Kids Bike

Wild Bikes are a good choice if you’re looking for a lightweight, modern looking kids bike but don’t have the budget for one of the really established names.

The Wild 14 features an upright riding position and a supportive saddle for your child to ensure they are comfortable whilst riding.

Wild Bikes have been popular with Cycle Sprog readers over the past few years as you’re getting a decently specified bike for a very good price.

The warranty is only for 12 months whereas some of the other bikes on this page come with 5 years, but these other bikes are also significantly more expensive, so you should take that into consideration.

The Frog 47 is a brand new bike for 2022. We think this single speed, easy to ride bike is going to be popular with children who are too tall for a standard 16″ wheel pedal bike, but don’t have the ability yet to move onto a bike with gears.

The Frog 47 has a minimum inside leg of 47cm and comes with all the features you’d expect from one of the best known premium kids bike brands.  This includes a lightweight aluminium frame, grippy tyres and child proportioned components.

We’ve not reviewed this particular Frog bike but we have reviewed a number of other sizes and they’ve all been great, long lasting and fun to ride.  [sc name="bike-club-frog-bikes" ][/sc]  [sc name="bike-club-18-inch-deal" ][/sc]

Frog had a revamp of their 20″ wheel bike range, and the Frog 53 was the brand new model for 2022 that replaced the old Frog 52 and Frog 55.

Instead of having to worry about which size to buy, this new model is designed to start small and has room for growth.

For most children this will be their first time using gears on a bike, and you want it to be as easy as possible.

The Frog 53 has 8 speeds which are accessed using an easy reach thumb shifter.

The range of gears is good enough to get up most hills, and if it does get a bit too steep the bike is lightweight enough to hopefully allow your child to keep on pushing (although we can’t promise this – and if you do end up carrying it you’ll be pleased that it only weighs 8.15kg)

We reviewed one of the very first Frog 20″ wheel bikes  to be released years ago, and were very impressed by the comfort of the ride, quality of the bike and it’s longevity.

Since then Frog have continued to improve on the specification,  and we see no reason why the new Frog 53 won’t continue in that tradition, making it a great choice 20″ wheel geared bike. [sc name="bike-club-frog-bikes" ][/sc]

The Frog 55 was Frog Bike’s original 20″ wheel bike, which was discontinued at the end of 2021, to be replaced by the new Frog 53

The Frog 55 is a good all round bike that’s equally suited to riding trails and paths as doing the school run.  Original bikes got mudguards supplied as standard, and you can also fit a pannier rack if you’re carrying school books or camping equipment. 

For most children this will be their first experience of using gears on a bike, and Frog specified an easy to use 8 speed set up with an easy reach thumb shifter.
