Specialized Riprock Coaster 16 Kids Bike 2018
For kids who like to explore and take their riding up a step, the Specialized Riprock Coaster 16 Kids Bike is the ideal choice. The bike uses an A1 Premium Aluminium frame and pairs it with kid's specific Specialized components, including a Kids' saddle and handlebars.
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 slightly 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.
Features
- The premium A1 aluminium frame is lightweight and built to withstand the tough use by kids, while the geometry features an ultra-low standover that makes it easy for your little ones to fit on and grow with the bike.
- 16x2.3" Specialized Rhythm Lite tyres deliver tons of traction, comfort, stability, and fun over all types of terrain.
- A steel coaster brake is a reliable, easy to use brake perfect for safe stops.
