$85.00 | | Purchased At: | Dream Bikes | | Strengths: | Well Built. Good components. Nice looking product. | | Weaknesses: | A little heavy but all kids bikes are | | Bike Setup: | Stock | | Bottom Line: | Great bike, was able to get a real good deal on a demo for under $100. Daughter loves it and since it's a Trek I know I'll be able to get what I paid for out of it when she out grows it. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$225.00 | | Strengths: | solid components for a kid's bike, trek quality | | Weaknesses: | somewhat heavy, but my 6 y-old can handle/lift it | | Similar Products Used: | specialized hotrock | | Bike Setup: | stock | | Bottom Line: | this bike has taken my son's riding to the next level. the gears have allowed him to climb hills he never could before. i was concerned the shifter and brakes may be hard to handle, but to my son they were a welcome challenge. the bike is a little heavy (for a barely 6 y-old) but, overall i am as happy with the bike as my son is - "dad, i love to ride my new bike." | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$220.00 | | Purchased At: | Rockys Cyclery | | Strengths: | Size, Adjustable, Components | | Weaknesses: | Twist grip shifters | | Bike Setup: | Stock | | Bottom Line: | I bought this bike for my 6 year old son and he loves it. He is always wanting to go riding. It is amazing what gears will do for these little guys on hills and rough terrain. I have been looking for Mtn bikes for my 5 year old twin boys since he got his, and I think the Trek is best that I have seen. I have looked at almost all the different brands. The Giant MTX 125 is really nice too but I like the looks of the Trek better. The Giant looks like a BMX bike. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$250.00 | | Purchased At: | Bike America | | Strengths: | Great components (except for front fork) and a great ride (again, except for the front fork). Easy to use gears for my 6 yr old as he learns the basics of riding with gears vs. BMX style bikes. | | Weaknesses: | I am VERY disappointed in the front fork. My son is not a rider who has "substantial hits" and yet the fork bottoms out a lot going over speed bumps, off curbs, etc. Trek has given my bike shop a replacement fork and the same problem continues from day one. This appears to be a defect to me and feel Trek should provide a better solution. | | Bottom Line: | Overall, my son loves this bike, except for the fork. I would rate this bike the highest possible rating if it wasn't for the front fork. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
