Launching the VHP XS Frames
Kavenz was never accessible for riders under 165cm/5’5” and now we found a way to address some of aspects that were hard to solve for us. Resulting in the new XS size for riders from 155-165 (5’-5’5”).
After extensive research and development, we’re excited to offer this new geometry that promises a more comfortable and efficient ride for smaller riders.
What’s New with the VHP XS frame?
The VHP XS is a game-changer for smaller riders who’ve struggled to find the perfect fit. Here’s what makes it stand out:
Lower Standover Height: For smaller riders, a lower standover height means more confidence and control, especially on technical trails.
Shorter Reach: A shorter reach complements the standover height, offering a more natural and comfortable riding position.
Option for Full 27” Wheels: By focusing on 27” wheels, we’ve optimized the geometry to cater to smaller riders, enhancing agility and stability. The Full 27 design hits the sweet spot for smaller frames. However you can still use XS frame as MX using 140/140mm setup.
XS and S frame comparison
What’s the Difference Between XS and S frame?
In the shortest and simplest terms; XS with 420mm reach is 20mm shorter, Stack is 22mm lower, and Standover Height is 20mm lower.
Wheel options:
Full 27 Option: Rear 140/160, Front 160-180.
MX Option: Rear 140, Front 140.
A Small Sacrifice for a Big Gain
To achieve this ideal fit, we’ve made a small sacrifice: the new frame design no longer accommodates our large water bottles. Instead, you’ll have space for a 500ml bottle.
Preproduction Frames Available Soon
We’re excited to offer a limited preproduction run of the VHP XS frames. We’ll be sneaking 5-10 of these frames into the next batch, set to ship from mid-October. This is your chance to be one of the first to ride the XS Kavenz bike.
The Future of XS frames
At this moment we offer XS frames as a semi-custom option, and if we feel demand for the XS frames, they might go into regular production.
