Kids mountain bikes

Do you want to master those challenging trails and rapid descents like an adult? Canyon’s mountain bikes for kids offer the same unbeatable performance as our bigger bikes but are designed for lighter, smaller riders. Unlock your full potential and have fun from an early age: Our hardtail and full-suspension kids MTBs are perfect for adrenaline-seeking children and teens.

Adult and youth mountain bikes – similarities and differences

In terms of ride properties, there are no differences between our best kids and adult mountain bikes. All components are built to the same unwavering quality, giving the next generation of cyclists all the riding pleasure and comfort, as well as safety, they should expect.

So, what are the key differences and what size of mountain bike is suitable for a youth rider? Our kids MTBs feature 27.5-inch wheels for all-round control and performance and are suitable for a body-height up to 166cm (depending on the model). Frame size and weight, suspension forks and the saddle have all also been optimized for lower-weight riders.

The suspension fork offers up to 130mm of travel – with adjustable compression and rebound. This means the suspension can be adapted to the weight of young riders, giving them the control they need to hit the trails with confidence.

With all the features that make our full-sized MTBs so successful, purposefully redesigned for smaller riders, our kids mountain bikes lay the foundation for a lifelong love of adventure.
