The Islabikes Beinn bike range is a boon for parents looking to get a simple, high quality, high value bike to get their kids interested in cycling. Building up from the Beinn 20 Small for kids from 112cm/3’8″ tall, the new 650B wheeled Beinn 27 will fit bigger kids around 146cm/4’9″ or taller.
Islabikes Beinn 27 growing kid’s multi-purpose bike
Islabikes sizes all of their kid’s bikes by inseam length for a comfortable fit and pedaling efficiency to keep kids enjoying the ride – developing a next generation of cyclists. The previous Beinn range covered a minimum 47cm/18.5″ to a 74cm/29″ maximum inseam with 20-26″ wheels, generally for kids 5-10 years old. But now the new Beinn 27 adds a 68cm/27″ min – 80cm/31.5″ max inseam length range for taller, growing kids from 10 years and up.
Tech Details
Technically the Beinn 27 is the same as Islabikes’ smaller offerings with a quality aluminum frame and lightweight alloy components sized specifically for the comfort of smaller riders. And it really is just a replacement for the old Beinn 26 Large. But updating to the latest wheelsize gives the bike better fit & performance to keep new cyclists riding, while taking advantage of the largest wheels a rider can comfortably fit on.
