Orbea MX 24 XC (2023)

Orbea MX 24 XC - 24 inch fun tourer with suspension fork

If children are to develop a love of cycling, then the basic requirement is a suitable bike. And one that is not too heavy in relation to the body weight - as unfortunately (too) many children's bikes on the market. In addition, the bike should be robust and uncomplicated to operate. Because if it remains roadworthy for a long time, a younger sibling can take it over later and the purchase price is amortized. We are pleased to have found Orbea, a manufacturer that is intensively involved in this topic and builds high-quality and ergonomically adapted bikes for children and young people.

MX Junior 24 - for kids from 6 to 9 years old

The MX Junior 24 series generally fits kids aged 6 to 9 years. The basis is a high-quality aluminum frame with all the features that also has an adult bike. Starting with the quickly adjustable seatpost to the bottle cage. Cockpit, saddle and pedals are anatomically adapted. The XC version comes as the only model with a Suntour XCT-JR suspension fork with 50 mm travel. It works with a steel spring, which is specially adapted to the low body weight of children. The 7-speed gears come from the Shimano Altus group. Mounted are uncomplicated V-brakes and wide off-road tires that provide driving safety and damping. All components are made of aluminum, making them as light as possible. And the splash guard on the fork gives the MX 24 XC a casual motocross look.
