This one of the bikes I'm considering for my son. Do you know its approximate weight?
Thanks!

MBD! Orbea Junior Laufey 27 H10 - possibly best value kids hardtail
It was a 6 month wait but definitely worth it, especially for my 11 old where 6 months feels like an eternity!
Honestly the Orbea Junior Laufey 27 H10 is one of the best spec junior hardtails out there . Marzocchi Z2 fork, quality schwalbe rubber, dropper, a decent drive train (XT derailleur, Deore shifter + some other parts) and modern geometry. I noticed they are only available in Europe, Australia and a few other places but not the USA. $2200 AUD (so about $1600 USD)
It came with some average shimano 10s break levers so I swapped them out for a set of Deore M6100. Also it came with a massive 70mm stem which made the bike way to long, so I swapped it out for a 45mm stem from the parts box.
I also swapped out the XT derailleur for a new 12 speed Deore as I need it more than he does!
Happy days
