Understanding the weight of a bicycle is important when choosing the right bike, especially for children. The weight affects how easy the bike is to handle, carry, and ride, making it a key factor for parents and young riders.
Below is the weight information for our range of children’s bikes, listed by wheel size. This will help you choose the best fit based on your child’s age, strength, and riding needs.
Bike Size (inch) | Net Weight (kg) |
12 | 8.8 |
14 | 10.3 |
16 | 10.9 |
18 | 11.4 |
20 | 11.8 |
Why Bike Weight Matters
- Easier Handling: Lighter bikes are easier for kids to maneuver and control, which builds confidence while riding.
- Portability: A lighter bike is easier for parents to carry when loading or unloading from cars or stairs.
- Performance: Optimal weight helps young riders enjoy a smoother ride without getting tired quickly.
Tips for Choosing the Right Bike Weight
For younger children or beginners, consider lighter models (like 12" or 14") to help them learn to balance and pedal with ease. Older kids who ride longer distances may prefer slightly heavier bikes with added features for durability.
