The Yuma –
Propain are carrying over their smaller bikes again, this time they have specific parts made for these bikes like short cranks for example. They are also on the case designing specific narrower bars also. The Yuma above can be fitted with either 24″ or 26″ wheels.
The Frechdax –
The Frechdax is the smaller of the two bikes and it can be ridden with either 16″ or 20″ wheels. With the combo of the Frechdax and the Yuma, that is a large range of sizes covered for our keen younger riders.
We’re hoping to get one of the DH bikes on test in the near future, watch this space.
