Highlights Neuron Young Hero

Pint sized performance

The coolest bike on the trail

With a paint job inspired by Fabio Wibmer, his fun machine is made for adventure. It’s specced with high-quality parts including compact brake levers, smaller cranks and the same trail geometry as the full-size Neuron.

Tuned for smaller riders

More control = more fun. For the increased suspension sensitivity and response that smaller riders need, we lightened the suspension, dropped the travel to 130 mm, and ship the bike with a kid-specific shock tuning.

Key features

Triple Phase Suspension

Triple Phase Suspension delivers incredible control and feel on the trail. Small-bump sensitivity for plenty traction. Mid-stroke stability for speed and momentum. And on big hits the suspension ramps up progressively to avoid bottoming out.

Improved cable routing

For hassle-free maintenance, we’ve updated the Neuron AL’s internal cable routing. Cables run straight from the rear to the front. Just insert the cable at the rear end and watch it pop out at the head tube. Simple. The new system prevents bending and it’s sealed against water and mud. Rattling? Not at all, as the cables run through foam tubes.

Integrated chainstay protection

The Neuron’s integrated chainstay protector keeps the frame safe and in pristine condition and also eliminates annoying chain slap noises. We also manufactured it with a specific type of rubber that reduces chain slap noises to an absolute minimum.

Universal derailleur hanger

Gone are the days of having to hoard multiple derailleur hangers when you buy your bike, or desperately searching for a knock-off replacement when your derailleur takes a ding and your hanger needs replacing. SRAM’s Universal Derailleur Hanger is available at canyon.com and is super easy to replace with a single screw.
