The Frog Amazon 26"" has been made using a precision Steel frame. While Steel is known to be on the heavier side, the design of this bicycle and the welding on the frame contributes towards reducing the overall weight of this bicycle. The geometry of the frame ensures a comfortable, upright riding position. The frame is designed specifically for women, with a downward sloping top tube that enables easier mounting and dismounting.This bicycle comes equipped with a rigid suspension fork that is colour-coded with the frame. Additionally, the frame houses a mounting option for a water bottle cage. The bicycle is available in a single sizing option - 16"".

This Frog Amazon 26" is a straightforward single-speed bicycle. The bicycle is ideal for city commuting and leisure riding. The bicycle would require extra effort while using it on elevated areas in the city, like on flyovers or in cities with variable terrains. In today's world of technological advancements, straightforward single-speed bicycles are losing their base and the introduction of many such single-speed lines from manufacturers is reviving their popularity.

The Frog Amazon 26" has been designed keeping simplicity and the appeal of contrasting colours. The welding on the edges of the frame looked simple and neat.

The brake cables are colour-coded with the overall colour scheme of the bicycle.The handlebar on the Frog Amazon 26"" is wide enough to ensure a comfortable upright riding position. The width of the handlebar allows for superior control and maneuverability in crowded riding conditions. The handlebar grips felt slightly hard while on the test ride.
