Kid Powered Fun
Our Kids series consists of two styles of bikes. Mountain bikes for younger cyclists and 16” wheel bikes for first time riders. All four utilize the custom EDGE aluminum tubing found in our high end adult bikes. The result is a collection of unusually lightweight kids bikes which makes riding much easier and more enjoyable for you and them.

Strengths: rugged
light
Weaknesses: in my mind expensive for a kids' bike
Bottom Line:
I got this for my 7 year old. It was this or the Diamondback Cobra. The Marin is WAY lighter than the Dback, the components are better, although the cost is a bit more I feel it is worth it. It seems like kids bikes tend to be on the heavy side but not this one. I guess the most important thing is that my son likes it.
