The Nerd JR is the ultimate kid’s mountain bike. With 120mm travel front and rear, 24” wheels, and the option to upgrade to 26”, the Nerd will last for years and handle any kind of riding. Great effort has gone into dialing this bike. This is not just another addition to the range like many kid's bikes - we took this project very seriously. Our goal was to make it capable of growing with the child and making it suitable for various types of mountain bike riding - anything from XC to freeride. One of the key features is the possibility to upgrade the bike to 26” when the time comes. After the wheel swap the bike still retains correct geometry thanks to the set of offset shock bushings that are included which lower the BB and slacken the head angle, optimize the handling of the bike for bigger kids (that will most likely will ride faster and more aggressively). Developed and tested by the NS Bikes founder and his son, this is really a dream kid’s bike.
