A bicycle is a reliable means of transport. Increasingly, people living in the city began to change to two-wheeled vehicles. It is economical: no need to pay for travel and gas; useful: supports the body and muscles in good shape, gives a charge of energy for the whole day; environmentally friendly: does not emit harmful exhaust gases into the atmosphere. A bicycle is another way to avoid long traffic jams. This problem especially worries residents of megacities. That is why two-wheeled transport has become so popular. It solves many critical issues. Today, Novatrack bikes are our focus. What is it, what are they all like? Consider the lineup, some of their characteristics, reviews and more.
A little about the manufacturer
Novatrack (bicycles) are produced by a Russian company called Velobalt. It is located in the city of Kaliningrad. It is interesting, but at the same enterprise another brand of bicycles is produced - the Stinger. They also deserve attention. The company began its work not so long ago, back in 2006. Production capacity allows you to produce up to four hundred units per day. The plant has a dedicated team of engineers and designers. Therefore, Novatrack (bikes) is a unique brand. Not some kind of fake. It is very important that the assembly of the Novatrack bicycle is carried out on high-quality equipment imported from the Netherlands, Taiwan and Poland.
Novatrek: brief description
The company produces bicycles for different age groups: for children, adolescents and adults. The main thing is that Novatrack companies do not assemble bikes in parts. At the factory itself, the frame is separately manufactured, the wheel, transmission, carriage assembly, fork and steering shaft, protection and other things are assembled. Many cheap manufacturers just buy inexpensive parts and assemble. So it turns out a new budget bike of not very good quality. And such products are often sold as a separate brand. Therefore, the fact that the Novatrek company itself produces all the necessary parts is already a very good plus.
Novatrack (bikes): Butterfly 16 reviews
It must be said right away that this model belongs to the class of children's bicycles for girls. Why only for them? Because they come in only two colors: blue and pink. The picture on the frame is presented in the form of butterflies. From this, the model is called the Butterfly. In addition, the frame is also made in a special design for girls.
This bike is perfect for a child. He has everything he needs for a little girl.
Novatrek Butterfly 16: Characteristics
This is the most ordinary bike without any depreciation. The frame is made of steel. Therefore, the bicycle must be stored in a dry place, as this material lends itself to corrosion. The unit itself weighs only ten kilograms. This is important because making it will be easier.
The wheels are sixteen inches. Just under the growth of a little girl. And another important point: additional rear wheels are attached to the bike. Thanks to this, the child will be able to quickly learn to ride. Then they just take them off. They come together in a kit.
Of the remaining parts: the rear foot brake (by turning the pedals back), one speed (no rear cassette), the ability to adjust the height of the saddle and steering wheel, saddle with spring, protection on the steering wheel and chain, mudguards, trunk, rearview mirror, basket for things and bell.
Novatrack Titanium 20
This model is also a Novatrack children's bike. The instruction says that children from seven to ten years old can ride it. On it you can not just ride around the yard. It is intended for another. The fact is that this is a mountain bike. And not simple - it's a two-suspension. This means that it has cushioning on the front and rear wheels.
On it you can no longer just ride around the yard, but drive along forest or park paths. It is designed for the style of cross-country skiing: cross-country riding with slopes, climbs and natural obstacles. Perfect for children whose parents often ride bicycles. So you can take a child with you.
The frame is made of steel. Special design makes it easier. Front fork spring-elastomeric construction. This is not a very good option, because it does not work out all the necessary bumps in the relief, only the largest.
Wheels are twenty-inch. Usually 26-inch wheels are placed on mountain bikes, but this is a children's model. It should be suitable for growth. As for braking, there are V-brakes on both the front and rear wheels. They will allow you to slow down in time, if they are well tuned. Rim brakes are inferior to disc brakes, and they have several big disadvantages, but they are cheaper.
Novatrek Titanium 20 is a high-speed unit. He has a special gear selector. He has one asterisk in front, and a cassette of six in the back. A total of six speeds. Switching is due to the rotary knob. It is called a flu shift.
