full suspension
Both-end spring system
Full suspension describes a bicycle (or other vehicle) with shock absorbers on both the front and rear wheels, as opposed to a hardtail with only front suspension.
The system absorbs impacts from rough terrain, improving control and comfort on trails: I upgraded to a full suspension mountain bike for the technical descents.
