Please note: At Smuggs, we want every family member to have a great time on the trails. If your child has outgrown a youth bike, a larger size may be necessary for their comfort. We offer a full range of rentals, including adult-sized bikes, to fit everyone, and our team is here to help with bike selection. With the right bike and a trail map, you’re all set for an amazing adventure!
