RALEIGH Bikes Lily Kids Mountain Bike

I bought this bike (20") for my 4yr old and I bought the Lilly 24 for my 6year old. After then cycling 900 miles in one year. I can guarantee, that these are great light and sturdy quality bikes. They are half price of a Woom bike, similar weight. After 900 miles all pieces still look in very good conditions. Nothing broken. just some scoffs from wear and tear.my youngest daughter had not reached the inseam height yet, she had to do a little jump to get on the bike and the handle bars were a little forward for her at the time. So I added a handle adjuster, so I angled the handle bar as I wanted - height and a little extended but not over extended, mainly because she was small. but I feel one year later, this would not be needed, as I actually now need to extend it out again. The slightly extended position gave her more push and less fatigue on the uphill, especially when doing a lot of miles.People that have complained about assembling the bike, I had no issues. It was perfectly fine

A great step-up from a training wheel bike. My child is now 55” 68 lbs and have long since out grown the first bike. Shopped around and decided on this Raleigh 24” due to its price and weight. We could have spent 2x more $ and would have ended up with the same type of frame and components so we are definitely happy to have made this purchase and above all, our child loves the color 🤣

A bit of a stretch leaning forward to the bars and not so easy for our 7 year old daughter to ride.We would have been better getting her a bike with a lower middle bar and a bit more of an upright ride (handle bars higher).She didnt like riding it when we first got it but has slowly got used to it.

This bike is great. Anyone that says the bike doesn't stay together or is hard to put together simply doesn't know what they are doing. The bike is worlds better than what you will find At Walmart or other stores for a similar (maybe slightly lower) price. My 7 year old has been riding it hard for 14.months with absolutely no issues

Note: Bike was purchase for my 9 year old daughter.I do not usually leave reviews, but for this one, I must! I am very disappointed especially because I spent so much money on a bike my daughter cannot ride ($330 without a kick stand). The front wheel does not stay tight in the handle bars and my husband has tightened it MANY times! It is not safe for her to ride as it becomes loose shortly after riding it. (See attached pictures on how the wheel is sideways.)I am also not impressed that the handle bars cannot be raised. She is hunched over. (I just measured the handle bars to the ground, and it is 31 inches. The tires are 24 inches. My 11 year old son also has 24 inch tires, but his handle bars are much higher and much more comfortable to hold on to.)We bought the bike in August during the pandemic for her birthday, and bikes were hard to buy then. I cannot return it and now have a useless bike in the garage. I HIGHLY recommend not buying bikes off of the internet!!!! Go to Walmart, Target, or bike shop instead so you can test it out first! Expensive lesson for me to learn! UGH!

The bike checks all the boxes. Lightweight aluminum frame, no front shock, and multi speed drivetrain. My kiddo is 44” tall and this bike is excellent for them and the position is very stable and more like how an adult on a mtb or road bike would be positioned. From the box being opened to riding was less than 30 minutes of assembly. Just make sure everything is tight and straight then adjust the brakes (find a YouTube video if you don’t know how to do this or have your lbs assemble). Would buy again.

I was on the fence about spending a lot on "premium" lightweight 20" bike with multiple gears. I looked at the Priority 20, woom 4 but those bikes had long lead times for delivery (I'm sure from china with CV-19 delay)...that said, I looked at Dicks for similar bikes with better price points...I think getting a bike that small with a front suspension fork is pointless and adds more weight to the bike as I lifted a bike to check the weight and it was around if not over 30 lbs...for a 45 lb child, that's going to be really heavy.I saw the Lily 20 on Amazon prime and it fit the bill - 6 rear gears with a rigid fork and the price is right and Amazon has a payment plan to split it payments up over 5 payments interest free!There are some caveats about this bike - that don't quite make it a deal breaker, but I need to call them out:1) The box had instructions but as other posters noted - no information on how to adjust the rear derailleur. Luckily I have built a road bikes and mountain bikes in my day so not an issue for me but I am sure this may be problematic for others...but adjusting all these parts can be found on youtube.2) I have yet to weigh the bike, but it feels like it weighs 1.5 lb heavier than advertised towards the back of the bike.3) The front handlebar is going to be too low and too far forward for smaller children. My child is almost 48" tall and she complained about having to stretch too far forward...this is a comfort concern and safety issue if they have to maneuver out of the way or slam on the brakes to control the bike. I ended up getting a riser handlebar to raise up the grips/brake levers and she loves the bike now. Maybe in two more years I will re-install the OEM handlebars once she gets taller.4) As with other grip-twist shifts - for small children they might be able to upshift to higher gears, but my 6yo needs to stop then use two hands to downshift as it requires more force to open up the rear derailleur. This becomes an issue if they need to quickly lower the gear to climb a steep hill. Their small hands will get stronger with age.5) The bike I got had a bend in one spoke on the rear wheel, probably from packaging. Not an issue for now because the rim does spin true.6) The rear tire looks like it has an exposed small aluminum rash on it about 2mm long. The tire holds 60psi easily but not sure why there would be aluminum beneath the rubber. I'm hoping to be able to keep the bike since my kid really wanted to ride it and just get a replacement tire from the vendor.7) The rear wheel hub along with the 6-speed cassette is not smooth spinning. I'm hoping this improves with breaking in.8) No kickstand - somehow little kids love their kickstands but you can find these for cheap on amazon.3* for now. I will post a long term review after 6 months of use.
