Meet the new Seeker X16

The Seeker X16 is a premium 16" hardtail bike designed for young riders ready to take on real trails. Featuring RST F1RST 60mm air suspension forks and a lightweight, trail-optimized frame geometry, the X16 delivers superior control, comfort, and handling. Sealed bearing wheels with bolt-thru axles provide strength and smooth rolling performance, while wide Kenda Booster 2.2" tires offer excellent grip on varied terrain. Reduced-diameter grips ensure a secure, comfortable hold for smaller hands. With gear compatibility for future upgrades and a refined chain-driven drivetrain using a new 90mm chainset, the Seeker X16 offers improved pedal efficiency for growing riders who are ready to go further.

The Full Story

A performance optimised aluminium frame

Built for performance, the Seeker X16 features a butted aluminium hardtail frameset with a that’s precision engineered to take big hits like a champ.
The frame tubing has been deliberately crafted to balance strength (at the pressure points) with lightness (everywhere else), to ensure we don’t add unnecessary weight or hinder progress.
Threaded thru axles ramp up frame stiffness while sliding dropouts enable handing and size adjustments as little riders progress.
To top it off, we added internal cable routing because a bike this slick demands it.

A low, slack and short geometry

That’s the assignment and we understood it.

The Seeker X16 is built for performance with a geometry optimised for speed, technical acumen and confidence on the gnarly bits.

The low centre of gravity keeps them balanced in the berms while the slack head tube angle takes (some of the drama) out of descending. The short seat stays give the bike a playful responsive feel (while also making manuals just a little easier to master).

A no fuss, full gas chainset

The chainring, crankset and single speed set-up give the Seeker X16 an awesome mix of performance, safety and pedalling efficiency that you simply won’t find on other bikes this size.

Narrow wide chain teeth stop the chain from flapping and slipping and work in harmony with shortened 90m cranks for pedalling efficiency.

The single speed set up saves weight while allowing little ones to give the trail their full attention.

Big kid forks, little kid bike

The Seeker X16 comes equipped with 60mm of smash proof front suspension courtesy of RST F1RST 16 forks. Featuring the same levels of adjustability typically found on much bigger kids’ bikes, the Seeker X16 can withstand pretty much anything little rippers decide to throw at it.

Fine tune the float with adjustable air suspension, compression and rebound to dial in their ride according to the demands of their skill set, terrain or current weight.

Gear ready and engineered for fast progression

The Seeker X16 is designed for rider and bike progression. As they improve, you’ll find their need for a few gears increases.

We supply the Seeker X16 gear-ready, with a separate mech hanger, gear routing and rear hub which allows the addition of a small ratio cassette.

This allows them to learn the fundamentals of gear shifting in a bike they’re comfortable with. And it allows you to eek out way more value from a bike that’s already designed to last a lifetime.

MTB wheels that go hard

Fully sealed bearing hubs, double wall rims and optimised spoke count means these wheels rip. Because there’s no point spec'ing 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 thru axles make the rare times you do need to swap tyres a breeze.

Kenda grip for the win

Big adventure requires big tyres and we’re not playing around when it comes to speccing the Seeker X16.

Whether you’re navigating mud, berms, ruts or roots, our 2.25" knobbly tyres deliver traction, control and protection.

And everyone knows that tan wall tyres just look better.

Light, powerful hydraulic disc brakes

At 65g, the 140mm hydraulic powered disc rotors mean business. Because sending it 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 features a lightweight, and most importantly, adjustable action to accommodate small 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.
