Raleigh Kids Bikes

Once kids get to a certain age it is a rite of passage for them to learn to ride a bike. From a young age they will have experimented with ride ons and trikes, and may have even already had their first proper bike, with stabilisers attached to keep them safe and stable, but when it comes to riding a real bike without stabilisers, kids will want a great bike to push them that bit further.

Raleigh Kids Bikes are some of the best bikes out there for slightly older children who are ready to start riding a bike for real, as they all look much more grown up and have an element of cool about them which mean kids will feel able to show them off to their friends, and be proud of their bike when they head to the park or out for the day in a group. Raleigh bikes are designed to look great, and handle even better, as they make riding on rough terrains easy, and take hills and bumps in the road much easier. For this reason, if your child is learning to ride a bike for the first time, choosing a Raleigh bike may be the best way to get them started.

You could choose something simple but cool looking, like the Hot Rod 20 or the Striker bike, which have edgy colour schemes and simple but streamlined designs that will make staying on when your child is first learning that much easier. There are girlier bikes that girls will be proud of and love to ride around, such as Krush or Nightshade, one in a pastel pink and the other in a slightly more mature two-tone purple. All of these bikes have adjustable seats to suit your child as they grow, and come with handlebars set at just the right level to make your child feel secure and also able to reach and hold the brakes when necessary.

if you are looking for something a little bit more unusual so that your child can stand out from the crowd, the Chopper would be a very cool bike for younger children. Designed in the classic chopper style, the bike has a slightly lower-set seat to make it easier for smaller children to ride around, and give kids more security when first learning. The chopper is also great looking and will be instantly noticeable in a crowd if your child heads off on their own during a day out or in the park.

Once you have found the perfect bike for your child, try to take them out on it as much as possible and encourage them not to give up while they are learning. Help them by holding onto the bike as they ride and always making sure they have plenty of time and space to learn on their own and you should soon find that they are a pro when it comes to riding their bike - and list it as one of their favourite activities!
