Orbea Laufey 20 H30 (2023)

Orbea Laufey 20 H30 - 20-inch trail bike for a successful start to life as a biker.

One thing is certain: if parents enjoy mountain biking and model the sport to their children, it's only a matter of time before the spark ignites with the offspring. So far so good! But in order for the kids to enjoy cycling right from the start, it is important that the bike fits their body proportions. And secondly, that it is not too heavy in relation to their body weight - like (too) many children's bikes on the market. We are glad to have found Orbea, a manufacturer who is intensively concerned with this topic and builds high-quality and ergonomically adapted mountain bikes for children and young people.

Laufey Junior series - fun machines for kids aged four and up

With a wheel size of 20 inches, the Laufey 20 models are generally suitable for children from 4 to 7 years. The basis is a high-quality aluminium frame with integrated cable guide. Frills like a suspension fork are deliberately and rightly omitted in this price range. This saves weight and is quite simply carefree. In the H30 version, the Laufey 20 comes with reliable Shimano parts such as 9-speed Altus gears and smooth hydraulic disc brakes with child-friendly levers. When the going gets rough, a standard guide keeps the chain in check on the crank. The crank, rims and handlebars/stem are made of lightweight aluminium. And the splash guard on the fork definitely looks mega cool.
