Correct Size For A Child
Hi. I am new here and this is my first post. I was directed here by a friend who advised that you may be able to help me get the correct bike for my daughter.
She is just about to turn 5.
Is not very confident on a bike and still requires stabilisers.
She is 117cm tall
Inside leg measurement (crotch to floor) is 50cm
We bought a brand new bike with 16" wheels for her at Christmas and she has already outgrown it.
As she is not very confident, and is growing so quickly, we do not want to get a bike with gears or one that is too large for her to manage at the moment.
Riding will be on roads/gravel tracks, mostly flat.
I have been looking at bikes with 18" wheels. Do I go just on wheel size or do I need a specific frame size?
Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much
