12 Inch Girls Bike with Doll Seat, Basket and Streamers, Lilac

A small child will not leave the bear behind. It goes in a jacket, falls out at the corner, and the ride stops while everyone walks back for it.

There is a padded doll seat fitted behind the rider, plus a basket on the bars. The bear gets belted in and stays there, which is a smaller thing than the brakes and a bigger thing than it sounds.

The bike

A lilac frame with a white front basket, a padded doll seat behind the saddle, ribbons from both grips, a quick release seat clamp and two removable training wheels.

The maker's dimensions table

The 12 inch row reads: riders 31.5 to 41.3 inches tall, an inseam of 18 to 21 inches, a saddle of 19 to 21.5 inches and 145 lb at the seat. The note under it asks you to measure the child's inseam and compare it with the saddle height.

Where the height comes from

The seat runs 19 to 21.5 inches and the bars 25.5 to 27 inches. A quick release lever sets the saddle height and its angle, so the fit can be corrected in the driveway rather than in the garage.

Held by a quick release lever, so the height and the saddle angle change without tools.

The bars adjust separately from the saddle.

The maker prints the same figure against all four wheel sizes.

A small padded seat behind the saddle for a toy, and a white basket on the bars.

A hand lever with a short grip distance and a rear coaster brake, chain fully enclosed.

The maker's height band for this wheel size, against an inseam of 18 to 21 in.

The doll seat behind the saddle is why a favourite toy travels on the bike instead of in a parent's pocket.

A reflector at each end and non-slip pedals come fitted rather than sold separately.

What we stand behind

• The suitable age, rider height, inseam, saddle height, handlebar height and 145 lb seat capacity here are the manufacturer's own published figures for the 12 in.
• The manufacturer prints ASTM International and CPSC with CPSIA marks on their own dimensions panel. 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.
• The listing URL described this as a 16 inch for 4 to 7 year olds with a 12 inches suffix. The product is the 12 inch, whose maker row is 3 to 4 years.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.

What rider does the 12 inch fit?

31.5 to 41.3 inches tall with an inseam of 18 to 21 inches.

Is there really a doll seat?

Yes, a small padded seat behind the rider, and the maker photographs it with a toy strapped in.

Is the bike certified?

The maker prints ASTM International and CPSC with CPSIA marks on their dimensions panel. No certificate number is published, so we quote none.

Is a kickstand included?

No. The maker states the kickstand is for the 18 inch only.
