<< PREVIOUS Boys Bikes
Girls and boys bikes follow the same design rules and your job is to find the correct size and style for your child. The main difference in boys bikes from girls bikes is the colour. The build of the bike and the quality are the same.
Choose the correct style of bike. Mountain bikes or road bikes are ideal for riding on the roads or off-roading. If he wants to ride to the park or accompany you on cycling trips, it’s better to go for a well made bike than a ‘toy’ bike. For playing in the garden a stable tricycle could be the answer.
Suspensions vary. You can buy boys bikes with no suspension (commonly called rigid bikes) front suspension or dual suspension. If a bike has suspension it will be comfier for him to ride than a bike with no suspension.
There are lots of brands available including Raleigh, Specialized, Camera, Trek or Ferrari. Choose a brand you know and trust or is recommended by a friend. Everyone has their favourite manufacturer, so talk to a few experienced cyclists so you can get an idea of what’s on the market.
There are lots of colours to choose from. Some are specifically for boys and others are suitable for boys and girls. Nowadays, more bikes are produced in bright, light colours for safety reasons.
Some boys bikes are made in the style of a popular TV or Disney character. These are often ‘toy’ bikes and are ideal for first bikes. They come with stabilisers, baskets and bells, or in a three wheeled tricycle style.
Your boys bike will need to be well built and safe. Make sure it’s the right size. Your child should be able to touch the ground.
Buy safety accessories to keep him protected. Helmets and pads are available from most cycle stores, with a huge choice of colours and designs.
As well as fun to ride, a bike helps to teach your child coordination and balance. It provides exercise and teaches new skills. He may want a bike to play in the garden or to ride trails with you at weekends. Whatever he wants to do, there are some excellent choices of boys bikes available. |
