Unlike many competitors, Falcon has engineered this bike with an uninterrupted suspension design, allowing for a longer seat-post and greater adjustability as the child grows. This thoughtful design not only enhances adjustability but also contributes to a stronger frame and a more enjoyable riding experience. The robust hi-tensile steel frame is built for durability, while the front and rear suspension systems, featuring springs specifically tuned for younger riders, provide enhanced comfort on rough terrain. The soft spring rates effectively absorb bumps during off-road adventures, and the extra-padded MTB saddle ensures a comfortable ride. The Cobalt boasts a striking appearance complemented by an impressive specification. It features a 6-speed gearing system powered by a Shimano rear derailleur and Revoshift shifter for smooth, reliable gear changes without compromising grip. The double-sided chainwheel guard protects clothing and fingers while keeping the chain securely in place. MTB-style pedals offer excellent grip, and the soft compound handlebar grips are both durable and comfortable. Reliable front and rear V-brakes provide confident stopping power, with reach-adjustable brake levers designed to accommodate smaller hands. The bike is designed to grow with the rider, featuring a long 200mm seat post, an adjustable saddle (fore and aft), and an adjustable quill handlebar stem. The wheels are equipped with strong yet lightweight alloy rims and knobbly MTB tyres for superior off-road traction. The Falcon Cobalt dual suspension mountain bike is a standout choice, perfect for young cyclists learning to master gears and suspension. Suitable for children aged 7-9 years, with an inside leg measurement of 53-60 cm (21-25 inches).
