Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go downhill being on a high gear, you could lose control of the bike, because of the fact going downhill makes you go a lot faster than going uphill, if you go in high speed downhill it could also lead to your chain breaking of your bike. So it would be a false statement. ( also the wind speed going downhill would be higher which, yet again, you can lose control...)

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

when going down hill you want to use a low gear so it will hold you back and you don't have to ride your breaks. If you go down in high gear your bike will speed up and you can lose control and wreck.
