Bikes for Boys and Girls at Very
Getting them their first bike is always a memorable moment, so make it extra special with one from our great range of kids' bikes here at Very. From balance bikes for toddlers through to kids' 16 inch bikes, we have a bike for every budding cyclist. Stabiliser bikes featuring much-loved children's characters like Barbie and Hello Kitty will help young ones find their confidence while keeping them stable, and mountain bikes from brands such as Dawes and Squish will give older children a new sense of adventure on the weekends.
Choosing a Girls' or Boys' 16 Inch Bike
A cool design for a 16 inch bike is a good place to start, as they'll always want to be looking their best while eating up the cycling paths. Lightweight but strong aluminium or alloy frames mean no sudden cracks with the inevitable bunny-hops up kerbs. As an extra precaution, pick out a boys' or girls' 16 inch bike with either front or full suspension to absorb those unexpected shocks. Look for 6 to 18-speed Shimano gears for safe and smooth shifting, even when hurtling around at high speeds, and mechanical disc brakes for no drama stopping.
The Best First-time Bikes for Young Riders
From purple and green to pink and white, we have a wide variety of happy hues and colourful characters to add to the excitement of their first bike. A girl's bike with a pillion seat also means her favourite dolly can keep her company on her first outings. You can never be too safe with your little ones though, so smart precautions like puncture-proof wheels, soft-grip handlebars and covered chains will help ease your mind while they're having fun. When they've got the hang of it, simply detach the training wheels to move to the next stage.
