Kids love going fast. The Phenix C:62 Rookie SLX is built to take that enthusiasm and turn it into race course-devouring speed. Crafted from the same C:62® carbon as our adult race bikes, it boasts exactly the same features you'd expect to see on a World Cup athlete's bike. The Suntour Raidon 32 RL Air suspension fork is specially tuned for a child's lower weight, for the best-possible performance. Sram's Transmission T90 1x12 gears deliver a huge range and precise shifts. And Magura MT Thirty hydraulic disc brakes have all the power needed to bring the Newmen Performance 30 wheels – shod with Schwalbe Racing Ray and Racing Ralph 2.25in tyres – safely to a halt.

Frame

With its elegant lines and premium C:62® carbon construction, the Phenix C:62 frame even looks fast. That's because it IS fast. The organic flow of one tube into another isn't just for appearance – the carefully designed tube profiles are stiff where they need to be for efficient power transfer and accurate handling, and forgiving where comfort will improve rider performance. Semi-Internal Cable Routing goes with the minimalist aesthetic, whilst the UDH rear end is future-proof and an integrated seat clamp is both secure and extremely neat.
