Right on time! My 9yo daughter just started riding beginner trails with me on her Mongoose. Won't be long till I'm shopping for a proper trail bike for her. Just what excellent timing!
I just bought the 24” Commencal Clash for my 6 and 8 year olds for bike park duty and they’re in love with them! Full on enduro kids bike... so much better than my Huffy BMX bike when I was their age
I had a lightweight 26” wheels Whyte 405 with a 1x drivetrain and airfork when I was 11. I adored that bike so much and now in 14 and I just sold it and now I’m buying a 27.5 wheel bike
That's exactly what's happened with my daughter. She's been very good with the balance bike and then switched to a regular bike with stabilizers. Sure, speed went up, but she's gotten lazy and would happily lean hard on one side to turn these cranks faster...
Great information. Next please do a video on Kids kit. Helmets (trail and full face), pedals, gloves etc. For example, those cheap plastic stock pedals that come on bike do not work on trail, so proper pedals are a must. Thank you! -Sam
I just ordered a Pello Reyes for my 8 year old. We’re lucky to have 3 boys so the cost is defrayed over multiple users. I ordered the optional air fork and wider tires, but they ship it with the rigid and the regular tires so it’s pretty easy to switch between a 21lbs (9.5kg) rigid, and a 24lbs (11kg) hardtail.
if you want to ride with them and have some fun, the weight is the most important. My 7 years old son can make 25 km long mtb rides (700 meters elevation)on 9kg 24 size bike. No need for suspension and discbrakes.
I'm 12 so now I can get a size small 💪opens up a lot of options for me I'm saving up for a vitus mythique vr I already sold my trek marlin 5 and stomp 125cc now I need to save up 250 so I can ride again. Luckily me dads bike (cube aim competition line) is a size small so currently I'm riding it.
La mejor bicicleta para niños en mi opinión ,fabricada en Andorra hemos comprado una Commencal Ramones 16 para mi hijo de 4 años y es una maravilla de bici , buenos frenos y buena calidad , 100% recomendable ,los preciós son elevados pero vale la pena
One issue we had when buying a bike for my son was that most in our price range and in his size had grip shift but his wrists weren't strong enough. We had to break our budget to get "normal" paddle shifters. But at the end of the day, another person on a bike is a good thing so sound investment!
Had a commencal meta about 8 years ago-ish(Stolen 6 years ago).Had tried to get my,then, 5 year old a commencal but could only source them from Europe.Glad to see they're hopefully getting more easily available in UK.
These all seem still fairly heavy. The woom off 4 is 16 pounds for a 20 inch bike. I think weight is more important than suspension forks at this point so that is probably the way I am going for my 6 year old. When she is a little older and up to 24 inch wheels I will get one of these full suspensions. looks like they have great components for kids
My kids love their rothan and cnoc. We took the pedals off the cnoc for a while but when the older one asked to have them out back on he was riding straight away. When it comes to progressing from a balance bike to a pedal bike the kids know when they are ready and it just happens.
My Kid learned on balance bike, and with 2,5 years old is now on pedal bike! Without hekping wheels. My trouble is that his starter bike is quite heavy... But he is still so small which maks it very hard to find options that are not absurdly expensive. Thanks for this video. I will check out commençal site
I use to have a bike with extra training wheels to get my balance I enjoy riding it until I was six and then i told mum I have to take it off for a event at school, because it’s embarrassing with training wheels on , so my mum spent time with me to ride a bike I didn’t fall off it while I was learning to ride it on the second attempt I got it straight away it was fun.
That 27.5 clash has more travel than my new XL frame trail bike god damn (trek fuel EX 140F/130R). That aside those are some serious bikes designed for kids and I support getting more people into the sport.
My boy is getting to be quite good on his Cruzee balance bike, and Commencal seem to be the only brand in the Australian market that actually do proper kid's bikes. My wife will not appreciate the $500 pricetag, but young sir may end up with a Ramones 14 at some point in the future...
you know what is interesting? i went from a single speed puky bike to some blue off brand one with 3 hub gears to some white focus bike with a 7speed hub to a trek 3500 disc with 3x7 to a haibike sduro hardnine emtb with 1x10. never had a regular non e adult bike. just stopped riding for a few years and then got the old emtb from my dad who got a new sduro for cheap like 300€. neither did i have a 3x adult bike.
Balance bikes are the best rhing after sliced bread. My kids used balance bikes and when they started pedeling at age 3-4 it only took 10-15 minutes before they handled it perfectly.
My brother used to be on a balance bike. And then one Day he just hopped on My cousins bike without training wheel and then he has never used the balance bike since
@@GTChucker86 I actually have a 26 inch hard tail bike right now and It fits really well for me. When I want to upgrade to a full suspension it will be harder for me to find
This was super informative. I hope parents keep it in mind as the Christmas season rolls around when they are considering getting their kids on bikes. Well done Neal. Oh, and your little guy is rocking that push bike!
Great! :D Th for all the research! :D I also went for the Commençal Ramones 14'' as I couldn't get the Prevelo Bikes here in Europe. I don't regret it at all and as my nephew LOVES his new bike, I'm all happy to spend my time with him teaching how to balance and pedal :)
Haha I ride trails on my mongoose Walmart bike and I really want I good bike and these kids have a lifetime supply of amazing bikes.My dream is to get a good hardtack and go hard without fear of breaking
Me as a kid i think you should do another video because most kids dont have 3600 dollars laying around for a commencal or if they do they have a budget made by their parents
Very nice bikes, some real quality components on these, but those SRAM 'grip shift' shifters, genuinely took me by surprise. They are the cheapest nastiest shifters I have ever seen, the slot for changing cables on them looks like a piece of the body of the shifter broken off. Retail for one of these is about £8, on a bike at this price I don't see why these where chosen for the spec list. The action on these shifters are also awful and getting into lower gears for little hands is a real struggle, sometimes even for adults lol. The absolute best in this price category is the Shimano revoshift (retail around £10), I manage quite a big chain bike shop, we often end up changing out shifters for tiny hands. Any way just dropping my thoughts! Great video as always, really cool to see these mini shredders lined up and get a run down. Can't wait until my daughters old enough to be my MTB buddy!
Back in my mum day they didn’t have kids bike they had to ride adult bikes at it looks hard to use when you are about six and your tire around 12 inches I think in circle dimensions.
Probably the most overlooked question is “what do you ride?” Buy a bike with the correct geo and travel for that or if you ride diverse stuff then more than 1 bike. Ignore anyone that tells you ‘kids can’t do ...” then says “so they don’t need”. Stick them on a decent bike forget to tell them kids can’t and they will outdo 90% of adults very quickly. (I’ve truly lost count of the number of times I’ve heard ... he/she can’t climb that or he/she can’t descend that only for them to trash the adult saying it. ) #kidsmtb etc and you quickly see they can. Get ‘fall back panic response ’ dialled in or out from day 1... for example 1 finger braking. Don’t think it will be easy to address later, it won’t because when you REALLY need it it’s autonomous... and when they really need as strong a grip as possible they will revert to 2 finger... just ditch any levers/brakes they can’t use 1 finger from day 1. XT are good due to short levers + bite point adjust, SLX also work but you need to replace the security screw to adjust bite point. (Better to replace or bleeding is a right pain) You might also want to consider the mess a 5yr old can make bleeding and if you want them playing with DOT fluid. Whilst on that they aren’t going to benefit from 130mm grips, starting off you can get 90mm... this also helps brake placement... if you go barmount you can also switch the shifter outside the brakes. Almost any hydraulic has the stopping power for a kids weight , even now mine is 10 and riding an adult frame he’s only got 180/160 rotors and that’s only because his forks are native 180mm. Next panic response ... they come to a scary steep descent there are 2 responses, feet off pedals or on... its not rocket science to guess which one balance bikes condition. If they are pedalling get an appropriate crank length. Although 20’s are generally OK 24ers rarely have appropriate length cranks. Most manufacturers accountants seem to think 155 is fine as their procurement dept tells them they can buy from one of their main distributors. Whilst on cranks ... pedals and shoes... since you can’t buy clipless shoes until adult sizes proper pins and shoes are essential if you want to avoid injury from feet slipping. Mine still can’t get clipless shoes so he’s yet to have the option... it’s also worth considering the change in Q factor from pedals.
Please, look at the OFF Models from woombikes! They really got the geometry right for little rippers. It looks like the commercial bikes didn't really fit the young riders in the video.
Commencal is such a cool brand! And thats the info I was looking for 10:53, that if I ever buy a balance bike for my future kid I will be able to use it too haha
How about a video of when its time to change a kid from a hard tail to a full suspension bike? My five year old has been riding a spawn Yama Jama for 2 years at the ski hills in BC. This year he's been riding technical blue trails and you can really see he needs a full suspension bike because of sore hands and the rear tire bouncing all over the place. I am a little concerned with BB heights on the 20" full suspension bikes on technical trails and have heard mixed reviews. Any experience?
I don't like kids much, don't mind if others have them. But damn, wish we had such awesome bikes 30 years ago! I agree with Nail, we had BMX bikes(those who's parents had more money, otherwise they had only Pony bikes - google them, they still malke them, but they are way more expensive as they used to be),
balance bikes,.. stabilizers,.. when i had to learn to ride a bike, we went to the schoolyard.. i rode the bike my parents stabilized it till they thought i had the balance and then let go without telling me... after 1-2 crashes later and the problem was solved... after that i never got why nowadays you have to learn on balance bikes or with stabiliuers...
0:35 those struggles are so real even today still cant afford a known brand of fullsus or even hardtail mtb still enjoy what i can afford a mtb with unknown brand probably came from china or wherever in the far east.
I don't actually think that kids should get full suspensions because as they're just learning to ride they'll just become dependent on the rear shock instead of getting better at technique
My 10yr old daughter is 5’2 & I’m racking my brain on wether to get a YOUTH GT Stomper Pro 26 or Women’s GT Aggressor (15 XS ). Any recommendations? Thanks
What happened with the 26" size wheels? This size should be perfect between 24 and 27,5... I got my 8 years old son a Vitus Nucleus 26 for just 500Euro, 12,5KG, 9 speed Shimano Altus and 100mm AIR fork... a great bike for a very good price! The most important aspect for me is weight... a kids bike should not be as or more heavy them an adult bike. A kid of 26kg having to ride a bike of almost 13kg is like a 60kg adult riding a 30kg bike. Imagine that!
We love it! It's really going to help progress the future of mountain biking. Some kids are riding at such a high standard from an early age now thanks to balance bikes and decent bikes available in all sizes.🤘👊 It's crazy to think of all the people that may have been put off mountain biking or even bikes in general simply because of the terrible bikes they rode when they were younger!
@@gmbn Absolutely! 20 years ago only "mountain bike" for kids was some cheap bmx look-a-like (or at least when I got my first bike). Didn't though stop from shredding in the forest as kid.

Neil your little boy look just like you but tiny
Right fit and light weight.

Man, I wish we had bike's like this in 70s.
My friend had the Yamaha 20" bike back then. Coolest bike 1973
Exactly what you guys said .
I totally approve of the lil kid giving a thumbs up at the end. Made me laugh. Good video.
He was gorgeous. Awesome little shredders, all of them
Imagine the amount of sticks they would have had to find to stand up all those bikes

I had a lightweight 26” wheels Whyte 405 with a 1x drivetrain and airfork when I was 11. I adored that bike so much and now in 14 and I just sold it and now I’m buying a 27.5 wheel bike
Another issue with stabilisers is that some kids tend to lean to one side on the stabilisers which makes moving from stabilisers to two wheels harder
That's exactly what's happened with my daughter.
She's been very good with the balance bike and then switched to a regular bike with stabilizers. Sure, speed went up, but she's gotten lazy and would happily lean hard on one side to turn these cranks faster...
Trainning wheels are for lazy parents the dont teach anything good they teach the opisite of good tecnic .

This kids have higher components than me HAHAHAA

Probably the most overlooked question is “what do you ride?”

dam those kids are talented they will shred so hard when their older.👍
@@Mububban23 same here🤣
Got a chain guard but not disc brake guard ?
You son looks so confused and its soo cute
C’mon the rei co op drt 24 is so good my son loves it
What happened with the 26" size wheels? This size should be perfect between 24 and 27,5... I got my 8 years old son a Vitus Nucleus 26 for just 500Euro, 12,5KG, 9 speed Shimano Altus and 100mm AIR fork... a great bike for a very good price! The most important aspect for me is weight... a kids bike should not be as or more heavy them an adult bike. A kid of 26kg having to ride a bike of almost 13kg is like a 60kg adult riding a 30kg bike. Imagine that!
Missing the classic rear derailleur cage... kids.just chuck bikes down...non-drive side down only rule takes a while to become sevond nature
It's crazy (in a good way) what kind bikes are available for kids nowadays.
We love it! It's really going to help progress the future of mountain biking. Some kids are riding at such a high standard from an early age now thanks to balance bikes and decent bikes available in all sizes.🤘👊 It's crazy to think of all the people that may have been put off mountain biking or even bikes in general simply because of the terrible bikes they rode when they were younger!
@@gmbn Absolutely! 20 years ago only "mountain bike" for kids was some cheap bmx look-a-like (or at least when I got my first bike). Didn't though stop from shredding in the forest as kid.
Good video, but I cant believe you missed out Meekboyz bikes! smh.
What parts of the bike you based the measurements?
I'm a small man standing at 5'1". What size of Mountain bike fit for me?
wow that was outstanding!!
0:13 wow a 20 inch full suspension bike!? Nifty
Edit: did you install the fork thing backwards?
It's a Manatou they have a reverse arch for stiffness

They're also good at not getting dirt and mud trapped in them
