At face value, it’s easy enough to scoff the need for a $1,700 24-inch kid’s full-suspension mountain bike. And that’s likely why there are not many serious options available. But from what I’ve witnessed with my 10-year-old that, along with her involvement in our local junior development program, the only thing holding kids back from excelling at the sport is having opportunity and the right equipment.

The Norco Fluid 1 HT strikes a great balance between performance and value. Low BB height makes you feel more in the bike and boosts stability.
Balanced handling and great value
Only three size options

Outstanding-value spec on a decent chassis makes the Fluid an enjoyable all-rounder. Buy if you're looking for a great value all-rounder for the trails
Excellent-value suspension units, 1x11 drivetrain and dropper post
Efficient pedalling and fast-rolling tyres make gaining speed easy
External dropper post routing, limited tyre clearance and QR rear axle betray the frame’s age
Steep head angle and frame flex limit confidence in the rough
