Specialized Hotrock 16 Girls Coaster Bike 2017
Keep your little speedster progressing with her cycling adventures on the Specialized Hotrock 16 Girls Coaster Bike 2017, the perfect follow on from the 12-incher.
This bike will certainly grab her attention in the exciting colour scheme. Most importantly though if your child likes the colour of the bike, they are far more likely to use it. For this year, you do not even have to get her a patronisingly pink bike as this beautifully coloured bike is feminine without going over the top.
When choosing a kids bike there are a number of variables to consider. From a size point of view kids bike sizing is based on wheel size. You want your child to be in control and be able to enjoy the bike to its full potential, so a correctly sized bike is a must.
It is easy to think the child will grow into the bike, but a bike to big will be dangerous, difficult to handle and less enjoyable to ride. What type of bike is the next decision.
For the slighter older, taller child, a 16 or 18 inch wheeled bike is a good choice. This offers a faster, smoother ride and is perfect for children around the ages of 5 to 6, who are 0.96 metres to 1.10 metres in height.
