$250.00 | | Purchased At: | REI | | Strengths: | Durable, lightweight (for a kids bike), decent compo group, not a Huffy/Next/Mongoose | | Weaknesses: | Stickers, made in China | | Similar Products Used: | Huffy 20" | | Bike Setup: | Standard OEM, 40mm fork, Shimano Revo twist-shifters, alloy wheels and frame | | Bottom Line: | As far as a mid-range kid's bike, this one is pretty good!! My kids and I hated the stickers (skulls) so we ripped them off, now this bike (matte black) matches my Sette Reken frame. They've put these bikes through it all, tuned it up twice and monthly maintenance and they are pretty smooth. If you have a kid and you love him/her, but don't want to spend $700+ on a Gary Fisher, this one fits the bill. Besides they'll only get to ride them for a few years before they grow out of them. My 8 year old (4'9") rides the 24 and my 6 year old (4'4") rides the 20. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$250.00 | | Purchased At: | REI | | Strengths: | Very durable. We've had no problem after 6 months and she is riding on most single track trails in Austin, TX | | Weaknesses: | Grip shift is a little tough to use. Would have prefered the trigger shifter. | | Similar Products Used: | Tested Specialized and Haro 24's | | Bike Setup: | 24" with SRAM setup | | Bottom Line: | This bike was for my 10 yr old daughter. She opted for the boy version 'cause she liked the cool colors and skulls. Guess its a girl thing. :) Overall this was the best bike for the price and we have had zero issues. Setup's in other bikes were not as good and cost much more. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
