CUBE Acid 260

Serious mountain bikes for adults come with disc brakes. They are simply safer and more reliable, especially in bad weather. So, it makes sense that a serious junior bike like the Acid 260 Disc also has them. This ensures that young riders can maintain control of their mountain bike when the conditions require it. Comfort and grip are also a priority; a Suntour front fork offers 80mm of smooth suspension travel. And a 2x8 Shimano drivetrain ensures that even on steep hills, the top can be reached. In short, this is a true mountain bike, just a smaller size.

Keen young riders will benefit from a bike that fits their needs – literally. The Acid 260 is every inch a trail-capable mountain bike, scaled down to perfectly fit pint-sized riders. With 80mm of bump-swallowing travel, the Suntour suspension fork improves comfort and control. Shimano's smooth and reliable 16-speed gears have the range to tackle any climb, and powerful disc brakes provide loads of stopping power. It's everything they need for trail adventures.Frame descriptionNo half-measures, even for our junior bikes. That's why the Acid 260 uses the same mechanically formed, double-butted, heat-treated 6061 aluminium tubes as our adult range. Combined with our Agile Ride Geometry, it makes for a frame that'll allow your child's skills to develop as their confidence grows. And there's a replaceable gear hanger, too, so that a crash needn't be the end of the world.
