Specialized Jett

We were incredibly impressed by its quality and performance. Extended fit aside, the Specialized Jett is one of the best kids bikes we’ve ever tested. It is, in many ways, comparable to bikes produced by industry-leading kids brands such as Woom, Prevelo and Cleary.

The Specialized Jett is an ideal choice for biking to school, riding with Mom and Dad on the greenbelt, or playing with friends in the cul-de-sac. I’d save a few bucks and go with the Woom or Prevelo instead.

A carefully designed and uniquely adjustable multispeed bike that is pure pleasure to ride… the Jett is lightweight and can be accurately and regularly modified to ensure optimum fit for growing children. The price reflects the quality and longevity of the bike. Expect it to last your child for three summers.

For a do-it-all kids bike, it is excellent. The Specialized Jett 20 represents bikes as transport and bikes as fun, not part of an elite performance pathway, and that is its charm. It’s designed for playing in the park and riding to school, which is what most kids do on their bikes!

An all-round youth bike with a light overall weight, a cool look and lots of riding fun. Thanks to the reduction to the essentials (rigid fork instead of suspension, no lights, no fenders, no rack), the 24” Jett weighs only 10.2 kilos.

It was clearly shown that children could handle the light bikes easier, such as those from Specialized… All bikes except for the Specialized use a Grip Shift. With the exception of the Jett, all models are equipped with traffic-compliant equipment.

Finally, the big brands are investing in producing quality kids’ bikes. The Specialized Jett is a lot of money, but keep in mind it’s going to grow with your child for two years and it’s going to have a great resale value.
