FRED265 Kids Downhill Bike
The FRED265 Kids Downhill Bike fits riders from approx. 1.45 m height, offers 160 mm travel and is designed as a Mini Mullet with 27.5" front and 26" rear.
FRED is a bike for kids designed from the ground up for downhill use. The geometry with the 63er steering angle, low bottom bracket and the plushe but still jumpfreudige rear end with kinematics specially developed for low body weights appeals to young racers in the Junior DH series such as the IXS Rookies Cup and Bikepark Shredder.
As usual with VPACE, attention was also paid to the weight. The FRED265 weighs approx. 13.6 kg - and that with Bomb Proof full equipment. The progressive geometry, the well thought-out equipment and the special kinematics make the FRED definitely unique.
