Adventure made easier.

Meet the Seeker 24

The Seeker 24 is an adventure bike designed for youth riders aged 8-11 itching to progress on the trails. The lightweight, 9.95kg t 6061-grade aluminium frame and powerful 160mm hydraulic disc brakes gives them powerful climbing and confident descending in one very easy on the eyes package. A Box Four 1x9 drivetrain keeps the bike light and maintenance simple while
tubeless-ready MTB optimised wheels further enhance the fun. MTB-specific touchpoints, adjustable brake levels and saddle rails cater for fast growing riders, expending play for everyone.

Closer look

A beautifully crafted, hard as nails disc brake frame set

With its powerful hydraulic disc brakes, rigid forks and sliding dropouts the Seeker 24 puts some adult MTBs to shame.

The Seeker 24 is light and responsive thanks to the 6061-grade aluminium we spec all our bikes with. While the sliding dropouts give youth riders adaptable handling as they progress.

160mm hydraulic disc brakes give them the stopping power they can trust when the trail gets technical.

Simple, safe reliable, a drive train they can trust

The simple Box Four 1x9 speed groupset eliminates the need for a front derailleur, keeping the Seeker 20 reliable, low weight and easy to maintain.

The rear derailleur clutch keeps the chain firmly in place, preventing chain slap damaging the frame. Coupled with the top rated Samox chainset and super secure 152/30 tooth narrow wide chain, their chain isn’t going anywhere, even if they decide to go off piste.

Planted, confident and room to move

With its powerful hydraulic disc brakes, rigid forks and sliding dropouts the Seeker 24 puts some adult MTBs to shame.

The Seeker 24 is light and responsive thanks to the 6061-grade aluminium we spec all our bikes with. While the sliding dropouts give youth riders adaptable handling as they progress.

160mm hydraulic disc brakes give them the stopping power they can trust when the trail gets technical.

MTB wheels that go hard

Fully sealed bearing hubs, tubeless compatible, double wall rims and optimised spoke count means these wheels rip. Because there’s no point speccing a great bike with weak wheels.

The sealed bearings keep mud, water and corrosion at bay while double wall rims give you twice the confidence on rocks and roots.

The optimised spoke count means you won’t have to worry about buckled wheels while quick release axles makes the rare times you do need to swap tyres a breeze.

Touchpoints that elevate control

Every one of The Seeker 24’s MTB optimised touchpoints are built to save weight without compromising on comfort.

The SDG junior fly saddle rails and quick release seat clamp allow you to dial in their ride position, something that’s vital as they progress and grow.

You’ll also find Richey’s brilliant double butted, lightweight aluminium bars on all our Seekers.

Ritchey Logic have been at the forefront of component design for the past 50 years. We’ve collaborated with them for over a decade, producing some of the best age specific components to ever grace a kids’ bike.

Light, powerful hydraulic disk brakes

These 160mm hydraulic powered disc rotors mean business. Because sending it equally relies on stopping it. With partially rounded edges and 6 bolts you’re also guaranteed extra safety even when you’ve stopped.

The brake levers feature a lightweight, and most importantly, adjustable action to accommodate growing hands.

We also made the decision to replace the brake fluid with mineral oil. It’s less corrosive and a bit kinder on the environment.

Fantastic bike for off road beginner

This bike is amazing. My daughter loves it! The spec and geometry give her confidence when riding off road. My only suggestion to improve the bike is thru axles - just make sure you do up the QR tight enough in the drop outs.

Seeker 24 violett

Das Velo ist wunderschön und fährt sich bestens.

Für mich als Laie ist das Zusammenbauen des Velos sehr schwierig, ich habe es dem Velohändler gebracht, was natürlich etwas kostete. Sehr schade, dass man dieEearlyrider nur noch online bestellen kann und die Velos nicht bei Fachhändlern gekauft werden kann.

Aber jetzt, zusammengebaut, hat das Kind grosse Freude am sehr coolen Velo.

I did my research and I didn't get dissapointed by my bike choice

The Seeker's strenghts are the transmission (wide gear range and very low granny gear). Living in a hilly area, it was the first time in my daughter's life that she could eventually absolve on the bike the usual climbs she used to hike-a-bike on her erlier bike. We/I also love the minimalist look of the raw aluminium with very modest branding and enjoy the results of the attention the bike was pre-assembled with (the derailleur works as a charm). Most obviously we appreciate the quality components, the Ritchey handlebar, the aluminium flat pedals, the brakes, shifter, derailleur.

I miss, however, some of the more contemporary stuff: thru-axles, tubeless-ready tyres (possibly of a European brand), a carbon fork, more eyelets for mounting bags e.g. on the fork, top-tube, down-tube (both sides), internal cable routing. Weight could also be decreased a bit.

I chose the Seeker 24 versus a competitor's similar bike of exactly the same price for two reasons: the large cassette range and the modest look (don't really want to show off). In almost all other aspects the competition's bike is better: weights less by 10%, has a carbon fork, thru-axles, slightly less aggressive geometry, tubeless-ready tyres (and rims). Don't misunderstand me: this is not a statement suggesting that hat the Seeker is not good enough. I just want to say that there's some room for improving an already very good bike.

Nice ATB

Very nice bike. It's like a 24" kona unit but in AL and very lighweight !

One thing bothers me: rims are tubeless compatible but not tires ... I struggle and lost (no compressor) to setup them tubeless. Brand new tires ... we'll keep them with a tube, a bit of a shame

3rd EarlyRider

Hello, it's our 3rd EarlyRider. (Belter16, Seeker20) I was always happy with the last two bikes. To the 3rd one, I can not say anything. It's a Christmas present for my son. I'm looking forward to have a ride with him and his new bike next year. Have a nice evening. Best Regards Hannes.

Amazing bike and my kid loves it!!

It supposed to be "blemished" in some way but I couldnt find anything when unboxing so I was very happy with this purchase! My 7-year old son loves it and he rides it on trails, in the streets, gravel basically all terrain. We even spent a day at the downhill bikepark where he rode proper downhill on the bike. Maybe not the best bike for DH but he had a blast and didnt complain ;) My sons previous bike was 20inch and 1.5kg heavier and since we bought the seeker (this summer) his interest in riding bikes has exploded. He wants to ride mtb every single day and being a mtb:er myself I couldn’t be happier.
