Serious trail-worthy bikes have suspension and disc brakes. So, for your keen young ripper, it makes sense that their bike has these features too. The Acid 260 Disc's hydraulic Tektro disc brakes add all-weather stopping power and control, while the Suntour suspension fork has 80mm of trail-smoothing travel. And 24 wide-ranging Shimano gears put the ideal ratio for any trail literally at your child's fingertips. It's everything they need, and nothing that they don't.
Frame description
The Acid 260 Disc's mechanically formed, double-butted, heat-treated 6061 aluminium tubes are the same as the ones we use for our adult range. The addition of disc mounts means your child has the added safety of powerful all-weather disc brakes. Combined with our Agile Ride Geometry, it makes for a frame that'll allow your child's skills to develop as their confidence grows. And there's a replaceable gear hanger too, so that a crash needn't be the end of the world.
Find your size!
Enter your height and inseam below and click on 'Calculate my frame size' to see which size you need. You measure your inseam as follows:
1. Stand barefoot with your heels against the wall. Place your feet about 6 inches apart.
2. Grab a book and place it between your legs, with the short side of the book against the wall. Press the book up against your crotch, mimicking the idea of a bicycle saddle.
3. Measure the length from the top of the book to the floor, the distance you measure is your inseam.
