The BTwin Rockrider ST900 model is a generously equipped kids mountain bike with a new lightweight aluminium frame design paired with a Suntour XCT suspension fork with 50mm of travel to help cushion the lumps and bumps of forays through woods and forests.
Aimed at riders between the ages of 9 and 12, the ST900 takes the game a step further than its ST500 sibling, with the fitment of mechanical disc brakes front and rear for added stopping power, plus an 8 speed gearing system with a single chainring at the front for simplicity and operated with a Shimano Altus thumbshifter and derailleur. The Rockrider ST900 also compares favourably with bikes carrying a higher price tag in terms of weight, coming in at 12kg including pedals.
At £349.99 the BTwin Rockrider ST900 is a bike with reasonable weight and specification that will be more than up to the task of putting smiles on your kids faces.
