How to choose the right bike for your child?

To ensure safe cycling for your child, it is extremely important to choose the right size bike. In addition, make sure the bike is equipped with handbrakes, as most quality bike manufacturers only have bicycles with handbrakes. Subsequent habituation from the foot brake to the handbrake is extremely dangerous and time consuming. In the case of emergency braking, if the handbrake is not used, it is simply cranked upside down. There is no braking and the situation could end tragically. Therefore, we strongly recommend that your child choose a bicycle with handbrakes to ensure safe cycling in the future.

Here we recommend a choice of bicycle size, which depends primarily on the child’s height. Size in inches means the diameter of the bicycle wheel.

12” bike is suitable for children at the age of 2-3.
