YOMO 26
The YOMO 26 is a premium lightweight bike that makes the jump to a larger size easy and fun for your child. It’s an excellent choice for kids looking to tackle varied terrain and longer rides.
This bike stands out with its Tektro disc brakes, which are a premium feature not found on cheaper kids bikes. These provide reliable stopping power in all conditions and are easy for smaller hands to operate, giving your child more confidence and control on the bike.
With an aluminium frame and quality components, the YOMO 26 weighs just 9.9 kg, which is significantly lighter than many bikes of this size.
This makes it much easier for your child to handle and manoeuvre, whether they are on roads, paths or trails.
We have been impressed by the quality of the smaller bikes in the range and we’re confident the YOMO 26 is a great choice. You can read our review of the YOMO 24 to find out more about the brand.

YOMO 16
The YOMO 16 is a great choice bike if you’re looking for something a little bit different for your child. The brand only launched in winter 2023, so there’s not many of these bikes around, so they’re bound to get people talking.
YOMO is the brainchild of a dad of two who has worked for years in the kids bike industry, which you can tell from the attention to detail on the specification.
We’ve been sent a larger geared bike to review and we’ve been very impressed, and reckon this bike will get your child smiling and pedalling in no time!
They’re also doing a stylish range of kids cycle helmets with a choice of both matt and glossy finish.
We’ve not reviewed this particular bike, but you can probably tell from the title of our review of it’s smaller sibling that we’re very impressed with these bikes! YOMO 14 Review: Is this the perfect first pedal bike?
