We are very pleased to introduce our new kids bikes. The biggest innovation is the Barney, a new 16″ singlespeed kids mountain bike. The successful 20″ models Dreckspatz and Frechdax were also renewed from scratch.
With the Bam Bam balance bike that was launched last year and the 24″ Youth Fully Yuma, there are now PROPAIN bikes for absolutely every age.
The video of the new range should not be missing and can be found here:
"Our Kids Bikes are an important and integral part of PROPAIN. The Frechdax was originally developed in 2012 as a special project for my own son, but pretty quickly it became clear that not only our own kids have a need for a real mountain bike in the right size. We are very happy to now pass on the knowledge from 10 years of kids mountain bike development to the next generation."
The Barney is a 16″ singlespeed bike that closes the gap between the Bam Bam and the Dreckspatz/Frechdax. Large volume tires from Vee Tire Co provide damping and grip and if it ever should get too fast on one of the first real bike rides, mechanical disc brakes provide plenty of stopping power.
The Barney will not be available in the U.S. for the time being.
The Dreckspatz and Frechdax have kept their successful geometry, but received an entirely new and optimized tube set, internal cable routing and a SRAM UDH derailleur hanger that can be quickly replaced if necessary.
The in-house developed fork with carbon reinforced crown, adapted air chamber and negative spring provides the best performance for both the kids hardtail Dreckspatz, as well as the kids fully Frechdax.
The classic single-pivot frame with a smartly positioned pivot makes the Frechdax pedal efficient and in interaction with the specially tuned RockShox Monarch shock at the same time very sensitive.
Both bikes are available in Raw and Petrol Dark and can also be customized with Sixpack 1st Ride components in the 4 colors – Black, Lime Green, Raspberry Pink and Sky Blue.
