x14 Inch Kids Bike with Adjustable Handlebar and Seat for Ages 3 to 5, Light Blue
Both ends adjust: the saddle through 20 to 24 inches and the bars through 26 to 28.5 inches, so the riding position stays upright as a child stretches. The maker's chart gives ages 3 to 5, a rider height of 37.5 to 43.5 inches, an inseam of 18.5 to 22.5 inches and a 99 lb seat capacity.

Raising the seat and leaving the bars where they were
A stretched out riding position
Most families move the saddle up as the child grows and never touch the handlebar. The rider ends up reaching down and forward, which makes steering heavy and the brake lever harder to pull.
Move both, a little at a time
The bars on this one travel 26 to 28.5 inches alongside the 20 to 24 inch saddle. Raise them together and the child stays upright, with the lever still under their fingers.
How it is put together
Pale blue on a carbon steel step-through frame with brown grips and a brown padded saddle. The white basket clips on and off the bars, and training wheels are fitted at the back.
The fitting table
For the 14 inch the maker gives ages 3 to 5, a rider height of 37.5 to 43.5 inches, an inseam of 18.5 to 22.5 inches, a saddle of 20 to 24 inches and a 99 lb seat capacity.
Four inches of growing room
Saddle and bars both move. The rule of thumb is to keep the saddle near the child's inseam while they are learning, then let it rise an inch or two above once they are riding confidently.
Two brakes and a boxed chain
A front hand brake with a short lever pull and a rear coaster brake that bites on a back pedal. The chain is enclosed along its whole run, which keeps trouser legs out of it.
What is on this bike
Saddle 20 to 24 in
Set it low while they learn, then raise it as the legs catch up.
Handlebar 26 to 28.5 in
Two and a half inches of bar height, so the reach can move with the seat.
Removable training wheels
Bolted to the rear axle and off with a spanner when balance arrives.
Hand and coaster brakes
A lever at the front and a back pedal brake at the rear.
Removable basket
Clips to the bars and lifts off when it is in the way.
95 percent pre-assembled
Bars, pedals, basket, bell and training wheels are what is left to fit.

Who is this perfect for?
Riders 37.5 to 43.5 inches tall
The maker's band for a 14 inch wheel. Height is a fairer test than age.
Families who adjust as they go
Both saddle and bars move, so the bike can be re-set every few months rather than replaced.
First time pedallers
Training wheels are included, and they come off the moment they stop being useful.
What we stand behind
- The age band, rider height, inseam, saddle height, handlebar height and 99 lb seat limit are the manufacturer's own published figures.
- The maker shows ASTM and CPSC or CPSIA marks on its own product panel. That is their claim, repeated as such, with no certificate number.
- No helmet is included. A helmet belongs on every ride, and eight Canadian provinces have helmet legislation, three of them for riders under 18.
- This is a bike for supervised riding on paths, driveways and parks, never on a road.
- Ships from our Canadian or United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
Frequently asked questions
What size child fits a 14 inch?
The maker lists ages 3 to 5, a rider height of 37.5 to 43.5 inches and an inseam of 18.5 to 22.5 inches. Measure the inseam and compare it with the 20 inch bottom of the saddle range.
Can the handlebar be raised as well as the seat?
Yes. The bars move through 26 to 28.5 inches. Raising both together keeps the rider upright instead of stretched forward.
Is it safe without a helmet?
No bike is. A helmet belongs on every ride. Eight Canadian provinces have helmet legislation and three of those apply it to riders under 18.
Is it certified?
The maker shows ASTM and CPSC or CPSIA marks on its own product panel. We pass that on as their statement and quote no certificate number.
What is in the box?
The bike 95 percent built, plus the handlebar, pedals, basket, bell and training wheels to fit, with tools and an instruction sheet.
