What’s a thread? Traditionally, it has a very specific use: it’s a thin cord of fiber used to make fabric. Thread series bikes have an equally specific use: skatepark, urban, and dirt jumping. What a Thread isn’t: it’s not a cross-country bike nor is it an all-mountain hardtail. They’re like BMX bikes for big kids; the ultimate play bikes.

Just one gear means less hassle and more fun. No rear derailleur hanging down to get in the way and no need to think about what gear you need to be in. Pure and simple. That’s what the Thread One is all about. Same great parts spec as the Thread Eight minus the shifter and rear derailleur. Hit the jumps without hitting your wallet.
