Rad kids' bikes: Propain brings the dirt sparrow

After the junior bikes Frechdax and Yuma, Propain is now rolling out a hardtail for the little ones. The bike called Dreckspatz comes with 20" wheels and is designed to ensure maximum riding fun for the youngsters.

For kids who are mainly out and about in the bike park or who are already venturing into technical terrain, Propain's full-suspension Frechdax is still the right choice. For everyone else looking for a bike for flowing trails or pump tracks, the new Dreckspatz is the right choice. This is where the bike should play to the strengths of a hardtail in terms of propulsion and weight and guarantee maximum riding fun for the next generation.

"Weight plays a key role in the development of a children's bike, as just a few hundred grams can make a significant difference for small and light riders. By specially designing and optimizing the tubesets, we were able to reduce the frame weight to 1,300 g," says Tobias Söltl from Propain.

In addition to the frame, the choice of components is also an important factor for children's bikes. The range of lightweight and well-designed children's parts is very limited. Propain has therefore developed its own product line: Under the "1st Ride" label, a carbon suspension fork, cranks, handlebars, stems and wheels are rolling into the range.

The Dreckspatz is available online for EUR 899. And it is now available in two equipment variants and two frame colors - green and blue.
