FeaturesTrail X2's frame is made of lightweight-but-strong 6061 series aluminum featuring over-sized, ovalized & tapered tubing for increased frame strength and a 34.9mm seat tube to assure a stiffer pedaling platform. The Trail X2 is offered in 8 sizes, assuring the best possible customer fit for optimal handling and enhanced comfort. Our smallest 12" frame size is especially suitable for junior riders. This frame size can comfortably & safely fit taller kids as young as 9 or 10. With the Trail X's larger diameter 26" wheels and 300mm seat post with quick-release clamp, this bike will last them for years. The RST Gila-T suspension fork delivers 100mm of coil-sprung suspension travel with an MCU elastomer bumper that smoothes fork bottom-out. With a lightweight alloy crown and lowers and stout 28.6mm steel stanchions for stiffness, strength and a straight-tracking front wheel, this fork will deliver ride after ride. Aheadset's patented threadless steering system not only saves weight, but pre-loading the headset bearings for optimal steering precision is much easier than on standard threaded headsets. The spoke bed of the Alex TD25 rims is reinforced to resist disc brake torque. Under braking load, hubs will twist, which increases spoke tension on some of the spokes, which in turn exerts greater pull on the nipples. Reinforcing the spoke bed prevents these braking loads from pulling the nipples through the rim. The 26 x 1.95" Jamis TX tires on all our Trail X-series bikes are from the same manufacturer that produces Maxxis tires: one of the most respected names in off-road rubber in the business. Disc brakes stop great in all conditions & increase wheel longevity by eliminating the rim sidewall from the brake system. The X2's 24-speed Shimano EZ-Fire Plus drivetrain features a Shimano Acera rear derailleur, alloy 42/34/24 crankset & Shimano 11-32 cassette for smooth shifting, easy climbing & secure descents. The X2 cassette freehub rear hub, with hub bearings further outboard on the axle than on a standard rear hub threaded to accept a freewheel, provides greater bearing support to the axle for increased strength and durability. Sealed cartridge bottom brackets reduce maintenance time and expense. The Trail X-series ATB saddle with front & rear protective guards offers plenty of comfort, durability & style.
