If your dream is to shred the park with your little grom, save yourself over a thousand dollars off the price of a new kids' DH bike and buy this B Line! My 8 year old rode this bike last season and my older son rode it until he was 12. The stand over height is 27" and the top tube length is 20"
It is a nice, clean bike that I bought used and I have carefully maintained. It has some scratches from typical park use. Brakes work great, suspension is smooth and quiet, derailleurs shift crisply and all bearings are smooth and free of play. Here are the original specs from Norco's website:

We have made the following upgrades:
- Specialized large platform pedals in plastic (good grip and less damaging to little shins)
- Cane Creek head set
- DH inner tubes front and rear
- Kenda Nevagal 24 x 2.5 front tire, DH casing, Stick-E rubber (like new)
- Vee Rubber 24 x 2.6 rear tires, E-Compund rubber (half way worn)
