Kids Bike

Boardman Bikes have been, until very recently, an adult  bike brand.  In Winter 2022 they launched a range of kids bike, and the Jnr 26″ is the largest flat bar bike in the range.

They say it’s “a premium adult bike, just in a smaller size” and the lightweight aluminium frame comes equipped with cable disc brakes.  There’s mounting points for a rear rack and front and rear mudguards so you can tailor to the type of riding you’re doing.

The Frog City 53 is a good choice if your child is riding mainly on roads or paved cycle paths for commuting or gentle leisure cycling.

The upright riding position, step through frame and accessories such as kickstand, full length mudguards and pannier rack make travelling by bike easy.

The rear pannier rack can hold up to 25kg to transport bags and equipment when out and about.

The bike weighs in at 8.45kg without the accessories and 9.71kg once the mudguards, kickstand and rack are all added. 

The Frog City 61 is worth considering if your child rides on roads and cycle paths for commuting or gentle leisure cycling.

The bike has an upright riding position, step through frame and accessories such as kickstand, full length mudguards and pannier rack which make daily riding easier.

The step-through aluminium frame makes mounting and dismounting the bike easier – useful if you’re wearing a skirt or tight trousers.

The rear pannier rack has a maximum load of 25kg which should be more than adequate for school books, musical instruments etc.

The bike weighs in at 9.17kg without the accessories and 10.49kg once the mudguards, kickstand and rack are all added.

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.
