KROSS HEXAGON JR 1.0
Following the adult KROSS Hexagon models, we created the KROSS Hexagon Junior 1.0. It is a recreational kids' mountain bike that will be perfect both when traveling to school and during weekend family trips outside the city. The Kross Hexagon Junior 1.0 features adult technical solutions enclosed in a smaller frame adapted to kids' height.
The KROSS Hexagon Junior 1.0 version for 2022 has undergone subtle changes to make it even more accessible to children. This year, the drivetrain is made of high-quality components supplied by Shimano, enabling the youngster to ride comfortably in all conditions. It also offers numerous, smaller modifications to the frame structure, seemingly invisible at first glance, but significantly improving the comfort of riding.
The components are adapted to the young cyclist's needs
The components of the KROSS Hexagon Junior 1.0 were based on the concept of a 1x8 drivetrain. To create such a drivetrain, we used high-quality components supplied by Shimano. This allowed us to create a drivetrain with an eight-row cassette supported by the SHIMANO TOURNEY TX800 rear derailleur. Such a drivetrain will enable the young cyclist to complete comfortable rides in all terrains. The SHIMANO ALTUS M315 shifters have been adapted to kinds' hands, enabling them to be easily operated. A suspension fork with 50mm of travel was used in the bike to increase travel comfort. It has been specially developed for this bike. The KROSS Hexagon Junior 1.0 features 24” wheels with high quality 1.9” Mitas Scylla V75 tires, which will ensure predictable bike behaviour both in the city and off-road. It also features v-brakes, ensuring safe braking and trouble-free operation.
Technologies to keep you entertained every day
The KROSS Hexagon Junior 1.0 frame is made of performance aluminium. The performance aluminium 6061 alloy is characterized by high stiffness and fracture resistance, as well as the lightness typical of aluminium. This special 6061 aluminium alloy makes the bike stiff and durable. At the same time, it is a relatively light material that can surprise many cyclists with its properties. To make it easier for your young one to get on and off the bike, we have lowered the standover height. In addition, the frame is powder coated, which translates into durability of the paintjob and its resistance to mechanical damage.
