Kids Bike Sizing Chart
Sizing a bike for your child is tricky. Kids grow fast! Getting them on a properly sized bike will help grow confidence and set them up for years of success riding bikes. Happy kids will result in happy parents! We’ve put together a “rough” size chart to help you get started. We’re not guaranteeing this will be 100% accurate, but based on our experience, this at least provides a place to start:
*There are many factors affecting sizing. This is a only guide, but may not be accurate for every kid.
Just received the 24 X2 today after 3 days wait!
Assembled the bike with my 8 yr old son who is going to be riding it. This is to upgrade his Trek Roscoe 24″ due to the need for suspension on more aggressive trail here in Victoria. The bike assembly was smooth without any hiccups. Had to recalibrate the brake but it was very easy.
The air suspension is very good and responsive. It is more suited for my some what light weight son comparing to a coil suspension. The tires are very grippy with decent traction which is perfect for what he is riding. I have compared with other bikes such as Kona Honzo, Rocky Mountain Growler/Vertex, Norco…etc and this X2 has everything I need for my son to be confident on the trails. The gear ratio on this bike is also amazing which makes climbing an easy job for those skinny legs!
Overall I would recommend this bike to any parent who doesn’t want to spend the premium price ($1500+) but wants a bike that’s more than capable reaping through blue/black diamond trails in the woods!
Key features I was looking for:
– air suspension
– hydraulic drake
– grippy tires
– gear ratio
– weight
– derailleur clutch ( so your chain doesn’t slap around)
– price tag
