Moritz20
Trail-optimised cockpit
The lightweight handlebars from VPACE, combined with the 40 mm stem from Reverse, ensure safe and controlled handling in every riding situation. Gear changes are made using a smooth-shifting Sram X5 trigger shifter, whilst braking is handled by the reliable Magura MT4 disc brakes. The 1-finger HC aluminium brake levers can be perfectly adjusted to fit smaller children’s hands and offer precise control and maximum braking power with minimal effort.
Smooth-shifting gearbox with a wide gear range
Whether climbing steep hills or racing downhill – with the robust SRAM X7 9-speed rear derailleur, young riders can change gears precisely, smoothly and reliably, whatever the terrain. Thanks to the wide gear range of the Microshift ADVENT 11-38 cassette, the right gear is always available in every situation, ensuring the riding fun never falls by the wayside.
Lightweight aluminium frame with a single-pivot rear suspension and Enduro geometry
The lightweight Moritz frame, made from 6061 aluminium, has been specially developed for young riders: with tube dimensions suitable for children, low weight and a robust construction for full trail performance. The modern enduro geometry, with a slack head angle (65°) and a short rear end, ensures agility and flow off-road, as well as maximum fun on the descents. Both the Moritz20 and Moritz24 feature a lightweight, low-maintenance single-pivot rear suspension system. Thanks to the special ‘Kids Tuned’ shock tuning and a cleverly positioned pivot point, the rear suspension system operates very sensitively, efficiently and without interfering with pedalling. This makes the Moritz perfect for longer uphill rides too.
A child-friendly crank. Powerful and clever.
We have specifically tailored the lightweight VPACE SL children’s crankset to the anatomy of young riders with narrower hips. With a Q-factor of 150 mm, it allows for a natural leg position, resulting in greater pedalling efficiency and noticeably better power transfer. Thanks to the 3-hole direct mount, changing the chainring is a matter of seconds. And because the crank length also has a major influence on power transfer and efficiency, we adapt it to the specific model size.
High-performance kids' suspension fork – Kids Tuned
The high-performance RST First Air suspension fork offers maximum comfort and control off-road. Featuring 100 mm of travel, it is specially tuned for the lighter weight of young trail riders – Kids Tuned. This gives it a particularly responsive feel and ensures top performance on the trail.
Shock absorbers for maximum trail performance – Kids Tuned
The fitted Manitou Mara shock, with 100 mm of travel, is perfectly tailored to the low body weight of young riders – Kids Tuned. It responds with exceptional sensitivity, offering efficient, finely controlled damping and progressive suspension, whilst ensuring outstanding traction, control and comfort on technical trails, fast descents and jumps.
The 29er principle combined with lightweight wheels
With the VPACE 29er concept, we use large wheels across all model sizes. For example, a child who is 110 cm tall can already ride our Moritz20 with 20-inch wheels. With other manufacturers, however, they would be on a 16-inch bike. Why does this make sense? Because larger wheels roll more efficiently, offer a smoother ride and clear obstacles more easily. Combined with our exceptionally lightweight VPACE WTB i25 SL wheels, young mountain bikers benefit from significantly better acceleration, greater efficiency and increased safety – whether on the trail, on tours or in races. They can be easily converted to tubeless on request.
Scope of application
The Moritz20 is a Category 3 mountain bike and is therefore ideally suited to rough trails, unpaved paths and technically challenging terrain. Jumps and drops of up to 60 cm are no problem, provided you have the right riding technique. The Moritz20 children’s full-suspension bike has been designed for a maximum rider weight of 35 kg.
The perfect size
The chart shows a recommendation based on body height. However, depending on your riding style, body proportions or personal preferences, a smaller or larger model may also be suitable. Simple adjustments, such as a longer or shorter stem, a different seatpost or the position of the saddle, allow you to tailor the bike perfectly to your needs.
