KIDS BIKES
Why buy a bike for your child?
Even if our love of cycling is slightly clouding our judgement, we cannot emphasize enough the benefits of cycling for your kids.
As well as being an instrument of pure and simple fun, riding a bike will be an essential skill that will stay with your child all his life. It improves balance & physical fitness and benefits your child’s development and mental health. Kids that cycle to school have been proven to be more focused.
It also helps establish healthy exercise habits that will stay with them all of their lives.
As cycling is for everybody and all ages, it is an ideal family activity. If you are running after precious quality time with your kids, we recommend you buy them a bike and go out together.
How to choose the right bike for your child?
Buying a kid's bike can be a bit daunting. There are so many brands and styles to choose from; it can be disheartening.
However, choosing the right bike for your child is not as complex as it looks. The biggest question you need to ask yourself is WHAT SIZE?
Click here for our size guide.
It is primordial that you pick a size that fits your child correctly. It might be tempting to buy a slightly bigger size to get more years out of it. However, if the bike is too big, there is a risk that your child cannot reach the handlebars or operate the brakes, making it dangerous. A bike wrongly sized can ruin your child’s cycling experience and put him off cycling altogether.
If in doubt when choosing your child’s bike, feel free to contact us for advice.
What is the difference between a kid’s bike and an adult bike?
Where some children might be big enough to go for an adult’s bike, we’d recommend you stick with a bigger kid’s model until your child is at least 12years old. Kid’s bikes have a simplified gear system, and adult bikes tend to be too complex for children. You might end up having to service the bike more than you’d wish to.
