What are hydraulic disc brakes and why are they important?

Hydraulic disc brakes provide superior stopping power compared to cable-operated brakes, with better modulation and control. This is a premium safety feature that ensures reliable, responsive braking in all off-road conditions - essential for young riders learning to handle more powerful bikes.

Is this suitable for beginners?

The DB27 is best suited for riders with some prior dirt bike experience or those transitioning from smaller bikes. If your child is a complete beginner, we recommend starting with a smaller automatic dirt bike and progressing to the 125cc manual once they've developed basic riding skills.

What is the seat height?

The seat height is approximately 30-32 inches. Riders should be able to touch the ground with both feet (at least on tiptoes) when seated for proper control and safety.

The DB27 can safely accommodate riders weighing up to approximately 150-180 lbs, making it ideal for pre-teens and teenagers.

How much does the dirt bike weigh?

The bike weighs approximately 250 lbs, which provides stability and durability while still being manageable for young riders.

Does it come fully assembled?

The dirt bike arrives approximately 85-90% assembled. Some assembly is required, including handlebar installation, front wheel attachment, brake adjustments, and fluid checks. Detailed instructions are included. We recommend having a mechanically inclined adult or professional mechanic complete the assembly.

What kind of fuel does it use?

The DB27 runs on regular unleaded gasoline. The 4-stroke engine does NOT require oil/gas mixing - simply fill with regular gas and check the oil separately.

What type of engine does it have?

The bike features a reliable 125cc 4-stroke air-cooled single-cylinder engine that delivers excellent power and torque for off-road riding.

How do I start the dirt bike?

The DB27 uses a kick start ignition system. Turn on the fuel petcock, ensure the bike is in neutral, pull in the clutch, and use the kick starter to fire up the engine.

What's the difference between this and an automatic dirt bike?
