Kid's first mtb sizing?

[iman29]

Thanks for all the advice. He's 100% a 24" rider. Popped into a local spot to size him up, with the bike shortage and fear of not having a bday gift and because he was stoked on it, we grabbed a cannondale trail 24. He had no problem getting used to the bigger tires. Took a quick ride at our local gravel path (Henry Hudson trail. Also got a first ride with my 3yo on the kids ride shotgun. She loved it.

So much awesome there. That’s the perfect way to start them off. Keep it simple and fun even if it’s boring for you it’s a big challenge to say like “hey we did xx miles last time let’s try xx”.

I made mistakes by trying to make my boys do too much at once when they were younger and I think that’s why none of them are really into it at all now that they are much older. Like 2 of them have drivers licenses now and basically brand new bikes in my basement. The 3rd one uses his to ride back and forth to the basketball court. Oh well.

Happy trails!!
