Kids Christmas Bike Buying Guide

Kids Christmas Bike Buying Guide

It feels like we are all more excited than ever for the upcoming festive season and warmer weather. What better way to celebrate this Christmas and make the most of the outdoors this summer than with a brand new bike for your little one?

So, the big question is which bike to choose? Well, we have a whole range of kids bikes in different styles, colours and sizes, so there is something for everyone. But to give you some help narrowing it down, here is our guide to choosing the perfect bike for your little one this Christmas.

TIP: Due to ongoing COVID-related disruptions, Reid Cycles (and nearly every other retailer in the world) is dealing with supply chain uncertainty this Christmas. Our strong recommendation is that if you want to get a bike before Christmas – please order early this year.



Christmas Gift Guide 2021 - Kids Edition

Unsure on sizing? Check out our Kids Bike Sizing Guide .


The Stylish One:

Our most popular kid's bikes are our Kids Vintage bikes. These come in the Girls Classic 16", Girls Classic 20" and the Boys Classic 16" . These bikes are built just like our grown-up bikes, with reliable, high-quality components in a classic vintage style. A great perk of this is that you can have matching Adult Vintage bikes with your little one – how cute! Plus, it makes the perfect excuse for you to get yourself a new ride too!


The Adventurous One:

Our Scout 20" and Scout 24" Kids Mountain bikes are built tough to deliver huge fun for little riders! Reid knows kids are the roughest test riders on the planet - so these bikes are built with quality alloy parts, designed to withstand years of being left in the rain, taken over jumps and ridden through the muddiest of creeks.


The All-Rounder:

Want a bike for your little one that is great for riding around the neighbourhood, but also perfect for their next adventure? The Viper has you covered; available in 20" and 24", it's a lightweight all-rounder kids bike, made for confidence inspiring control and a whole lot of fun when tearing through the streets.


The 'not so little' little one:

Is your little one not so little anymore? But not quite ready for an standard adult-sized bike? Depending on their style/need, we still have some great options. Our Ladies Vintage Petite is perfect for those still wanting that Vintage style. Looking for something a bit tougher? Our size Small in the MTB Sport range is perfect for those 150cm-160cm.




With bikes selling extra fast this year, if you are thinking about a new bike as a Christmas present, make sure you get in quick to make sure you can get it in time for the special day.


Happy Riding and Christmas Shopping,

The Reid Cycles Team
