full-suspension
Both wheels absorb
Full-suspension describes a bicycle with shock absorbers on both the front fork and rear frame, allowing both wheels to move independently over rough terrain.
The design improves traction and comfort on technical trails: a full-suspension mountain bike.
Contrast with hardtail, which has suspension only in front.
