The GT Stomper Ace 26 is a great way to get your kids out on the trail. With an 8-speed drivetrain using Shimano’s Altus thumbshifter, a single 30 tooth chainset keeping things simple, and an 11-34 cassette, the GT Stomper Ace is off to a good start.
There’s a set of mechanical disc brakes fitted and it comes with Kenda’s Small Block Eight tyres which are a good all-rounder.
At the front, GT has opted for an SR Suntour XCM suspension fork that gives 100mm of travel which, although a budget option, can be adjusted (softer/firmer) with the preload dial.
