Choosing the right bike size for your child is crucial for safety, comfort and riding enjoyment.
The wrong size can make riding more difficult and increase the risk of injury.
To help you find the perfect bike for your child, we have put together an overview of the most common sizes along with body height and stride length:
| Inches | Recommended height | Recommended stride length |
|---|---|---|
| 12 Zoll | 85-100 cm | 30-45 cm |
| 14 Zoll | 95-110 cm | 40-50 cm |
| 16 Zoll | 95-115 cm | 40-50 cm |
| 18 Zoll | 105-120 cm | 45-55 cm |

Measure stride length: Measure your child's stride length (from the ground to the crotch). Stride length is a better indicator than age, as it can vary from person to person.
Leg muscles and riding behavior: If your child is not yet a confident rider, choose a bike where they can place both feet flat on the ground to ensure safety.
