Children's Bikes
Children's bikes are sold in a lot of places, but the best ones come from bike shops.
For your child, that means their bike will be easier to pedal and easier to operate; for you,
"no assembly required" and fewer visits to the bike shop for repairs.
These are the kind of bikes that you can pass down from child to child. They last for years. Then, when you're finally done with them, you can sell, donate, or trade them in to us for the next size up. Plus, with bike shop bikes, besides the expert assembly, you get free break-in adjustments for six months. Now that's a deal that's hard to beat.
Here's what we carry:
NOTE: With the wide variety of colors available in children's bikes, what we have on hand varies. If we don't have the exact one you want in stock, we can usually get it in a few days.
Raleigh Talus 2.0
(For ten & eleven year olds)
$325
The Talus is our offering for that little guy (or girl) that's too big for a childrens bike, but not quite big enough for a full size adult bike. With a 12" frame, it's basiclly an extra small adult bike. We carry the Talus in only the 12" frame size, but we can order any size you'd like. It's a good value, and it's a bike you can pass around the family as the kids grow in and out of it.

24" Kids Bikes
(For eight & nine year olds)
Raleigh Mountain Scout
$325
The Mountain Scout is our flagship of 24" bikes. The light weight aluminum frame with its low stand-over height, lets kids get into this size earlier, and gives them a little more growing room. This year Raleigh trimmed the weight even more by using a ridgid fork and by putting a little narrower, more street oriented tire. The Mountain Scout is the lightest 24" bike we've ever had. When you're a little guy, that's really important. Come pick one up and see.

Raleigh Ivy
