Just windering if this bike would be too big for a 5" kid.
Answer
I suppose you mean 5 foot, not 5"(inches)?
This would be about age 10 to 14, yes a 20" bmx would be OK.

Looking for a quality bike for my beyond wonderful, eight year old niece moving up from a twenty inch bike?
Joseph G
I need advice on purchasing a quality bike for an eight year old girl.One who loves to ride. She is moving up from her twenty inch bike. Any suggestions on twenty-four inch wheel bikeshop bike that is under $180? Or on a department store/sporting goods store bike that is of the same quality as bike shop bike.Would prefer the cruiser type bike to the mountain bike type, but quality level and reliabilty are most important factors.Thanks for the help!
Answer
Excellent opportunity to buy a lightly used bike. Kids don't normally fit this size bike for more than 2 years. By the time they turn 10-11 yrs old, they will be in a 26 inch wheeled bike (unless they are short). With your budget, you will get a better bike too. A decent bike shop quality bike will be over 200US.
Regarding the first answer being too young for a 24? My boys were on very comfortably on 24" wheels at 7 yrs old. They looked like circus clowns on toy bikes when they tried to ride 20" wheeled bikes at that age (other than BMX).....but I would agree that a fitting would be in order, or at least go shopping with the kids height/proportions at hand so you know what to get.
