The bike

A low profile carbon steel frame in pink with teal accents, a woven basket on the bars, a doll seat behind the saddle, a PU saddle and two detachable training wheels.

The maker's size table

The 18 inch row gives ages 5 to 9, a 110 lb capacity, a saddle of 23.5 to 27 inches and a handlebar of 31.5 to 34 inches. The panel also measures the bike at 49.5 inches long and 21.5 inches wide. The rider height column for this size is printed backwards, so we publish none.

The doll seat has a belt

A moulded seat behind the rider with a safety belt across it, which is what keeps the passenger aboard over a kerb. The maker photographs the belt on its own so you can see it exists.

A PU seat that lifts and drops without a tool.

Two and a half inches at the bars. The written text says 31 inches at the bottom and the chart says 31.5, so we publish 31.5.

The maker prints the same figure for the 14 and the 18 inch.

Behind the rider, with a strap, plus a woven basket with a bowknot on the bars.

Front, rear and in the wheels, along with a bell.

If another Canadian retailer lists this pink 18 inch for less, send us the link and we will match it.

The published rider height for this size is unusable, so the 23.5 inch saddle floor is the number to measure against.

The doll seat has a belt, which is the difference between a passenger that stays and one that gets left behind.

The maker states 95 percent pre-assembled, so the front wheel, bars and pedals are the job.

What we stand behind

• The suitable age, saddle height, handlebar height, overall size and 110 lb capacity here are the manufacturer's own published figures for the 18 inch.
• No helmet is included. A helmet belongs on every ride, and eight Canadian provinces have helmet legislation, three of them for riders under 18.
• This is a bike for supervised riding on paths, driveways and parks, never on a road.
• The rider height for the 18 inch is printed as 4.59 to 4.27 FT, a range that runs backwards. No rider height is published here because of it. Use the 23.5 inch saddle floor against the child's inseam instead.
• The written specification gives the handlebar as 31 to 34 in and the size chart as 31.5 to 34 in. The chart figures are published here.
• No safety certification mark appears on this listing, so we claim none.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.

What size child is it for?

The maker says 5 to 9 years. Their rider height figure for this size is printed backwards, so measure the child's inseam against the 23.5 inch saddle floor instead.

Does the doll seat have a belt?

Yes, the maker photographs a safety belt across it.

What brakes are fitted?

A front hand brake and a rear coaster brake, with the chain fully enclosed.

How much assembly is there?

The maker states 95 percent pre-assembled.
