Thunderflash C Gunmetal

If you could take all of the elements that we loved about the enduro bikes we`ve tested in the last two seasons and merge them into one bike, it`s likely you`d end up with something like the Prime Thunderflash.

The Prime Thunderflash is an excellent enduro bike that is not only fast but also a lot of fun to ride. The rear suspension works excellently and provides the necessary traction without ever feeling mushy. Combined with the successful geometry, it results in a precise, intuitively rideable race enduro...

Thanks to its comfort, the bike lends itself well to long days in the saddle and is a very capable climber. It’s a ton of fun on flowing jump trails and really comes into its own on technical, high-speed descents.

Thunderflash

Feature 01

INTEGRATED PROTECTION

The essence of a perfect bike is a combination of great design and exceptional performance. Protection design is one of the elements which defines them. Prime frame protection has been developed with extra care not only to ensure maximum protection in all critical areas, but also to get full integration with the frame shape.

Thunderflash

PRIME IS A REFLECTION OF FUNCTIONALITY AND BEAUTY. PRIME RIDING CHARACTERISTICS ARE ACHIEVED THROUGH PERFECTLY BALANCED GEOMETRY AND PROGRESSIVE KINEMATICS WHICH MAKES IT THE ULTIMATE WINNER.

LEVERAGE RATIO

ANTI SQUAT

Leverage ratio

Our suspension design represents a balanced amount of overall progressivity throughout the whole travel. The 30-40% sag zone gives you the best platform to push and place the bike wherever you want with agility, after sag the leverage stays progressive helping you to take advantage of all the suspension travel till the bottom out.

Questions about product

What is S.H.R.E.D Dynamics?

The purpose of our bikes is to push the limits and break the boundaries. We developed our frames with one goal in mind - boost confidence and get to the next level. We love going fast and we love racing. Sometimes racing against the clock, sometimes racing against ourselves. Our bikes are the perfect tool for this. To create this kind of bike we came to the conclusion that all its components have to be designed with this idea in mind. To achieve this we had to create a BALANCED environment not just between components and materials but above all between kinematics and geometry. To name a few details, head angle at the right spot for 29” front wheel to maximise bike stability but prevent from understeering, long swingarm to offer central body position on the bike, short head tube to move the body weight forward and increase front wheel traction, the right BB Drop defined at SAG point for better agility.
