The 2025 is built on an incredible heritage of carrying some of the top
minicycle pilots to multiple national championships over the past decade. Cobra Elite
Team graduates like Chase Sexton, Austin Forkner, Pierce Brown, Jett Reynolds,
Casey Cochran, and Drew Adams helped develop this bike into the fastest, lightest, and
best handling 65cc bike on the planet, and current rippers including Jaydin Smart and
Kannon Zabojnik are putting the CX65 on top of the box at tracks around the world.

✓ All-new sleek and lightweight swingarm with forged aircraft aluminum side arms.
✓ Easy to swap top chain guard.
✓ Precision-fit shift mechanism.
✓ Rear brake-snake.
✓ Improved swingarm thrust bearing dust seal.
✓ Easy-to-maintain suspension pivot points and engine electronics.
Highlights for 2025:
“FANG VALVE” Engine: Cobra’s exclusive multi-stage computer-controlled exhaust power
valve produces a tractable torque curve that lets the rider carve inside lines and enables less
shifting. When both stages are fully open, the new engine unleashes a barrage of horsepower
that both gobbles up straightaways and the competition.
Hybrid Oval Twin Spar/Backbone Frame: The CX65 chassis is lightweight, handles like it’s on
rails, and exhibits great track feel thanks to a 4130 CroMo steel casting that’s integrated into the
head tube structure.
World Class Ergonomics provide a slimmer, flatter seat for easier fore-aft transitions and
accommodation for a larger range of rider size.
CARD front and rear brake system: World-class feel and responsiveness.
Twin radiator system improves cooling, reduces power loss to heat, and increases ground
clearance.
CARD rear shock features high and low speed compression adjustment and adjustable
rebound damping. The shock tucks in tightly for a slim mid-section.Quick change air filter with vertical orientation reduces the chance dirt encroachment into the
engine.
Air boot/Air box design provides over 2x the volume of clean air between the filter and the
carburetor resulting in more power everywhere.
Ergonomic hand holds that make lifting the bike easier both at the starting gate and onto the
stand.
Breakaway Low-Friction Ergonomic Levers: Both the clutch and front brake feature high
quality levers that are designed to give rather than break during a tip-over.
Revolutionary MXT “Smart Leg” Front Fork: Cobra’s exclusive 37mm USD CARD fork is
designed to be the finest fork in minicycle racing! Cobra’s innovative design simultaneously
provides supple action over small bumps, and progressive control through the biggest of hits. A
feature especially important for minicycles that run on tracks torn up by bikes twice their size.
This fork also features fully adjustable rebound and compression damping and bottoming
control adjustment not found on any other fork, of any size, and it is built on spring cartridge
architecture that’s ready to tackle the toughest terrain right out of the crate.
Super Strong Hollow Front Axle: Complimenting the CARD 37mm front fork is Cobra’s hollow
axle and full-clamp fork bottoms. Works equipment right off the showroom floor.
Titanium: Cobra is bringing works level goodies to the minicycle market! The 2025 CX65
features a super strong and lightweight Titanium rear axle and swingarm pivot. Additionally,
we’ve included all aluminium fastening hardware to the mix.
Forged Aircraft Grade Aluminium Triple Clamps with Integrated Bar Mount: These clamps
are lightweight, impart low clamping forces into the fork tubes for improved suspension action,
and they provide a clamping feature onto the steering stem for improved steering feel.
Dunlop Geomax MX34 Intermediate-Terrain Tires: A high-end bike deserves high-end tires.
The 2025 CX65 will be outfitted with Dunlop Geomax MX34s front and back. Enhanced grip,
improved slide control, and a larger contact patch with the ground all add up to reduced lap
times. No corners cut here!
VP Racing - Factory Fill: Cobra and VP Racing have teamed up to ensure that each Cobra
model comes with the finest lubricants and chemicals. This includes everything from wheel
bearing grease to brake fluid, suspension fluid, and the oil on the air filter.
Updated Styling: The 2025 CX65 comes adorned with all new graphics and updated styling
cues.
