Pairs well with

Our team of discerning testers (our own kids) have high standards — single-speed gearing to keep things simple in those first pedalling days and short-reach brake levers so even the smallest hands can engage the disc brakes  when things get rowdy. 

 

The Cub Scout 16” is stabiliser compatible for riders still mastering their balance, and like the rest of the range, it features a low standover height and adjustable saddle to keep the fit dialled as they grow. Off-road tyres deliver maximum grip, while lightweight wheels help reduce tired legs — everything they need for bigger smiles and longer rides.

 

Kids Specific Components

Little hands and little feet call for components to suit. We’ve selected child-friendly components such as; Kids specific saddle and seat post and smaller kid-specific handlebars and grips as well as small platform pedals. As mountain bikers, we know having the all-important touchpoints dialled ensures comfort and confidence.


Proper fit and function of components are essential for kids bikes because adult components are not optimised for smaller people. To ensure that these bikes fit and function perfectly, we took the time to test and develop our own or work with our partners to select the best kids-specific components we could find on the market.


Feature Highlights Include:

  • Nukeproof kids specific Saddle, Grips & Handlebars
  • Kids specific brake levers
  • Custom butted Cub Scout 16” Frame and Fork
  • Small person optimisation- kids specific componentry
  • Lightweight wheel builds Front: 16H, Rear: 20H
  • Easy 25x14T Singlespeed Gearing
  • Specific resized cranks
  • Off-road tyres
