Swap. Lock. Ride. Meet the next generation of Chunky Monkey.
The Chunky Monkey Apex X 17" LED Whip takes Gorilla Whips' oversized, ultra-bright Chunky Monkey design and combines it with our new interchangeable X Mount system—giving you the freedom to change your setup in seconds without changing mounts or dealing with power cables.
The biggest upgrade is the new X Mount cable-free connection. Simply connect your Apex X whip to the X Mount and you're ready to light up. No whip power cable to plug in or unplug. The electrical connection is integrated directly into the mount for a clean, fast connection every time.
But the X Mount does more than make installation easier. It's the foundation of our new Swap & Ride™ system.
Want the massive look and brightness of your Chunky Monkey Apex X at night? Lock it in and ride. Want a slimmer LED whip? Swap to an Elite Pro X. Heading out during the day and want to run a traditional flag whip? Swap to the Day Whip X fiberglass whip with flag.
One X Mount. Multiple whip styles. Swap & Ride™.
At 17 inches tall with a massive 2-inch diameter, the Chunky Monkey Apex X delivers the unmistakable oversized appearance the Chunky Monkey line is known for. Its heavy-duty resin epoxy construction, reinforced base, signature illuminated top cap, and extremely high LED density deliver incredible brightness in a compact package built for serious off-road use.
Choose from unlimited solid colors and hundreds of vibrant chasing patterns to completely transform your machine after dark. Whether you're running a UTV, RZR, Can-Am, ATV, Sand Rail, Jeep, Dune Buggy, boat, or industrial vehicle, the Apex X is designed to stand out.

The X Mount Advantage
The Interchangeable X Mount changes the way you run your whips.
Instead of dedicating a different mount and wiring connection to every whip style, the X Series lets you use the same mount with compatible Gorilla Whips X Series products.
Chunky Monkey Apex X → Oversized LED whip
Elite Pro X → Slim LED whip
Day Whip X → Fiberglass day whip with flag
Swap your setup for the trail, dunes, street or time of day.
Swap & Ride™. Same X Mount. Different Ride.
