What is the right size children's bike?

When picking out a new children's bike, it is important that you choose the right size bike. The child must feel safe therefore it is not wise to choose a bike for growth. If the children's bike is too big and feels to the child, the child will not enjoy learning. Rather a little too small than too big.

Are you in doubt? If so, we recommend you take a look at our bike selection guide.

When does my child need training wheels?

On average, your child will be able to learn to ride a bike without training wheels from 5 years old, but this is certainly not a rule of thumb! Remove the training wheels from the bike when your child is ready. This means that your child is no longer anxious on the bike and can cycle with good balance. To practice balancing with the security of the training wheels, you can also adjust them a little higher; this will teach your child to balance and the bike will still be kept in balance by the training wheels should things go wrong.
