Trek Kids Bikes
What is it about Trek's kids bike that make them stand out from the others?
Well the great thing is that it is not just one thing, it's a whole range!
Trek have worked really hard with lots of kids over the years to see what is important to them. They have also considered safety and strength.
Strength
Kids are never 'kind' to their bikes, so their bikes should be built to handle the toughest of treatments. More often then not, when parents are upgrading their child's bike, they tell us there is nothing wrong with their existing bike, they have just had it for years and they are ready for the next size.
Growth
When Trek builds a kids bike, they don't just shrink a frame. Trek has taken the time to see what works and what doesn't with many kids to ensure that the bike will work for them. Trek introduced Dialed Specific Design to allow adjustments on a bike as a child grows.
Some of the adjustments include:
- Seat height and position
- Handlebar reach – for safety and comfort
- Crank length (on some models)
Safety
They also scale specific items to ensure they are well suited to your child.
These scaled features includes:
- Smaller pedals
- Adjusted gearing ratios
- Handlebar width
- Thinner grips on the handlebar
- Shorter reach brake leavers
Add of of this up, and you will see why a Trek kids bike is the next bike for your child. Trek have a range of kids bikes starting at the Jet 12 for the boys and the Mystic 12 for the girls from about 3 years of age, right up to the MT 220, a full featured mountain bike with some scaled features for the adventurous one in your family.
