A sporty and light children's mountain bike on the 29er principle, for people from approx. 1.60 m (if necessary also up to 8-9cm below).

The super-light sports hardtail

Matz is the original and founder of a new class of sporty kids mountain bikes. Whether you want to race XC or go on long tours, you don't need more than Matz. But also not less. Size Matters has always been the motto at VPACE and the transfer of the 29er concept was adapted for children's mountain bikes for the first time with Matz. The combination of modern geometry, large wheels and well thought-out equipment makes Matz the perfect partner for cross country.

Magura MT4 brakes with HC-lever

The Magura MT4 brake with adjustable 1-finger aluminium lever and 160mm rotors offers maximum control and braking power. Perfect for precise braking and minimal effort on long descents.

Narrow Crank for Narrow Hips

The lightweight VPACE SL kids’ crank with 150mm Q-factor is specially designed for young riders. It ensures optimal ergonomics and efficient power transmission - perfect for kids. The 3-hole direct mount standard makes changing chainrings a breeze.

VPACE SL Wheels with DUKE Rims

The Lucky Star Ultra rims in our specially designed VPACE SL wheels offer high stability, low weight and outstanding performance with an internal width of 23.5 mm. They offer a light rotating mass and the perfect balance between stiffness and comfort - easily converted to tubeless if required.

What Matz can do

What we wanted to do better with Matz compared to other frames on the market:

A shorter rear triangle makes the frame very agile and weight transfer to the rear wheel becomes child's play.
The steeper seat angle in combination with the right crank length makes ergonomic pedaling possible.
The shortened top tube and head tube enable make for a fun-handling bike - just as it should be for children.
Elegant and well-dimensioned tubing reduces weight - a good basis for a lightweight kids’ bike.

From the outset, the frame is designed with child-friendly components in mind so as to form a sensible unit between both:

Front derailleurs are superfluous and complicate the shifting process. Therefore, single drive with the widest possible range is what we went for
The frame was developed for disc brakes - disc only

The 29er principle

Kids who are put on 20 inch bikes by other manufacturers start out on 24 inch bikes with us and benefit especially from the smoothness and riding stability. Our bikes are more or less a 29er based on 20 - 29 inch wheels. Thanks to the larger wheels, obstacles are better negotiated and the young athlete gains from more riding confidence and also an increase in speed. What's more, it simply looks damn good - just like the big ones!

Range of use

The Matz29 Large corresponds to a category 3 mountain bike. Bikes in this category can also be used on rough trails, in rough terrain and on difficult routes that require good riding technique. Jumps and drops can occur here up to a maximum height of 61cm. The Matz29L youth bike is designed for a rider weight of max. 70 kg.
