CHECK OUT THE FRS
The FRS Essential Pure White is designed for the thrill-seekers who crave the adrenaline of New Zealand’s most iconic freeride locations. Whether you’re conquering the gnarly descents of Queenstown Bike Park, or shredding the volcanic soil of Whakarewarewa Forest, this downhill bike is built to perform. With its 27.5" wheels, the FRS delivers unparalleled grip, making it ideal for both steep technical runs and big air sessions.
Optimise your ride with the adjustable suspension insert, allowing you to switch between "Sensitive" for maximum grip or "Responsive" for a more agile feel, perfect for tackling fast-paced trails like those at Makara Peak or Christchurch Adventure Park. This bike was also a key part of Brett Rheeder’s winning setup at Red Bull Rampage 2022, so you know it's built for the toughest challenges.
HOW TO ADJUST THE KINEMATICS
COMMENCAL FRS ESSENTIAL PURE WHITE – Freeride Performance for New Zealand's Epic Trails
Equipped with FOX RACING SHOX suspension, featuring the FOX 40 Performance fork and Float X2 Performance shock, the FRS guarantees a smooth and controlled ride, regardless of your size or preferences. Whether you’re dropping into Skyline Rotorua Gravity Park or navigating the rugged alpine terrain of Cardrona, this suspension system has you covered.
The TRP DH-R Evo brakes with 203mm discs ensure reliable stopping power, giving you confidence on the demanding tracks of Craigieburn Forest Park or Nelson's Wairoa Gorge. The SRAM GX DH transmission offers precise gear shifts, even under the most intense conditions, making it a reliable choice for New Zealand’s premier freeride spots.
With SPANK Spike Race 33 rims and reinforced hubs, you can ride with peace of mind knowing your wheels are built for durability. And to top it off, the MAXXIS Assegai and Minion DHRII tyre combo with DH casing provides superior grip and performance, perfect for the varied terrains of New Zealand’s bike parks.
