Best Decathlon Cycles for Kids

Buying a cycle for kids is an amazing thing to start them onto a ride of independence and responsibility. Decathlon is undoubtedly the leader in this space for cycles for kids of all age groups. Decathlon has BTWIN, BTWIN Rock Rider, and Lifelong as the three large brands catering to various needs such as mountain biking, road biking, and hybrid biking consumer needs. In this post, we shall look at the Rock Rider range of cycles for kids.

Rock Rider – The Mountain Biking Range

Rock Rider is their mountain biking range built with the purpose to ride on off-road trails. It is absolute fun to ride them for recreation on mixed trails. Rock Rider is the flagship brand for MTB range of Decathlon, and buying this brand has several benefits such as lifetime warranty on the frame, buy back using their Second Life Workshop, Excellent Cycling Comfort, Robustness, and more.

For 6-10 Years:

The ST100 is an excellent RockRider choice for small kids aged 6-10 years. The frame is absolute rock solid and the seat height can be adjusted for the growth of the child and can be mostly used up to even 10 years of age for the child.

As the child grows, the cycle can be given to the Decathlon Second Life workshop to get a Decathlon credit, which is an excellent way to get value for your old cycle and use the credit to buy a new cycle.

For 9-13 Years:

The ST20 is an excellent choice for slightly older kids who are maturing to real cycling in the neighbourhood roads and slight distances. The bike is a solid steel frame designed to cushion against most bad conditions in off-road and urban road conditions.

Again, the frame can be provided back to Decathlon Second Life to get credit to purchase other cycles and accessories.

Moving further to this range, the child can decide whether they want an offroad trail bike or if they want to continue on a city bike. This choice will decide the next range of cycles to shift onto for children. ST30 is the first offroad trail bike with the gear range. And, EXPLOR40 is recommended for explorers who want to venture out more and also for slightly taller kids with serious cycling interests as a hobby venture-outs.

A non-gear alternative for 10-15 year olds is the ST50. ST50 is a robust cycle for kids who are in the age group of 10-15 and who don’t want to take the gear styled MTB bikes. All these cycles come with rigid steel forks which are excellent at absorbing shocks for long durations under all conditions. Another advantage of ST50 is it comes with aluminium wheels which are rust-free and lightweight.

I hope this post helped provide a brief overview of the excellent range of decathlon cycles for kids.
