24 inch bike FAQs
What age is a 24 inch bike for?
Usually around 8 to 11 years old, but it really depends on the child's height. It’s that in-between size — not a little kid’s bike anymore, but not quite full-size either. If they’re getting more confident and riding longer distances, a 24-inch is often the right next step.
Can you get stabilisers for a 24 inch bike?
Yes, you can! While they’re not as common on larger bikes, stabilisers for 24-inch wheels are available. They're ideal if your child still needs a bit of help balancing. Just make sure the set you choose fits the bike properly—check the frame and wheel compatibility.
Can adults ride 24 inch bikes?
Technically yes, but it’s not ideal for most. If you’re on the shorter side — say, under 5'4" — it might work for quick trips. But if you're riding often or for longer distances, a full-size bike will just feel a lot more comfortable and easier to handle.
How big is a 24 inch bike?
The 24 inches refers to the wheel size—not the frame. These bikes are made for kids roughly between 4'5" and 4'9" tall. At Halfords, you’ll find a good range of 24-inch bikes that look and feel just like adult bikes, but with sizing made for younger riders.
