We normally wouldn't recommend a 16" wheel kids bike this heavy (9.5kg) but the Puky Steel 16 is an exception to the rule.

The very low step-through frame makes this a bicycle worth considering if your child has mobility issues that mean they can't swing their leg over the crossbar of the majority of kids bikes.

Also, Puky are a renowned German kids bike company, so whilst you're getting a quite heavy steel frame, this bike is equipped with much better quality components than the vast majority of cheaper heavy steel framed kids bikes with 16" wheels.

Plus the Puky Steel 16 has Puky's own impact-resistant paint, meaning the bike will continue to look good, even in the hands of a rough child!
