Downhill mountain biking

This clip explores the appeal of mountain biking featuring a member of 'The Clan', Scotland's top downhill mountain biking team. We see how this fast and spectacular sport attracts racers as young as 13. It can be dangerous and riders have to wear appropriate protective clothing. The film also demonstrates how the bikes ridden by professionals are very specialised and feature sophisticated suspension forks and brakes.
