Vitus Razor Disc 24 Youth Road Bike

Vitus Razor 24 Kids’ Road Bike: The Protégé

A proper road bike built specifically for kids, every detail of the Vitus Razor 24 Kids’ road bike has been carefully chosen to ensure your budding road rider feels confident and stable as they learn.

The Razor 24 uses a lightweight aluminum frame with a geometry tailored for smaller sizes, so it’ll feel to them exactly as a road bike should. At the front, the bike combines a short stem with a compact handlebar to prevent awkward over-reaching. This means that when it comes to negotiating common road obstacles, such as potholes or wet drains, the responsive handling enables your young rider to respond with control. Short-reach shifters are perfect for smaller hands and ensure that the powerful flat-mount disc brakes are always accessible. The bike arrives with 1-inch (25mm) tires, but there is plenty of frame clearance to adapt the setup for a wider tire option if you want a touch more comfort or stability for riding rougher paths. The Microshift groupset uses a single front chainring so maintenance is low, while at the back the rear derailleur, equipped with a chain-tensioning clutch, keeps the shifting light and easy so small fingers can quickly find the gear they need.

There was a time when conventional wisdom said to “buy big and let them grow into it,” but those days are gone. The Vitus Razor 24 is stable, easy to control, lightweight and built specifically for growing riders — putting an end to the era of junior bikes looking and feeling unwieldly.

Start them out on the right road bike and inspire a lifetime of fun. The downside? You’ll soon have to pedal harder just to keep up.
