The Sparrow Junior 27.5/26 is a proper trail hardtail for young riders between 140cm and 160cm tall, built for confidence, control, and fun - the perfect next step for young mountain bikers ready to explore more challenging terrain.
The mini-mullet 27.5"/26" wheel setup blends stability at speed with agility in tight turns. The X-Fusion RC32 air fork with 130mm travel provides smooth suspension performance, while the Shimano Cues 1x9 drivetrain with a wide-range 11-46T cassette gives plenty of gears for both climbing and descending.
Stopping is handled by Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with short-reach junior levers, and the 2-pcs Prowheel Charm crankset ensures reliable power transfer. Like its smaller sibling, this bike rolls on Dartmoor Raptor rims and Kenda Amrak tires for great grip and durability.
For 2026, the Sparrow Junior 27.5/26 arrives in brand-new colorways - the bold Solar Eclipse fade combining yellow and black, and the sleek Cool Grey/Blue - both finished with new, youthful graphics.
