18 Inch Kids Bike with Detachable Basket and Removable Training Wheels, Pink

This bike publishes a saddle range and a frame weight limit and stops there. There is no suitable age, no rider height band and no inseam guidance anywhere on it, which is exactly the information a parent needs most.

The lowest saddle setting is 24.5 inches. Stand the child against a wall in socks and measure crotch to floor. If that number is at or above 24.5 inches they can put both feet flat at the bottom of the range. If it is below, this bike is too big whatever the box says, and no amount of adjustment will fix it.

The bike

A carbon steel frame in pale pink with a detachable basket on the bars, a padded cream saddle, a splash guard over the rear wheel and two removable training wheels.

Every measurement they publish

The panel gives the bike as 50 inches long, 32 to 33 inches high and 20.5 inches across the bars, with the seat between 24 and 29 inches and the basket measured beside it. There is no rider height or inseam anywhere on this listing.

How far the seat moves

A knob sets the saddle height, and the maker prints the range as 24.5 to 29.5 inches in their text and 24 to 29 inches on the panel. We publish 24.5 to 29, which is the cautious reading of both.

Set by a knob rather than a tool. The maker's two published ranges differ slightly and this is the cautious reading of both.

An inch at the bars, on a fast release device.

The maker says the carbon steel frame supports up to 110 lb.

The maker calls the basket detachable and the auxiliary wheels removable, so the bike can be stripped back as the child improves.

A guard over the rear wheel to keep muddy water off clothes, plus a reflector for dim light.

The maker publishes no rider height or inseam band for this bike, so the 24.5 inch saddle floor is the number to measure against.

The maker frames the auxiliary wheels as a triangle that stops the bike rolling over, and they come off when the balance arrives.

The splash guard over the rear wheel is what keeps a puddle from ending up on the back of a coat.

What we stand behind

• The saddle height, handlebar height, overall size and 110 lb frame support here are the manufacturer's own published figures.
• The manufacturer shows an ASTM certification badge 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.
• The written description gives the seat range as 24.5 to 29.5 in while the size panel marks it 24 to 29 in. We publish 24.5 in as the lowest setting and 29 in as the highest, which is the cautious reading of both.
• No rider height, inseam band or suitable age is published for this bike, so none is stated. Measure the child's inseam against the 24.5 inch saddle floor.
• Ships from our Canadian or United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.

What size child does it fit?

The maker publishes no rider height, inseam band or age. Measure the child's inseam and compare it with the 24.5 inch saddle floor.

What brakes are fitted?

A front caliper brake and a rear brake. There is no coaster brake listed.

Can the basket come off?

Yes, the maker calls it detachable, and the training wheels are removable too.

Is the bike certified?

The gallery carries an ASTM certification badge. No certificate number is published, so we quote none.
