Does the idea of blazing down an off-road trail on two wheels excite you? If so, then you might want to consider purchasing a top of the line cross-country bike, with the required suspension, durability, and traction for pursuing all sorts of countryside adventures. These bikes are built for maximum speed and agility. Cross Country (XC) Bikes have a narrow handlebar which is quick to steer around corners and enables the rider to control the front wheel much better because they actually FEEL what it is doing.
