18 Inch Retro Kids Bike with Wicker Basket, Kickstand and Training Wheels, Yellow
The largest size in pale yellow, with a wicker basket, a kickstand and a 132 lb seat capacity. The maker gives riders 47.2 to 59.1 inches tall, an inseam of 22.5 to 25 inches, a saddle from 23.5 to 26 inches and bars from 32.5 to 34 inches.
Pale yellow, a woven basket and brown leather-look fittings, on the largest frame in this range. The practical differences from the 16 inch are a higher saddle band, four more inches of handlebar height, a kickstand and a seat rated to 132 lb instead of 110. The fit question does not change: the inseam decides, and the saddle floor is the number to check it against.
The bike
A solid carbon steel frame in pale yellow with a woven front basket, a brown saddle and matching grips, a white chain guard, a kickstand and two removable training wheels. The proportions at this size are closer to a small adult bicycle than to a first bike.
The maker's specification table
The 18 inch row reads: riders 47.2 to 59.1 inches tall, a saddle of 23.5 to 26 inches, an inseam of 22.5 to 25 inches and a 132 lb capacity. The panel draws where each of those measurements is taken on the bike, and the note above it asks you to measure the child's inseam before buying.
Where the height comes from
The saddle covers 23.5 to 26 inches and the bars 32.5 to 34 inches, each held by its own clamp. Set the saddle first, low enough that both feet go flat on the ground, then bring the bars up until the child sits upright instead of reaching forward.
Large threaded tires
The maker calls the tires wear resistant, anti-slip and shockproof, and pictures them on cement and asphalt. At 18 inches the contact patch is large enough to make a difference on rough pavement.
What is on this bike
Saddle 23.5 to 26 in
Held by a locking clamp, and the maker photographs three stacked saddle positions to show the range.
Handlebar 32.5 to 34 in
The bars move on their own clamp, so reach and saddle can be set separately.
132 lb seat capacity
Published against this row of the maker's table.
Wicker basket and bell
A woven front basket and a bell on the bars, on a solid carbon steel frame with a brown saddle and grips.
Kickstand and two brakes
This size adds a kickstand, on top of the hand lever and the rear coaster brake.

Who is this perfect for?
Riders 47.2 to 59.1 in tall
The maker's height band for this wheel size, against an inseam of 22.5 to 25 in.
Parents who want it to look like a bike
A woven basket, a brown saddle and matching grips, rather than cartoon decals. It is a styling choice and it costs more than the plain version of the same thing.
Beginners with a grown up alongside
Two removable training wheels, a coaster brake that needs no hand strength and a hand lever for when the fingers reach.
What we stand behind
- The suitable age, rider height, inseam, saddle height, handlebar height and 132 lb seat capacity here are the manufacturer's own published figures for the 18 in.
- The manufacturer states the bike complies with ASTM and CPSIA standards, and prints ASTM and CPSC with CPSIA marks in the gallery. We repeat that as their claim and quote no certificate number, because none is published.
- 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 United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
