Kids about 7 to 10+ years old and 130 to 160 cm tall who want to ride gravel paths, dirt tracks and easy trails as well as the street.
The Neo Disc+ 24 7s is built for kids who want to explore. The GEN 3 disc-specific alloy frame has off-road inspired geometry but keeps a low standover height, so young riders feel confident when the trail gets bumpy.
Up front, a 60 mm suspension fork with lockout soaks up roots and ruts, then locks firm for climbs and pavement. JAK-5 mechanical disc brakes with 160 mm rotors give strong, consistent stopping in any weather, with short-reach levers sized for small hands.
Shimano 7-speed gearing and wider 24 x 2.1 inch knobby tyres make gravel paths and easy trails fun rather than hard work. The Chrome Purple finish is paired with a matte black bar, levers and spokes, and a kickstand is included.

Sizing

Great for
Maybe not for
Suits riders around 130 to 160 cm, typically 7 to 10+ years. Check your child can stand over the bike with both feet down and reach the brake levers comfortably. We are happy to check the fit in store.
Use the lockout
Show your child how to flick the fork lockout on for road riding and climbs, then off again when the trail gets rough. And keep an eye on the brake pads, since mechanical discs need a small cable adjustment as they wear.
