Frame performance decides the overall weight, stability and durability of a mountain bike.Aluminum alloy frame is the mainstream option for entry-level mountain bikes. It features light weight, good rigidity, corrosion resistance and easy daily maintenance, suitable for most light off-road, suburban trail and daily outdoor riding scenarios.In addition to alloy frames, FOXTER also provides carbon fiber frame mountain bikes for buyers with upgraded needs. Different frame materials cover entry to mid-level demands, meeting diversified market and wholesale requirements.After years of product iteration, FOXTER optimizes frame structure and geometry design to balance riding comfort and overall durability for beginner riders.

Wheel size directly affects flexibility and trafficability, which is very important for beginners.

FOXTER mountain bikes cover multiple mainstream sizes:26 inch / 27 inch / 27.5 inch / 29 inch, covering short, medium and tall rider groups, and adapting to different regional market demands.

For daily entry off-road riding, our mass-produced mountain bikes are equipped with 2.125 inch wide tires, with good grip and stable rolling performance, adapting to ordinary rough roads and outdoor leisure scenarios. Standard tire specification also brings convenience for later after-sales replacement and bulk procurement.

Beginner bikes focus on stable and mature accessories, reducing failure rate and maintenance difficulty.In terms of transmission, FOXTER is equipped with reliable and mature shifting systems. Individual entry models are fitted with Shimano groupset, realizing smooth gear shifting and meeting daily riding and light off-road demands.For the brake system, mainstream stable brake solutions are adopted to ensure stable braking performance in different weather and road conditions, improving overall riding safety for new cyclists.
