Puky LS-PRO 24-8 - 9.2 kg and 100 kg Total Load

Puky LS-PRO 24-8 is a 24-inch children's bicycle built around an aluminum frame, a low 9.2 kg weight, and child-focused controls. Puky lists it for children from 8 years and 128 cm, placing it between smaller 20-inch bikes and larger youth bicycles.

Light Aluminum Construction

The bike weighs 9.2 kg, according to Puky's product information. Its aluminum frame is joined by an aluminum fork, crank, and seat post, while the 24-inch wheel format matches Puky's sizing guidance for riders from 128 cm.

The manufacturer specifies a maximum total load of 100 kg. That figure includes the rider and bicycle load, not a separate luggage allowance, so accessories and carried items belong within the same limit.

Eight-Speed Youth Setup

A Shimano Tourney 8-speed drivetrain gives the LS-PRO 24-8 a wider gear range than a single-speed children's bike. The independent Kids-Bike-Test listing records an 8-speed setup, rim brakes, and a price of 519.99 euros, while its assessment describes the rigid fork and narrow 1.75-inch tires as choices that reduce weight but limit rough-terrain capability.

The braking system uses child-oriented V-brakes, and Puky says the bike includes a reflector set and non-slip pedals. The bicycle arrives fully assembled except for straightening the handlebars and mounting the pedals, according to the manufacturer's specification page.

Fit, Equipment, And Limits

Puky recommends the 24-inch size from 128 cm, while its LS-PRO sizing overview places 24-inch bicycles from 130 cm. The small difference makes inseam and control reach important when moving up from a 20-inch model.

Compared with the tested LS-PRO 24 listing, the current Puky page names the 9.2 kg model and 100 kg maximum load, while the independent test records 8 gears and rim brakes. The practical tradeoff is direct: low weight and simple mechanical parts suit pavement, bike paths, and light trails, but the rigid fork and relatively narrow tires are less suited to demanding off-road riding.

Position In The Category

Puky LS-PRO 24-8 fits the lightweight 24-inch children's-bike category rather than the suspended youth-mountain-bike category. It suits riders who already manage a bicycle independently and need eight gears for rolling routes, but its equipment favors low weight and straightforward maintenance over suspension or wide off-road tires.
