Islabikes

The Creig 26 was aimed at ages 9+ and features a 26″ wheel. The specification on the Creig 26 is close to what you would expect on a quality, lightweight hardtail aimed at adults.

Featuring a lightweight aluminium frame and a Rock Shox 30 Gold RL air sprung suspension fork, the Creig 26 is kept light and prepared for a wide-range of off-road riding.

At 11kg the Creig 26 is about as light as it comes.

The Creig 24 was aimed at ages 8+ and features a 24″ wheel. The Creig 24 is a lot of bike for an 8 year old and is packed full of features.

Featuring a lightweight aluminium frame and a Rock Shox 30 Gold RL air sprung suspension fork. The Creig range is kitted out with Stan’s No Tubes tubeless ready rims laced to Islabikes own cartridge bearing equipped hubs. The Creig 24 features SRAM Level hydraulic disc brakes, with a 160mm rotor on the front and a 140mm rotor on the rear.

There’s plenty of gear range in the form of an 8 speed 11-40T Sun Race cassette, paired with a 26T narrow-wide chainring.

Gear selection is taken care of with a SRAM X4 rear mech and thumb shifter.

At 10.6kg the Creig 24 is hard to beat weight-wise.

The Islabikes Beinn 26 is a multi purpose kids bike that is equally at home on the school run as bike packing across Europe.

The ability to easily add a pannier rack, mudguards and a bottle cage means you can tailor the bike to suit the type of riding you’re doing.

The Beinn’s come with a frame that is designed to fit a child like a glove, components are proportioned for children’s bodies.

The gearing on the Islabikes Beinn 24 is very simple and easy to use with a Sram twist grip shifter. The Beinn comes with the usual spread of 8 gears from the  Sram 12 – 32 cassette which means it will get up all but the steepest of hills.

With the ability to fit mudguards, pannier rack and bottle cage it’s not surprising the Beinn is a popular choice for both the daily school commute and long distance bikepacking adventures.

Islabikes had two frame sizes for their Beinn 20 – the large is suitable for slightly taller children who are looking to move onto their first geared bike.

The attention to detail on an Islabike is second to none, which is why these bikes are popular with families who are doing long-distance cycling or the daily commute to school in all weathers.

You can add pannier racks, mudguards, bottle cages – everything a serious young cyclist needs to get the miles in.

The Beinn range was Islabikes’ multi-purpose, do-it-all range. Aimed at those who want to do a bit of everything. The Beinn 20 is split into two sizes, the Beinn 20 Small and Large.

The Beinn 20 Small is intended for ages 5+ and features a lightweight aluminium frame and fork, with micro reach brake levers that operate aluminium V-brakes.

The drivetrain features a 7 speed 11-34T cassette and a 32T aluminium chainring with a plastic double chain guard.

As with all Islabikes, the Beinn 20 Small features proportionately sized crank arms, in this instance 114mm.

The Beinn 20 Small weighs in at 7.4kg.
