Downhill mountain biking (DHMTB) is one of the more extreme subdisciplines of mountain bike cycling and has been shown to have an injury prevalence as high as 20/1000 hours competition. There is a lack of methodological homogeneity among the prospective injury surveillance studies conducted within DHMTB and across competitive cycling. The risk of injury and injury profile in DHMTB is poorly understood.
