Kid's Bike - Which Size Is Right For Your Child?

Add your own block subtitle

Kids' bikes often come in exciting and fun colors, and with themes that help children learn new things while being entertained at the same time. But not all kids bike brands are created equal. Take a close look at what each of your favorite kids bike companies have to offer. Kids' bikes come in different sizes, too - different sizes than adult bikes (not by frame size, instead by wheel size). Plus, when talking about a kid bike, the seat height, standover angle and handlebar height among brands can vary significantly. Finally, while a child may be advertised as having a mountain bike or something similar, most of them aren't and most companies try to limit their sizing and build quality to make kids bikes that are "big enough" to meet the needs of the average kid.

One of our absolute favorites is Burley. Burley makes kids bikes in many fun and stylish styles. The company is also known for making solid and functional products that are easy to fix and keep in good condition. Burley also stands behind the fact that their kid's bike lines are tested and approved by the US Department of Transportation, which is an important part of our mission. Because of this, we know that your little one is safe on a Burley bike.

The next company to consider when it comes to kids bikes is Trek Bikes. They have a variety of products, including some models made specifically for girls. While the average girl's wheels are 13 inches in diameter, the average wheel size on a model from Trek Bikes is actually a little larger! This is because the company has designed their product to be stiff enough to work well with growing girls' bodies, but still comfortable enough that they'll enjoy riding.

If you're still not convinced about which companies you should choose, then you might want to take a look at these photo courtesy features. All of the photos come from actual rides that the company has conducted, and all of the kids bike sizing information comes straight from the manufacturers themselves. Take a look and see if these features might be something that your little ones would like to see when riding.

* When it comes to size bike reviews, you have quite a few options here. You can read general reviews, or you can read reviews from parents who have actual experience with kids bikes in question. If you're unsure as to whether or not your child needs a specific size bike, then either way you can find great reviews to let you know what you need to know.

* When it comes to the style of bike that your little rider will need, there are a few different options. There are dirt bikes and hybrid styles to choose from, for example. Each has its own set of benefits, and it's up to you to decide which one is the best for you and your children. There are also other types of kids bikes out there, including recumbent bikes, which are perfect for people who don't enjoy riding in the wind or too much traffic. Finally, there are also hybrid bikes for those parents who want their kids bikes to be more than just walking machines. These little four wheels do make a difference!

The main thing to keep in mind when choosing between different kids bike sizes is how safe your child is on the bike. You don't want to choose a size bike that your child isn't ready for. Instead, you want to make sure they are the proper size, and are going to be able to ride safely on the bike. If you get a bike that is too small, they will end up being more apt to fall off, and if they fall off they can risk being injured. On the flip side, if you get a bike that is too big, your child could end up being too heavy, and that can pose a risk to them as well.

Luckily, you don't have to choose between getting a smaller kid's bike or a larger one simply because of size. It's always possible to use two wheels while you're on the bike. In fact, many kids bike models actually allow you to use both front and back brakes at the same time, which gives you much better control, especially if you are riding at higher speeds. This makes a huge difference in safety and allows you to be much more comfortable while you are learning how to ride a kid's bike.
