-The '''Mountain bike''' is a novelty vehicle in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. These [[Bicycles|bicycles]] are uncommon, as they don't spawn in as many places as the other bikes, and can be seen with pedestrians but it can be mistaken for a [[BMX]]. This bike is used in [[Mount Chiliad]] challenges 1-3. It is faster than any other bicycle in the game, but is not suitable for tricks or stunts, which will result in the player falling off most of the times, receiving damage to [[CJ]]. Overall, it is a good bike to ride when speed is an element, but [[Stunting|stunting]] is not recommended.
+The '''Mountain Bike''' is, as implied, a [[wp:Mountain bike|mountain bike]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]].
+== Description ==
+The Mountain Bike exists in the game as one of only three bicycles in GTA San Andreas, designed more for speed and power rather than nimbleness and abilities to execute bicycle tricks. Indeed, the Mountain Bike is the most capable in hill climbing; even if an incline is significantly steep, the player can tap the acceleration command while on a Mountain Bike can climb its slope with less effort than other bicycles. As mentioned, the Mountain Bike is less tailored for [[Stunting|stunting]], and only allows the player to execute moderately high bunny hops when the player can hop higher on a [[BMX]].
