I've played about half an hour of this. Pretty fun! Does the hard stuff with the big jumps become more manageable with a better bike or is it a case of throwing yourself down a cliff 20+ times until you manage it?

Better bikes make a lot of the big jumps easier. From memory the Trailblazer means you can start enjoying yourself a little; the Boar you can throw off literally anything and mostly survive, which enables you to attempt the repeat the throwing yourself down a cliff 20 times manoeuvre on some even more optimistic drops :)
The Guardian review sums up my feelings about it quite well, and mentions the night rides which are a mildly tricky unlock and refresh the game when you just think you've got to grips with it.

I found the second bike was a major step up in handling big drops. Not a fan of what looks to be increasing difficulty by adding in more blind jumps/having to memorise the course (the latter already being taken care of by the night courses). But having fun with it regardless!

If you’re going Game Pass, Lonely Mountains: Downhill is definitely worth a go. Sort of a platformer? Simple to control, but v satisfying. I have been putting a lot of time into it lately.
