The Juice
4130
The Juice is built from quality 4130 chromoly steel tubing. Chromoly is an abbreviation for chromium-molybdenum indicating the materials that the steel is alloyed with.
The added chromium helps increase the steels hardenability and also provide some corrosion resistance. The molybdenum helps to increase the toughness of the steel.
It has a high tensile strength but is also malleable which is what gives our frames their notorious ride quality and feel. Chromoly is often used when more strength is required than that of mild carbon steel.
It falls under the AISI (American Iron & Steel Institute) 41XX designations which is where the “41” comes from. The “30” indicates it contains approximately 0.30% carbon by weight.
Chromoly is much stronger than traditional 1020 steel and it has a higher strength to weight ratio and high tensile strength, which means we can use less material and achieve a product that can withstand the abuse that riders love to throw at it.
The Juice is for all the little shredders out there who just can’t wait to be big enough to get on a Monk.
key features
You can expect the same high quality and features that we put into the Monk, like the great ride feel of our 4130 cro-mo steel tubing, and head-to-toe Chromag components including our new kid’s specific Vanguard handlebar.
Like all our products, the Juice was designed with durability and serviceability in mind.
The Juice is made by a skilled team of frame builders in our factory in Taiwan, who are renowned for their work on the Monk.
It is also poured over with care and attention to detail by our skilled mechanics right here in Whistler, BC.
All Chromags now ship with our injection moulded chain stay protector to help keep the paint fresh and the noise low. These have an adhesive applied, but also slot for zip ties if they come unstuck years down the line, or if you want to apply it to another frame.
Yes, steel might be a little heavier than it's more flashy contemporaries, but these bikes are built to last.
Unlike aluminum frames (which have ticking clock the minute you start riding them), steel can theoretically last forever provided it's ridden within the scope for which it was intended.
Whether you get your bike in a box, or roll it out the front door here at Chromag HQ, you can rest assured your bike has been pored over with pride, and built with the utmost attention to detail by one of our extremely talented mechanics.
Threads are chased, seat tubes are reamed, head tubes are honed, fits are checked and checked again, all to make sure when you get your bike, everything is absolutely dialed.
The horizontal droputs with integrated chain tugs are a key feature on a bike like this. Not only do they make it easy to set single-speed chain tension, but they also
help to keep the rear wheel in place and aligned under pedal torque or even landing sideways (usually while learning 180’s and 360’s!).
It’s these little deisgn hits and features that make The Juice right at home on the pump track, dirt jumps or in the
skatepark.
Is it "juices" or "juici"?
geometry
We set about designing The Juice as we had more and more people asking for a high-quality, durable dirt jumper for kids, in 20” and 24” wheel sizes. We wanted to design a range especially for smaller rippers who ride at a high level and need a bike that is up to the task.

FAQ's
No, we designed the Juice around specific wheel sizes.
Changing wheel sizes does a terrible job of adjusting bike size, it really just makes the bike taller or shorter, which has very little to do with how a bike fits you.
A 2.2” Maxxis fits with appropriate room around it.
No, there are no ISCG mounts on the Juice.
All our frames can work with +/-10mm of fork travel. To generalise the geometry change is around a 0.5° slacker head tube and seat tube angle for every 10mm added.
We setup our complete Juice’s with a 52mm chain line
With a 52mm chainline (SRAM boost standard), the Juice can fit up to a 34-tooth chainring.
For context, most of us here are running a 30t, with a 10/52 cassette.
The fork on the Juice has pressure recommendations on a sticker on the lower leg, these are a great starting point.
It does, however the specific blend of steel we use (CR-MO) has very good corrosion resistant properties. You can further protect things internally if you live in a partially harsh area or have concerns. Fluid Film is our recommended product for this.
Hope and other large 4 piston brake calipers can be tight, Sram codes fit just fine. Given the bikes intentions it is not expected that many will want to fit the largest heaviest brakes to it. Please let us know if you have tried to fit a more obscure component and faced issues. .
Greasing you seat post prevents this issues, we strongly recommend re-greasing every 6 months at a minimum.
Not much! Here's what you need to do if we shipped your bike to you:
• Inflate tires to desired pressure. (Sealant is already installed)
• Install brake rotors, tightening bolts to 6.2Nm.
• Attach derailleur to frame, tightening to 9Nm making sure that the B-tension tab rests properly against the derailleur hanger stop.
• Grease headset bearings, install fork and handlebar, positioning the headset spacers above or below the stem according to rider fit.
• Align handlebar stem, preload headset and tighten stem pinch bolts to 8Nm.
• Install wheels, tighten axles.
• Install chain with quick link.
• Grease pedal threads and install pedals using pedal washers supplied.
• Adjust brakes, shifters, saddle position and height for personal preference.
• Set up suspension.
• Bed-in brakes. (Roll down a gentle gradient dragging one brake at a time. Avoid locking them up.)
• Go ride!
Note: If you had to Google "Nm", or you don't know which way to install your rotors, you should probably get a qualified mechanic to build your bike!
Here's what's been done:
• Chain length adjusted.
• Gears adjusted.
• Brakes set up and bled.
• Handlebar tightened to 6Nm.
• Grips tight on handlebar.
• Crankset tight, bottom bracket tight/adjusted.
• Saddle and seatpost tight.
• Seatpost greased *make sure to re-grease every 6 months!
• Tire sealant installed.
• Cassette tight.
