Bikes for children and young riders
Getting kids on bikes early is one of the best gifts you can give them. We've gathered the best kids bikes from balance bikes for toddlers to proper geared bikes for older kids.
The key to a good kids bike? Lightweight, properly sized, and quality components. Heavy, poorly-made bikes are harder to ride and less fun – which means less riding.
Balance bikes (no pedals) are brilliant for learning. Once they've got the hang of balancing, they'll pick up pedalling in no time. For older kids, look for brands like Frog, Islabikes, and Cube that take kids bikes seriously.
Kids bikes get handed down, crashed, and outgrown. Laka covers the whole family – add multiple bikes to one policy and save.
