The Reaction 240 SLX takes a deliberately minimalist approach in the name of performance. From the thinner handlebar and grips to the lightweight rigid carbon fork, we've sweated the details to make this a lightweight, fast, fun and safe bike for aspiring racers. 10-speed Microshift gears deliver crisp, accurate gear changes across a wide range. Light, powerful V-brakes offer plenty of stopping power. And confidence-inspiring, lively handling comes as standard. On your marks, get set...

Frame description
The Reaction 240 is made from the same kind of heat-treated 6061 aluminium tubes that you'll find on our performance adult bikes. We also use the same mechanical tube-forming process to adjust tube shapes for the best combination of strength and weight, as well as tyre clearance. There's a full carbon fork with thru axle, to save even more weight. Disc brake mounts and cable routing allow for the greater safety and stopping power of discs. And a replaceable derailleur hanger insures against expensive repairs in the event of minor mishaps
