FRAME
Let’s just call this the Eon’s little brother. You get all of the same features, quality, and looks of the 20” version in a perfectly scaled down size that’s suitable for younger riders. Key specs like the sealed mid bottom bracket, large tire clearance, high quality construction, and matte black paint are all accounted for.
HEADSET
Just like the 20” version, we use sealed angular contact bearing with replaceable headset cups. Now you get the high quality of a sealed integrated headset with a lower price tag.
WHEELS
It wouldn’t be an Eon without the color matched wheelset. In this 18” version, you still get the aero front rim, a 9T semi-sealed driver, and large 2.0” Kenda tires.
EXTRAS
All of the Eon 18’s parts from the frame to the grips have been scaled down to provide a perfectly proportioned ride.
You get smaller bars, mini mushroom grips with DUO Resilite bar ends, and a mini stem to complete this unique bike.
