Review on BELSIZE 20-Inch Lightweight Aluminium Alloy Kids Bike: Ultra-Light (14.82 lbs) 7-10 Years Old Bicycle by Dang Esq

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you want your kids to love riding, this is the bike.

This bike is exactly as advertised. With relatively little effort, you can assemble this bike (using the tools provided) in about fifteen minutes. The components are the quality you would expect for the price. A few moments of brake adjustment and the wheels spin freely and quickly. As a parent of younger children, I will champion choice here. I love to ride. I rode mountain bikes with my family, raced in college, and can still be seen riding my old Cannondale from time to time. I wanted my kids to love bikes too. For young children it should work, work well and just be fun. This is the bike you need. After all, belt drive is the biggest improvement in kids' cycling since the balance bike (say no to training wheels—really, just say no). No greasing, no falling chain, just get in and ride. The biggest plus is that this bike is almost five pounds lighter than its nearest similarly priced competitor. That's over ten pounds lighter than your average cheap 20-inch car. For reference, the average 6-year-old only weighs 45-50 pounds. That's a huge percentage of their body weight. It makes a big difference how far, how fast and how long a child can ride before they tire. If you want them on the bike, make it easy and fun. One last thing before I look up from my soapbox: We've had this bike (A11N 20") for about a week. I've included a photo of the 16" A11N Belsize still hanging in the garage. These two bikes have been through pretty much everything a kid can go through on a bike and they still roll as fast as they did when I had them. Buy a bike that your kids will want to ride. This is the bike you need.
