Both my kids ride a rocky mountain reaper. Great geometry. Double suspension are quite expensive but hold value if they are well maintain.

Missed the mark leaving Woom’s line up off of this list. I bought my kid a Trek 20” Roscoe, which was too heavy for her. Within a month I bought a Woom Off Air 4, several pounds lighter and quality kid size components (ex. trek has adult cable brakes). So not only did we pick up a fork, we lost weight. Yes, it cost more, but is a great bargain compared to the majority of bikes on your list.

A good bike out there that no one really knows about is the BMC twostroke 20. You can find it on sale for $499. It comes with the SDG jr pro kit, tektro hydraulic brakes, kenda tires, x4 drivetrain. From what I have found online is that it is just over 20lbs not the best weight but lighter than many out there. It comes with a fun sticker kit for the kids too. I ordered one because it’s comparable to others bikes at almost double the price.

Update unofficially using a house scale the bike weighed 18.5lbs with pedals and an online weight I just found said 18.9

"These 3 bikes start at one thousand...." You're out of your mind if you think a 6 year old is going to get a $1000+ bike.

Actually the ones the people in our area look at are between 2 and 4 thousand. Although one is on sale for 1700$ right now. Woot For perspective. My daughter was riding the local full track at 3. Never had training wheels. She is 7 now. She clears the table tops at the dirt jump track. And I take her up to mount washington for downhill. And she isn't even on the extreme side. Some of the kids around here send it. Bikes are tools for the job. Good tools cost money. That's life.

@donkeyfly43 it’s totally ok if you wanna buy your kids a Walmart bike for $100 just to cruise the block. Some of us share our hobbies with our kids to build memories with them. Serious trails require serious bikes.

The best kids bikes are from VPACE both hardtail and fullsuspension. Also Propain is missing, the Yuma is way better compared with Commencal, Scott or the Transition.

@@TheCureThatKillz i got my kid a 2024 rocky mountain reaper 26 and changed the wheels to 24 as he's still short for the 26. Components are much better than the Marin. Though there's a price difference, upgrading the Marin's components will likely cost you close to repear's price and it's difficult to find stores that sell them. One more reason why I chose the reaper over the rift zone is the resell value. 2018s still sell high here. So if my 2 kids use the reaper for 5 years then I'd still get a good amount of money from it maybe to purchase a newer bike by then.
