Now that our young one has graduated from wobbly pedaler to up-and-coming shredder, it's time to upgrade their bike to the Prevelo Alpha Four. Modeled after a proper adult mountain bike, the Alpha features a lightweight but tough aluminum frame, front and rear V-brakes, and a 9-speed Microshift drivetrain that makes it easy to get up and down the hills. We appreciate that the geometry is low and stable to inspire confidence as our kids fine-tune their bicycle skillset.
