E-550x16 Features

Design: The E-550x16 has been ergonomically 'up-sized' from the E-500x16 to suit a bigger kids' frame, including bigger wheels. The lightweight Alloy frame is customised to reduce weight and improve handling. We have also fitted the strongest wheels we could find, with more spokes for strength - 36 per wheel, eyelit rims and excellent quality stainless steel spokes.  We know it won't completely remove problems with buckled wheels, kids are kids after all, but this will save time for fix-ups!

Another crucial ingredient to the clever design is the improved control and bump dampening ability of our CRM forks - giving a dramatic advantage in handling and comfort.

Performance: On the E-550x16, we have gone for the best gear system possible. We use the direct pulling 1:1 SRAM gears, so every movement reflects the same movement in the derailer - so what you feel in the lever is exactly what is happening down in the back of the bike. Instead of the mainstream 3 x 7 gears readily available, we have chosen 1:1 SRAM 2 x 8 option gears.  The 8 rear gear system has incredible range, suitable for all terrains, and giving the rider the best system when they need it the most. It is simpler and easier to use, less prone to misuse and is also lighter and lower maintenance

Safety: The custom-sized V-Brakes we have used are calibrated for power and ergonomic fit. The innovative frame improves balance and control to help each rider operate at the safest level possible.

Colours: Pearl White/Sublime Lime, Pearl White/Dark Blue
