![]() ![]() We moms even hopped on this Btwin 24 inch bike ourselves, and we can attest to the Rockrider’s quality brakes! Not only are they surprisingly smooth and easy to engage, they are also easy to adjust. Brake Performanceĭue to faster speeds and steeper inclines, brake performance is essential on any all-terrain bike and the brakes on the Rockrider 24 did not disappoint.įlying down steeper sections of trails can be a bit nerve-racking on a budget bike (that usually have less-than stellar–brakes), but our testers showed no hesitancy with the Rockrider. While certainly not as smooth and precise as our favorite higher-end brands, for its price, the Btwin Rockrider’s performance was honestly a bit shocking (and in a good way!). While going over jumps and over rocky sections, it easily rolled on through without the common audible “clunk” of standard budget bikes. While the Rockrider ST100 does not have a suspension fork like the ST500 and ST900, it does come complete with knobby tires that provide plenty of grip for loose surfaces. ![]() Considering its low price, the Btwin Rockrider performed like a champ and much better than anticipated! They are certainly heavier than more expensive brands, but for those on a tighter budget, they can’t be beat for their price.ĭesigned for basic trails, we immediately put the Btwin to work on our neighborhood dirt trails. The more advanced your child is, especially on trail riding, the higher the model number that is appropriate for them.īased on our experience with the ST100 (we have not seen the ST500 or the ST900 in person), the Rockriders provide amazing quality for the price. ![]() There are several differences between the three different models, and which bike is best for your child really depends on how you plan on using it. The ST100 is the base model, which this review is based on. All three Rockriders have the same size frame and are designed to fit the same size child. The Rockrider 24 is available in three models – the ST100, ST500 and the ST900. The red ST100 is only available through. The ST500 and ST900 are only available in one color, but the ST100 is available in the white and black color shown throughout this review as well as a red and black version. The Rockrider line comes in 3 different models that vary in color and quality of components. The components between the two are the same except the Btwin Original 500 (the bike with the basket above) comes with a metal basket, fenders, and a chainguard, while the more basic Btwin Original 100 Kids version does not. The Original line (click for our review) comes in two color variations. On the heavier side for a 24 inch bike (but still light weight for its price)ītwin sells 5 different 24 inch bike models that are available in two different lines – the Original Line, designed for city riding, and the Rockrider line designed for all-terrain riding.Sticker decals likely to come off with time.Does not come with kickstand (but does have a mount for one). ![]()
