Thredbo Resort announces landmark partnership

Thredbo Resort will partner with Specialized Bicycles for the 2025/26 mountain bike season. As Australia’s only lift-accessed mountain bike park, Thredbo MTB said it is proud to align with a brand equally committed to innovation and progression in the sport. Together, Thredbo and Specialized will work to grow mountain biking in Australia while elevating the rider experience at every level. As part of the partnership, Specialized becomes Thredbo’s official rental fleet partner, fully integrating their latest bikes and technology into the resort’s offering. Riders will have the chance to experience a brand-new fleet of Specialized bikes this season, including the all-new Specialized Stumpjumper 15 EVO, Specialized Status 170 and Specialized Status DH. The collaboration also extends to Thredbo’s signature mountain bike events, including Cannonball MTB Festival, Australian MTB Interschools, and the Gravity Series, giving riders of all ages and disciplines more opportunities to connect with the Specialized brand. Tim Windshuttle, Thredbo Partnerships & MTB Business Manager, says the partnership is a natural fit. “Specialized has a reputation for innovation and performance, making them the perfect fit for Australia's premier mountain bike park," he said. "Having their latest bikes in our rental fleet means everyone from first timers to seasoned riders can experience world-class technology on our trails. "Beyond the rentals, we're stoked to team up with Specialized across our events and look forward to rolling out some exciting collaborations that will elevate the mountain bike scene in Australia even further." Specialized Australia & New Zealand Marketing Manager, Tim Webster, says they are looking forward to bringing their innovation and performance to every rider who visits Thredbo. “We’re proud to partner with Thredbo, a resort with deep roots and significance in the Australian mountain bike landscape. We are very excited by their ongoing investment in new trails and park development which shows a real commitment to growing the sport, and through this collaboration we have an incredible opportunity to connect with riders right on the mountain," says Mr Webster. Thredbo MTB Park opens for its 25/26 summer season on November 22, with Specialized joining the opening weekend celebrations. Guests can look forward to exciting activations and the chance to test ride a huge demo fleet, including the all-new Specialized Turbo Levo 4.
