Junior bikes FAQs
What is a junior bike?
A junior bike is just right for kids who’ve outgrown their small bikes but aren’t ready for full-size ones yet. Made for ages 5 to 12, they’re lighter, easier to handle, and built to match growing confidence and ability. They're the perfect in-between bike for young riders.
What size is a junior bike?
Junior bikes come in sizes from 16" to 26" wheels. The right fit depends on your child’s height more than their age. Getting the right sized bike for your child really impacts how comfortable and safe they feel when riding. Halfords has a great range and can give expert advice on how to pick the right size.
