Looks like a proper mountain bike

It may come as something of a surprise to you (well, it did to me) to hear that Frog Bikes ‘only’ dates back to 2013. It feels like it has been around for a lot longer than that. What does this mean? I have no idea. Maybe it’s testament to how the company hit the ground running with a clear remit and wellexecuted range of bikes. It didn’t feel like a newcomer.

That’s not to say that Frog Bikes hasn’t changed over the years. It almost has a range refresh as frequently as big brand adult bikes do. Every couple of years or so, Frog Bikes revisits its geometries (in 2014, 2016 and 2020–21 so far). And every year sees at least one or two new components being specced.

The most recent significant component improvements include new brake levers, off-road tyres and better gear cabling (all 2020), and the FrogFit suspension fork (in 2019). The Frog MTB 62 featured here is its 24 inch wheel mountain bike with 60mm travel suspension fork, hydraulic disc brakes and 11–40T 9-speed drivetrain. It’s also available with red decals and cabling, as well as the blue seen here.
