Most kids outgrow a bike physically before the thing breaks. As a teen or adult, the LBS makes a huge difference in performance and longevity. But for kids, there is no real reason to spend 2-3x as much on a bike they will outgrow in a year.

Sure, but a child’s bike use used for how many years? And most of the time, you don’t even need to maintain them as you are selling it or junking it as they get older.
