Downhill Mountain Biking (DH) is a time trial event held on a steep, rough terrain that often features jumps, rock gardens and other obstacles. Downhill bikes are heavy, strong, and feature front and rear suspension with over 8 inches (20 cm) of travel, to glide quickly over rocks and tree roots.

What is the difference between all mountain and cross country mountain bikes?
An AM bike is basically a cross between a XC and a DH MTB. Usually full suspension and long enough travel to take some fairly serious drops and jumps, but still light enough and with a gear ratio and a ride position that'll make it somewhat useful on the flat and during climbs. An AM bike is the best bike if you want to ride to the top, and do a decent descent. An XC bike will climb far better, but would suffer on the way down. The DH bike would be a pain to climb with, but be the best for the run down.

A cruiser bike is a bike that gives an upright riding postion, is usually blinged out, and is ridden rather sedately. MTBs are available in several different versions(XC, AM, DH), but basically they're about providing a compromise between ruggedness and rideability. Mountain bikes have much knobblier tires and usually have suspension, which is rarely available on cruisers. Mountain bikes are also used competitively.
