THE BIKE

Downhill geometry and big travel in a kid‑sized package

The Supreme XS is a pure downhill machine built with 27.5" wheels and 200 mm of travel, outfitted for aggressive riding while keeping a compact, controllable chassis for junior riders.

THE FIT

Sized for growing gravity riders

The model is intended for riders roughly 140–158 cm tall — a dedicated option for juniors who want a true DH bike with a double‑crown setup and the damping to roll over technical sections.

THE RENTAL PACKAGE

Comprehensive protective kit and daily service

Åre Skidsport supplies the protective essentials with each rental — helmet, knee pads, upper‑body protection, gloves and a jersey — and the bikes are checked and serviced every day.

What the day feels like

What it feels like to ride

Mounted on the Supreme XS you get a lively, confidence‑inspiring downhill ride: enough suspension travel to absorb drops and rock gardens, combined with a compact frame that keeps the bike playful and manageable for smaller riders. It’s built to let juniors attack steeper, more technical terrain with a bike scaled to their size.
