The Hellion X24 is built around a triple-butted aluminium full-suspension frame featuring a precision CNC’d chainstay yoke. It includes a 100mm DNM rear shock adjustable up to 125mm, paired with 120mm of front suspension to deliver smooth and precise trail response. Its long, low, and slack geometry promotes stability, rider confidence, and agile handling. Performance is further enhanced by a narrow-wide chainring, forged cranks, and SDG junior-specific touchpoints. Equipped with RST F1rst forks offering adjustable air pressure, compression, and rebound, this bike is engineered for advancing skills on demanding trails.
A race optimised full suspension aluminium frame
Designed for high performance, the Hellion X24 boasts a triple-butted dual suspension monolink frame with a CNC-machined chainstay yoke engineered to withstand heavy impacts like a pro. Its 100mm DNM rear shock works seamlessly with 120mm front travel to offer exceptional trail feedback, smoothing roots, rocks, and large drops. The frame’s tubing strategically balances strength at critical points while minimizing weight where it isn’t needed. Threaded thru-axles enhance frame stiffness, and sliding dropouts allow for adjustability in handling and sizing as the rider develops. Internal routing for a stealth dropper completes the setup, emphasizing a focus on rider progression.
Long, low and slack
The Hellion X24 is engineered for high performance, featuring geometry tailored to enhance speed, technical skill, and rider confidence on challenging terrain. Its low center of gravity maintains balance through berms, while the slack head tube angle softens descents for a smoother ride. Short seat stays contribute to a lively, responsive handling experience, making tricks like manuals easier to learn and master.
A no fuss, full gas chainset
The Hellion X24’s crankset and single-ring design deliver an exceptional balance of performance, safety, and pedaling efficiency rarely found in bikes its size. Its narrow-wide chainring prevents chain drop, while paired with forged aluminium direct mount cranks to ensure optimal power transfer exactly when it counts.
Anatomically designed cockpit
The Ritchey Jr cockpit is ergonomically crafted to support rider progression and precise control. A proper fit enhances steering accuracy and stability, while lock-on grips prevent slipping in wet and muddy conditions. The Hellion X24 also features an SDG Fly junior saddle and SDG Slater pedals, combining durability and performance for challenging trails with a sleek, stylish appearance.
Big kid forks for big hitters
The 120mm RST F1rst forks with a 15mm thru-axle offer the same advanced adjustability found on larger bikes while maintaining the responsiveness required by lighter riders. Adjust air pressure, compression, and rebound settings to fine-tune the ride and adapt to a growing rider’s needs.
Lightweight, adjustable brakes
Renowned for its lightweight design, consistent modulation, extensive adjustability, and outstanding reliability, Shimano’s Deore MT600 brakes are a standout choice. Their predictable braking response provides smooth control, helping to avoid abrupt stops, while the 160mm 6-bolt rotors deliver the stopping power bold young riders require for confident, aggressive riding.
A Shimano Deore drivetrain
The Shimano Deore 1x11 drivetrain offers a durable, efficient, and versatile performance, combining simplicity with high functionality. Its low-maintenance design reduces weight without compromising reliability. Renowned for smooth and precise shifting, lightweight construction, and robust durability, Shimano Deore remains the preferred drivetrain for many professionals.
MTB wheels that go hard
These wheels are built to perform with fully sealed bearing hubs, tubeless compatibility, double-wall rims, and optimized spoke counts. Sealed bearings protect against mud, water, and corrosion, while double-wall rims provide added strength and confidence on rocky and root-filled trails. The optimized spoke count minimizes the risk of wheel buckling, and thru-axles make tire changes quick and hassle-free when needed.
