The Frog First Pedal 55 is an ideal 20" wheeled bike for 5 to 6 year olds with an average inside leg of 55cm. This is the Union Jack graphics and blue gloss colour version with 8 speeds.
One of the biggest temptations is to buy a bike your child will 'grow into'. However, this is likely to have the opposite effect and put your child off bikes and cycling altogether! Another common mistake is to purchase a budget bike but these models are often as heavy as the child and leads to frustration at not being able to cycle.
This is a 20" wheel model, featuring hybrid tyres for on and off road use. The 8 speeds offer easy to select gears adding yet more versatility to this bike.
Frogs lightweight bikes are a great confidence booster and when they are pedalling Frogs patented bicycle cranks make pedalling easier.
Available colours: Green, Orange, Pink, Purple. Red, Spotty, Team Sky, Union Jack, USA
