Designed around the needs of youngsters getting their first pedal-driven bikes. Small lightweight frames mean riders can easily stand over the frame, get their feet on the ground, helping to build their confidence. With hard-wearing, scratch-resistant decals and a rigid steel fork to withstand the rough use at playtime. Easy ride geometry builds their confidence to improve balance and riding skills. Fitted with a kid's specific saddle, smaller, narrower bars, smaller diameter grips, reach-adjustable brakes and a shorter crankset to suit smaller riders. Designed to take higher volume 16" x 2.125" tyre, the Skid 16 has plenty of mud clearance. These bigger tyres increase the contact area and providing a more comfortable ride, extra control and grip. To keep your child’s clothing and fingers out to the drivetrain, the bike comes with a chain guard that completely covers the chain and chainrings. The Skid 16 also comes with lightweight training wheels that can easily be removed once they have been outgrown.
