Description

From the manufacturer

 

The Prevelo Zulu Five packs high performance mountain bike features into a 26-inch wheel size package. Every component is the real deal and is carefully chosen to provide the best performance and fit for young riders ready to tear up the trails.

 

Features

 

Geometry  

Confidence inspiring trail geometry
The Zulu Five features Prevelo's signature confidence-inspiring geometry. Prevelo geometry utilizes a low bottom bracket that lowers the center of gravity of the bike and rider, making for a more agile and confident ride. The slack front end makes the bike forgiving to young trail riders experimenting with tough terrain. 

 

Wheels  

Lightweight tubeless-ready Heir wheels
Wrapped with Kenda Booster Pro tires, the HEIR wheels can easily be set up tubeless so you can reduce flats, improve traction, and shave another ~300 grams of weight. The sealed cartridge thru-axle hubs make these wheels some of the fastest and most reliable wheels found on any bike. The quick-engagement rear hub sounds awesome and helps riders navigate tricky terrain. 

 

Crankset  

Youth-optimized Heir® crankset
HEIR® crank lengths are custom sized for each bike to make sure little riders have optimum pedal ergonomics. And, they have ultra-narrow Q-factors to match the narrow hips of young cyclists. If that sounds like technical mumbo jumbo, here's the point — HEIR cranks will help make small riders more comfortable and efficient on their bike. 

 

Saddle  

Pivotal saddle
The Pivotal system lowers the stack height of the seat, resulting in a 30mm lower seat. This helps get small riders on big wheels. This system also helps reduce weight and increase durability. 

 

Drivetrain   Lightweight wide range drivetrain
Microshift's Advent X AM Clutch Rear Derailleur paired with their ultralight 10-speed G-Series 11-48T cassette, and easy-to-use trigger shifters gives progressing riders plenty of gear range to tackle a variety of trails. UDH compatible frame works with a wide range of current and future drivetrains.
