jessika t


my son is two and very small for his age his inner leg measures 11in or 28 1/2 cm he weight is 23 lbs i was wondering if i should buy a 10in or a 12in he wont be riding it till this summer really but i don't want him to get hurt if it is two big.. i have gotten on several web sites and none show a leg length as small as his one site said 14-17in is a 12in bike age 2-3 but he only has a 11in measurement so please help...
im not sure still i think i might get the 12in the size chart you gave me did help some but not alot he is only 27in tall so he is bearly 2 ft tall let along the 2 10 the site said that a 2 year old is but it help me realize i need to try him on it before ordering so online orders are out i was hoping to get it online but guess not thank you all for your help



Answer
Link below to a sizing "guideline". This is only a guideline - not fact. I don't care if it's a child or an adult...there's only one true way to tell ahead of time. TRY B4 you BUY!

To quote from the website..."This guide gives our customers general advice on choosing the right sized bike. It is a guide only and we always recommend visiting one of our stores or contacting one of the experts in our sales team."

Kids Bikes?

Want to buy my nephew a new bike for his birthday. He will be turning 4. What should I look for? I know he needs trainning wheels, but don't know what size to look for.


Answer
If he's small or average for his age he will need a 12" bike. If on the larger side maybe a 16". Both normally come with training wheels. Best thing is to head over to Wal Mart, Target, Toy r Us etc. and see how they fit. If it's a surprise you can always buy one and take it back if not right. Make sure to not get something he will grow out of by fall.

I would not take a 4 yo to a bike shop - most don't even carry kiddie bikes anyway.
