Why is the recommended bike size different than another bike my child has tried?Updated 17 days ago

All bikes have a different geometry. If you tried a bike at Walmart, Target, or a bike store with the same wheel size as our bikes, it wouldn't fit the same as a Guardian Bike. 

That’s because bike geometry (the way a bike is designed and built) makes a huge difference in how it feels to ride.

Guardian Bikes are designed with:

  • An extended wheelbase – for smoother, more stable riding

  • A lower center of gravity – to make balancing easier and give kids more confidence

The result? A bike that’s easier to control, safer to ride, and way more fun for your child.
