The Frog City 67 is a good bike to consider if your child cycles on roads and cycle paths in a town or city.

A city bike has a more upright riding position, step through frame and accessories such as kickstand, full length mudguards and pannier rack which make daily riding easier than with the hybrid style of most kids bikes.

The rear pannier rack can carry up to 25kg which should be more than enough for school books, sports kit, musical instruments etc.

The bike weighs in at 9.61kg without the accessories and 11.01kg once the mudguards, kickstand and rack are all added.

Subscribe to the Bike Club and get the bike for a low monthly cost. When it gets too small just upgrade it for a bigger Frog.

The Van Rysel Triban 100 26” road bike is designed for children aged 9-12, or 135-150 cm tall.

The aluminium frame and fork is paired with a mixed Shimano and Microshift 7-speed drivetrain, providing a decent enough range of gears for most road cycling, alongside dual Tektro brake levers. This means there are two sets: one on the top of the handlebar, and another integrated into the drop bar levers. This helps riders progress from flat bar riding to drop bar riding with confidence.

The skinny 25mm B’Twin Resist 5 tyres offer efficient rolling and stability, while the bike comes complete with battery-powered lights, a bell and wheel reflectors. It’s also compatible with mudguards, a rear rack and a bottle cage, which you can add separately. A great starter road bike if all they're interested in is riding on tarmac.

5 year warranty on frame and rear end, reduced to 3 years if not serviced once a year by an authorised Scott dealer

The Scott Ransom 600 is an excellent option for budding downhill or enduro racers, starting at 135cm in height. The custom butted alloy frame comes equipped with a 140mm X-Fusion Slant RC suspension fork, coupled with a 130mm X-Fusion rear shock, both fine tuned specifically for a child rider.

One of the key features of the Scott Ransom is its Flip Chip technology, which allows you to swap out the 26” wheels for 24” ones, meaning you’ll get a lot more use out of it as your child grows. It also makes a great option if there’s a younger sibling who’ll benefit from it once the elder one is done with it. It also boasts a Syncros Dropper Post and 2.4” Kenda Hellkat tyres, making this a fantastic premium option for the serious rider.

For the old-school mountain biking parents there’s a lot of love and nostalgia for rigid mountain bikes. Without the suspension they’ll be more in tune with the trail, and as a result they can learn some great handling skills to take into their cycling lives, both on-road and off. The Scott Scale 26 compensates for the lack of suspension with plush 2.4” tyres, so the ride will still be very comfortable. It also comes with 16-speed Shimano Tourney gearing and hydraulic disc brakes.

The Zinc Flyte is a 12” wheel balance bike with solid tyres, making it more suitable to indoor riding than outdoor, as well as a well-placed footrest for when they pick up speed.

While a lot of the 16 inch kids' bikes from Halfords are heavy and difficult to ride, the Carrera Cosmos 16 is a good example of an exception. It's built with a lightweight aluminium frame that makes it much easier for a child to control and handle. This focus on a lighter build means it's less of a struggle for them to learn and ride, which can make cycling a lot more fun and help them feel more confident.

With its 16-inch wheels, the bike is designed for a child who has already grasped the basics of riding and is ready for the next step. It's suited for riding on a variety of surfaces, from pavements to park trails. The V-brakes offer reliable stopping power, and the single-speed gear system keeps the mechanics simple and easy to maintain.

Overall, the Carrera Cosmos is a good, straightforward bike for a young rider ready to take on new challenges. Its design prioritises a solid, reliable build that is easier to ride than many heavier 16 inch kids bikes at Halfords.

The Btwin Rockrider 24 Expl 500 is an excellent entry-level mountain bike that offers great value for money and will perform well on the trails. Designed for children aged 9 to 12, it is a much more capable bike than others in its price range that may come with heavy full suspension and complicated gearing. It is a reliable option for families where budget is a priority, as Decathlon's in-house brand is known for durable and accessible bikes.

The bike focuses on the features that matter for this age group, with a simple yet effective 7-speed drivetrain and an Easytrigger shifter that is designed to be easy to operate. The sturdy steel frame and 50mm of front suspension are perfect for tackling mixed terrain like paths, trails, and gravel. It also comes with all-terrain lugged tires for good traction and control.

For parents, a great feature is the quick-release front wheel, which makes the bike easier to transport in the car. It's a bike that gives children a gentle introduction to off-road riding without being overly complicated or heavy. We are impressed with the quality of bikes in the BTWIN range, and this is a great option if you're looking for a good off-road bike that won't break the bank.

The Carrera Centos Hybrid 26 is a budget-friendly kids' bike that offers a grown-up look for older children. As a budget option, it is a good way to introduce your child to a multi-geared bike for riding on roads, paths, and light tracks. It comes equipped with a kickstand and V-brakes.

It is worth noting that this is a heavy bike, coming in at 18kg, which can be a challenge for a child to handle. The gear system features a double chainring with 14 gears, which can be overly complicated for a child new to changing gears.

For these reasons, if you're looking for a bike that is easier for your child to ride and enjoy, you might want to consider other options.
