The shop's feature list
- DESCRIPTION This bike can give you more fun in the bikeparks than you could ever imagine, won’t kill your budget, and let you save some cash for the bikepark lifts.

- THUNDERBIRD FR- GENERAL INFO
- FR stands for freeride , and this is what you should do with this bike. A new Thunderbird FR frame sits on 27.5" wheels, as they are easier to get than 26" nowadays. Coil or air - it is your choice where you want to play with it. We designed it for bikepark laps with friends that choose double black diamonds for a warm-up run.
