I remember seeing a web piece on this kids sized Norco full suspension bike......does anyone have a link to it? Was it a NSMB article? Pinkbike?

It would be great to get the link. Thanks!

Yep! But this is actually a favor I thought I'd do for a Dher down in Georgia who has a son getting into the sport and looking for a small sized FS dh rig.

Got the link?

Kona makes a Stinky Jr. that would work nice for a mini DH rig. That is the only 24" wheels Dh-ish bike I know of other than the custom ones someone posted a while back (that cost a TON).

I remember seeing a kid on a mini-chumba at big bear in 2002, it's not going to be as affordable as a norco thats for sure but it may be small enough.

If you're not set on the norco, specialized makes a 24" wheel kid's bike too. It's a smaller version of the single pivot big hit. That one might be a little easier to find. It doesn't look nearly as cool as the norco though............(but you probably knew that).

See, another reason Norco is badazz!!!


I wish my parents bought me little DH bikes when I was a kid!

Hell, they dont even support me in the sport now! Both of my parents hate my sport. Oh well, I love it :)

Has anybody had experience with any of these (not you, your kid)? I like the Specialized price - $700. I don't suppose little tykes put much abuse into these rigs so they should hold up.

When I was in Loegang last summer there was a bunch of kids ripping the bikerx course with the Stinky JR. That bike looked really nice!!!
