12 Inch Kids Bike with Removable Basket and Training Wheels, Blue

The size table on this listing gives the 12 inch saddle as 18 to 21 inches. The photo panel next to it marks the same saddle 17.5 to 21.5 inches. Half an inch at the bottom is the difference between a child getting both feet flat and not.

Everything on this page uses 18 inches as the lowest saddle setting, because assuming the bike goes lower than it does is the mistake that ends with a bike going back. If your child's inseam is between 17.5 and 18 inches, treat this one as borderline.

The bike

A light blue frame with a white basket on the bars, a blue and white frame with a white fork, mudguards over both wheels, a fully enclosed chain guard and two training wheels.

The maker's dimensions table

The 12 inch row reads: ages 3 to 4, riders 31.5 to 41.3 inches tall, a saddle of 18 to 21 inches and 110 lb at the seat. The panel also measures the bike at 33.5 inches long, 19.5 inches wide and 25.5 to 28 inches high, and carries ASTM and CPSC with CPSIA marks.

Where the height comes from

The photo panel marks the seat at 17.5 to 21.5 inches and the bars at 25.5 to 28 inches, while the size table on the same listing gives the seat as 18 to 21 inches. We publish the table figures, which are the more cautious pair.

The maker's size table figure. Their photo panel marks a slightly wider range, and we publish the narrower one.

Two and a half inches at the bars, adjusted separately from the saddle.

Published against the 12, 14 and 16 inch rows. Only the 18 inch is rated to 132 lb.

A white basket on the bars that lifts off, for the dolls, snacks and flowers the maker pictures in it.

Rubber outer, buffer layer, cord ply, inner tube and protective layer.

The maker's band for the 12 inch. The saddle floor is 18 inches, which is the number to check an inseam against.

The basket lifts off, so it can go when the bear stops coming along.

The bike is 33.5 inches long and 19.5 inches wide with the training wheels on, which is a published figure rather than a guess.

What we stand behind

• The suitable age, rider height, saddle height, handlebar height, overall size and 110 lb seat capacity here are the manufacturer's own published figures for the 12 inch.
• The manufacturer prints ASTM International and CPSC with CPSIA marks on their 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 size table gives the 12 inch saddle as 18 to 21 in while the adjustable height panel on the same listing marks it 17.5 to 21.5 in. The table figures are published here because they are the more cautious pair.
• 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. The maker publishes no inseam band for this range, so compare the child's inseam with the 18 inch saddle floor.

Why do the saddle figures differ?

The size table says 18 to 21 inches and the photo panel says 17.5 to 21.5. We publish the table figures, which are the more cautious pair.

Is the basket removable?

Yes, the maker calls it a removable storage basket.

Is the bike certified?

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