What size children's bike does my child need?

The right size for a children's bike is determined by the wheel size in inches. In our handy size chart above, you will find guidelines based on age and height: 16 inch (4-6 years / 105-115 cm), 20 inch (6-8 years / 115-125 cm), 24 inch (8-10 years / 125-140 cm) and 26 inch (10-14 years / 140-155 cm). Tip: never buy a bike to grow into; your child must always be able to safely touch the ground with both feet.

Is the children's bike delivered ready to ride, or do I have to assemble it myself?

All our children's bikes are delivered 100% ready to ride. This means no hassle with manuals, tools, or loose pedals. Our mechanics will adjust the saddle and handlebars to your child's height before dispatch, so they can hop on and ride safely right away.

Have the second-hand children's bikes been safety checked?

Safety is our absolute priority, especially for children. Every child's bicycle undergoes our strict 25-point inspection. Brakes (coaster and hand brakes), tires with sufficient tread, a fully enclosed chain guard, safe handlebar grips, and functioning reflectors/lights are thoroughly tested and replaced where necessary.

What if the children's bike turns out to be too big or too small after all?

No problem at all. You get a standard 14-day cooling-off period. Returns or exchanges are possible within two weeks. View our returns page for the terms and conditions. In addition, you have a 30-day warranty on all moving parts.

How quickly and how will the children's bicycle be delivered?

Orders placed on business days before 12:00 PM are delivered to your home for free the very next business day throughout the Netherlands and Belgium. Our own courier will personally deliver the bike to your door, ready to ride.

Frequently asked questions about children's bikes

Buying second-hand children's bikes is always a sensible choice. Children grow quickly, meaning you have to buy a bike several times during their early years. In that case, it is a waste to buy a new bike every time. Second-hand children's bikes are often used less than regular bikes, so you can often buy a second-hand children's bike that is as good as new.

Cheap second-hand children's bikes

If you are looking for a cheap children's bike, a second-hand bike is a good choice. By buying a second-hand children's bike, you save a lot of money compared to a new bike, especially when you have to buy a bike for your children more often. In addition, it is also good for the environment when you choose a second-hand children's bike. Buying a second-hand bike is not only cheaper but also sustainable.
