WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif. (BRAIN) — Prevelo is now offering a kids dirt jumper bike in three wheel sizes, including what the company said is the only 16-inch dirt jumper on the market
The Bravo Series bikes include the Brave Two (16-inch), Bravo Three (20-inch), and Bravo Four (24-inch).
"The impetus for designing the Bravo might have been a touch self-serving," said Prevelo's founder and president, Jacob Rheuban. "When our city got a dirt-jump park, we started spending a lot of time there with our two sons. I knew Prevelo could use our kid-focused design ethos and create a quality dirt jumper. I am even more excited we could bring the first ever 16-inch to market. We believe that dirt jump parks are fun places supported by proactive and engaged communities. More importantly, dirt jump parks are a magnet for kids and families—kids have fun, make friends and build riding skills. And parents have options they don't have with their kids on trails; they can join their kids on the jump line, or spectate while sipping a latte. These parks are truly hubs for building dedicated riders."
The Prevelo Bravo Series frames are aluminum, and the parts spec' includes tunable air forks, ultra-low and light pivotal seats, hydraulic disc brakes, and Novatec hubs laced to WTB rims.
Prevelo Product Manager Jim Huth said the Bravo culminates a long-term vision.
"I grew up riding jumps at the local trails I built with my friends. The jumps were as sketchy as the bikes we rode. I'm envious of the bike parks our kids get to ride on, and the progression it's giving the sport I love. My vision for the Bravo has been to build a bike that allows young riders to take full advantage of what they're given, and to help progress our sport to levels we never thought possible."
The bikes are a available for preorder. For more information visit prevelo.com/collections/bravo-series.
