What is the spangram in todays Strands?

Todays spangram is BICYCLE.

What are the theme words in todays Strands?

The theme words today are: FENDER, BRAKE, CHAIN, PEDAL, KICKSTAND, FRAME, SADDLE.

Oh, hey, theres the spangram: BICYCLE.

I see CHAIN in the upper right corner.

OK, so its probably bicycle parts.

BRAKE is to the left of CHAIN.

FENDER completes the upper half.

I see PEDAL in the bottom left.

FRAME is in the center of the puzzle.

Strands is newer and still in beta, so its not yet in the NYT Games app.

Your job is to find the hidden words within the board that reflect the puzzles theme.

When you find the spangram, it will be highlighted in yellow.

Solving the spangram usually makes the rest of the puzzle much easier to complete.

There is only one correct solution.
