Cut to the chase.
Forget everything you think you know about what a 20" can do. Every aspect of this Hellion is designed in the pursuit of performance. From there, anything is possible.
At its core, is a chassis intent on handling the hardest and the biggest, by being robust but lightweight, stable but nimble. It's long, low and slack but short stayed. It has triple butted tubes and a CNC'd chainstay yoke. It's internally routed and dropper ready. It has lightweight long travel forks, air sprung naturally, and through axles front and rear.
And it rolls on the best wheel set you could hope to find on a kids bike, driven by the best drive train, controlled by the best finishing kit and held in check by the very best brakes.
It reads like a Christmas wish list: straight pull CNC'd hubs, tubeless compatible double walled rims, folding tyres (upto 2.6"), four bearing cassette, low Q factor direct mount cranks, narrow wide chainring, 11-36T cassette, external cup bottom bracket, custom 35mm stem, butted riser 560mm riser bar, lock-on grips and the sweetest hydraulic brakes to bring everything nicely to a conclusion.

Great Bike.
The bike is great. We upgraded from a seeker 16 and our little one could immediate get going with the bike and we were riding trails just one day after the bike arrived.
Only downside is the price which however seems justified for what you get.
Also the assembly instructions didn’t quite match with what had to be done. For instance I had to mount and adjust the front disc brake calliper which wasn’t mentioned in the instructions at all. Not a problem if you are used to Mountainbikes which most buyers of this bike will be. But still a little oversight in the instructions

Great little bike
All told, this is a seriously nice bike for such a young rider. Our little guy was on a Seeker 16 for a couple years, and he'd both grown enough and progressed enough that bigger wheels were warranted. We've currently got it converted to a singlespeed so he can get used to the new bike before we add shifting into the mix. The sliding dropouts made the conversion super easy, and were ultimately the main reason we stuck with Early Rider instead of giving more consideration to other options. Had there been an option to add a reasonably priced, suspension-corrected aluminum fork in addition to the suspension fork, I'd have probably jumped on that as well since this bike, while crazy light for a kids bike, represents a pretty substantial increase in weight from the Seeker 16. The RST fork works well, my kindergartner is heavy enough to actually have it work like a suspension fork and not a pogo stick or a heavy rigid fork (which, honestly, I wasn't entirely expecting it to achieve and have been pleasantly surprised by), but he would likely benefit more from having a lighter bike to pick up and haul uphill than he will from having the travel, at least for now.
The tires included with the bike are not tubeless-ready, but they were hooked into the rim well enough that I felt safe in converting the wheels to tubeless and hoping they'd seal. A couple passes of tubeless tape (stock config has old-school rubber rim strips), a couple valves, and a couple ounces of sealant later and…
