is hero sprint next really a mtb bike?

Question

It says its a mtb bike

but i dont believe it.

Even if its not

can i use this bike for medium light mountain off road riding ? ;-)

Answer 1

I wouldn't use that bike for anything more strenuous than dropping off a curb. And even then I would be real careful to be out of the saddle to soak up as much impact as possible with my legs instead.

And if you do stay on roads, the horrible suspension will steal a lot of pedalling energy from you.

You're far better of finding a better, rigid bike instead of that sorry example of misguided marketing.

Answer 2

This sort of bike is pretty much useless for anything. They are not suitable for anything but a smooth unpaved road, but the mushy suspension will suck up your pedaling energy like a black hole. The low end components will be continually going out of adjustment and wearing out, and the bike will be heavy enough to make a good boat anchor. Waste of money

Answer 3

going with 'no' here

you can try it

but the wheels will be weak and subject to failing

suspension will be worse than useless

all parts will operate poorly and possibly break at bad times
