ByK E-450 Geared Kids Bike

 

For this age range, some bikes now come with gears. Although a single speed bike is still great for kids, gears will allow them to cover more terrain, ride up bigger hills and simply go further.

 

Byk introduced the 3 speed hubs on the E-450 range for kids 5-8 years but it is in this older age group where they introduce the world class SRAM x8 cassette gears on both the E-450x8, and the new, revolutionary kids mountain bike - the 450MTB.

 

Byk have customised each tube to reduce weight and improve handling. Another crucial ingredient to the clever design is the improved control and bump dampening ability of the CRM forks - giving a dramatic advantage in handling and comfort. For the 450MTB, Byk have designed their off-road compatible rigid forks to be compliant and absorbing, yet offer handling characteristics that cater for enthusiastic riders. Some bikes in this age range come with suspension forks but they add a lot of extra weight with very little efficiency, making them harder and therefore less fun to ride.
