Norco Storm Size Guide:

  • Norco Storm 16": Generally suitable for children aged 4 to 6 years old, or those with a height of around 3'5" to 3'10" (approximately 104 - 117 cm). These come as single-speed bikes to keep things simple for younger riders.

  • Norco Storm 20": Typically fits children aged 6 to 9 years old, or those with a height of around 4'2" to 4'8" (approximately 127 - 142 cm). This model comes with a simple 6-speed gear system to introduce them to shifting.

  • Norco Storm 24": Usually best for children aged 10-14 years and older, or those with a height of around 4'2" to 4'8" (approximately 127 - 142 cm). If too tall, a small sized adult bike will work great!

DISCLAIMER: These age ranges are just guidelines. The most crucial factor is the child's height and inseam to ensure a comfortable and safe fit on the bike. It's always recommended to have a child try out the bike with us in person at Cycle Whistler to confirm it's the right size for them.
