Available in either 13″ or 15″ frame sizes, our Squish 26 is a great choice for your little cyclist aged 9 years and over. Of course, at this age, they’re often more grown up than their parents (or so we let them think!), this is why at Squish HQ in Birmingham, we pureposefully designed the colours and graphics to be more subtle. You still get little Squish clinging onto the front of the bike and cool little hints of colour on the rims, headset spacers and even the rear mech hanger, but that’s just a nod to the playful side of Squish….these bikes mean business! With 152mm cranks, 32T chainring and Shimano 8spd 11-32T cassette, there’s enough gear ratio’s to get up most hills when powered on sweets, and enough low gears to race back down. The double-wall alloy rims, powerful alloy v-brakes and robust triple butted frame ensure weight is kept to a minimum, but ensures performance is second to none!

» The world is now your oyster, our 26″ Squish has been designed to look a little more subtle; afterall, 9 year olds are far from babies!

The perfect in-betweener! Not every child is big enough, or confident enough to jump straight from a 16″ wheel bike to a 20″ wheel bike. And feeling comfortable and confident is crucial for your child to enjoy their time on their new bike. Enter our 18″ Squish; not only is this sized perfectly to help make the transition through frame sizes as enjoyable as possible, but it also follows a similar spec to it’s smaller siblings, so no gears to master just yet. 18″ wheels and a 9.5″ frame is ideal for children aged 4 and above. Weight just 6.96kg!

Squish 24” Mountain Bike

Matt Kyle — Sat, 01 Feb 2020 12:36:15 +0000

Our Squish MTB’s are…well, they’re awesome! What child wouldn’t want a cool, lightweight, easy to use mountain bike with suspension forks that are not only lightweight and easy to adjust, but that actually work properly! Using our tried and tested Triple Butted Alloy frame, we’ve added extra strength where needed to ensure it can ride through the bumps with ease. Coupled perfectly with that is the premium lightweight Air suspension forks from SR Suntour. As your child grows/gets heavier, you can add extra air pressure to the forks to offer more resistance over bumps. Likewise, if your child is a lightweight racer (like our bikes!) you can let some air out the fork to ensure they get maximum movement! Really simple!

Everything else is as you’d expect from Squish; great quality, reliable and easy to use. That goes for the 8 speed Shimano Altus gearing with rapidfire shifters, poweful Tektro mechanical disc brakes front and rear, strong double wall alloy rims with Shimano hubs and our fantastic, multi-terrain tyres that roll quickly over woodland trails and beyond….we also added a grey stripe around the edges of the tyre to help them stand out even more.

All this, wrapped up in a package weighing just 11.4kg, and at a price that blows the competition out the water!
