Bike Setup:

Bottom Line:
This acutually the Precaliber SS. What a great bike for kid's. Only 19 pounds. And all they have to concentrate on is riding, no shifting. My son is 7yrs old, 54" and about 54 pounds. He has always had a little issue with the typical kid's bikes(jamis laser) due to their weight, which took me some time to figure out. He now blasts up pretty decent hills and ove to keep up with dad. I would recommend this to anyone. Only bad thing was a paint flaw and the shop gave me a credit. no harm, no foul.

Bottom Line:
I bought this bike for my 5 yr old son as he was having trouble keeping up on his 16" bike.
We looked at Diamondback, Specialized etc.
This was the lightest, 23.5 lbs, and best equipped bike for the money.
I took him out trail riding this weekend and he loved it.
He was able to get up some hills that he was not able to get up before.
He also likes it because he can keep up and with me and the other older kids in the neighborhood.
