Kato is a fast and agile hardtail mountain bike that's efficient even uphill. The chassis has been completely revamped with internal cable routing and a modern design. But one thing hasn't changed: Kato is always fun. With its 100mm of travel and nearly maintenance-free components, it's the perfect entry level mountain bike; available in various, splendid, colours and in multiple versions: this version features a triple transmission and with 27.5" wheels. All this at a very competitive price.

Depending on the delivery service and destination, bikes will either be delivered in a large or a small box. Below is a guide as to how your bike will arrive:

• All bikes for delivery within the UK and Republic of Ireland will be delivered in a large box, except for balance bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes.
• All bikes for delivery within the EU on a standard service will be delivered in a large box. Again, the exception is balance bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes.
• All bikes for worldwide delivery outside the EU will be delivered in small boxes.
