16 Inch Kids Bike with Adjustable Handlebar and Seat for Ages 4 to 7, Light Blue
Rider height of 41.5 to 51 inches is the band this size is built for, and it is a wider window than the age suggests. The maker pairs it with an inseam of 19.5 to 23.5 inches, a saddle from 21.5 to 25.5 inches, bars from 28 to 30.5 inches and a 99 lb seat capacity.
The frame and the finish
Pale blue on carbon steel, low over the top tube, with brown grips, a brown padded saddle and a white basket clipped to the bars.
Reading the size table
The 16 inch row gives ages 4 to 7, riders 41.5 to 51 inches tall, an inseam of 19.5 to 23.5 inches and a 99 lb seat capacity. Measure the inseam rather than count birthdays.
Where it rolls well
Air filled rubber, 2.1 inches wide. The maker pictures concrete, asphalt, brick paver and boardwalk. Air soaks up a rough path better than a foam tire and needs a pump now and then.
Four inches of seat post
Saddle and bars both climb. Raise them a little at a time so the rider keeps a toe down at every stop.
What is on this bike
Saddle 21.5 to 25.5 in
Four inches of adjustment at the seat post clamp.
Handlebar 28 to 30.5 in
Move the bars with the seat to keep the back upright.
Hand brake and coaster brake
Short pull lever at the front, back pedal brake at the rear.
Training wheels included
Two stabilisers on the rear axle, removable.
Basket and bell
A basket that lifts off and a bell beside the grip.

Who is this perfect for?
Riders 41.5 to 51 inches tall
The maker's own height band, and a sounder test than the age on the box.
Children losing the stabilisers
Most riders at this size drop the training wheels within a season.
Paved paths and school runs
Air tires and a 16 inch wheel roll well on concrete, asphalt and boardwalk.
What we stand behind
- The age band, rider height, inseam, saddle height, handlebar height and 99 lb seat limit are the manufacturer's own published figures.
- The maker shows ASTM and CPSC or CPSIA marks on its own product panel. That is their claim, repeated as such, with no certificate number.
- No helmet is included. A helmet belongs on every ride, and eight Canadian provinces have helmet legislation, three of them for riders under 18.
- This is a bike for supervised riding on paths, driveways and parks, never on a road.
- Ships from our Canadian or United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
Frequently asked questions
Is a 16 inch right for a six year old?
Check the leg first. The maker asks for a rider height of 41.5 to 51 inches and an inseam of 19.5 to 23.5 inches, and the saddle starts at 21.5 inches.
Will they get both feet down?
With the saddle at its lowest and an inseam of 21.5 inches or more, yes. Sizing guides suggest a learner is happiest with the saddle at about inseam height.
Do the tires need air?
Yes, they are pneumatic. Check the pressure at the start of the season and every few weeks in use.
What is left to build?
The maker states 95 percent pre-assembled. Handlebar, pedals, basket, bell and training wheels, then a bolt and pressure check.
