The safest children's bike meets a combination of size, visibility, reliability, and comfort. By investing in a bike that meets these criteria, you not only provide your child with a safe ride but also the confidence to enjoy their cycling adventures. Choose carefully and regularly check the condition of the bike to ensure it is always in top shape.
Ensure a Visible Bike
Make your child's bike highly visible with reflectors, a flag, and working front and rear lights. Bright clothing or a safety vest can also help make your child more visible to motorists.
Regularly Check the Bike
A well-maintained bike is a safe bike. Regularly check the brakes, tires, chain, and frame to ensure everything is functioning properly. If something is wrong with the bike, we will come to you for free to ensure your child can ride safely and worry-free again!
Always Wear a Helmet
A helmet can prevent serious head injuries in the event of a fall. Make sure your child always wears a properly fitting helmet, even for short trips. Plus, they are lovely!
Training Wheels Can Help!
For younger children who are just learning to ride, training wheels can provide extra stability. We ensure they are correctly mounted and easy to remove when your child is ready!
Reliable Brakes and a Durable, Stable Frame
The frame should be sturdy and durable, made from materials like steel or aluminum.
Ensure a Properly Fitting Bike
A bike that is too large or too small can be difficult to control and is unsafe. Make sure your child's bike is the right size for their height and age.
