Usually, a companies’ bike line will range from about $300-$1000. They go up in quality with each price increase. Fiends’ most expensive bike maxes out at around $710. This is enough to really hurt your pockets, but it does offer a really high-quality shredding machine.

Type R Frame Geometry
A: Top Tube Length: 20.75″ – Learn what size is right for you here.
This is a medium toptube.
Perfect for riders that are between 5’6″ to 5’8″
B: Chain Stay Length: 13” – Learn About Chain Stays Here
This is a medium chain stay designed to balance tech and flow riding.

Steep head tube angles make the bike “snappy” meaning more responsive to fast turns.
A less steep head tube gives you more control.
D: Seat Tube Angle: 71°
E: Bottom Bracket Height: 11.75″
F: Stand over height: 8.5″
This is a medium standover.
A tall standover gives you more stability and will make bars, and t-bogs easier.
Why is it so expensive?
The Type R has a list of quality parts making it well worth $700. The fact that any rider could get this bike and ride hard without destroying it, is a win. Here are the parts that make it killer!

All of these parts are strong and “aftermarket“. Meaning that they will outlast most other general complete bikes. I have ranked this as a “pro-level” bike. Pro-level bikes can hold up even if a pro hops on it. That’s why it’s a crazy expensive bike.
