A proper pared-down carbon racer for junior rippers and young speed freaks

Even young riders know that speed wins races. It's the reason we developed the Elite 240 C:62 Pro, which takes everything we've learnt about building podium-capable racing mountain bikes and condenses it into pint-sized perfection. The full carbon frame and fork are just the lightweight start. We fitted Advent X 1x10 gears for their easy shifting, wide range and simple reliability. There's a headset limiter to prevent top tube damage in the event of a crash. A 12x100 thru axle up front and child-sized handlebars, grips and brake levers – with hydraulic discs – ensure accurate control at all times. And little touches like the ultra-lightweight Schwalbe Aerothan inner tubes and Newmen wheels are just the kind of details you'd expect from a thoroughbred.

Built from the same heat-treated 6061 aluminium tubes as the adult bikes, the Acid 240's frame is every bit as tough as a full-size mountain bike, but with the right weight and proportions for a child. There's a bottle mount for mid-ride refreshment and rack mounts, too. The handling is designed to be both fun and confidence-inspiring. And, because CUBE knows accidents can happen, they made the gear hanger easily replaceable so that a knock or crash needn't result in an expensive repair.
