Even the littlest ones deserve the same amount of fun and comfort as adult cyclists. Our children's bikes are specially designed to meet the needs of young adventurers.
Een lichte kinderfiets is een fijnere kinderfiets. Maar ook de details doen er toe. Het stuur van de lichtgewicht Numove 200 heeft daarom een kleinere diameter voor een beter houvast, terwijl de V-brakes zijn voorzien van kleinere remhendels die passen bij kinderhanden. De stuurpen is verstelbaar, zodat de zitpositie met het kind meegroeit. Verder heeft de fiets een Shimano 8-speed transmissie en lichte wielen met gripvaste banden. Dit is een kleinere, lichtere versie van de fiets van papa en mama – daar worden kinderen blij van!
Leren fietsen is een essentieel onderdeel van opgroeien. En een lichte fiets maakt dat een stuk gemakkelijker. Bij het ontwerpen van de Numove 140 hebben we daarom vooral gelet op een zo laag mogelijk gewicht, zonder in te leveren op stevigheid – een kinderfiets moet immers tegen een stootje kunnen. Ook de onderdelen zijn daarop geselecteerd. Zoals de Thun-trapas, een CUBE-stuurpen en lichte wielen met smalle banden. De V-brakes zijn voorzien van kleinere remgrepen en dunnere handvatten, speciaal voor kleine kinderhanden. Aan veiligheid is uiteraard ook gedacht: alle hoeken zijn afgerond en de ketting zit netjes in een kettingkast.
Fietsen leren hoort erbij en een lichte fiets maakt dat leerproces een beetje makkelijker. Bij het ontwikkelen van de Numove 160 was het realiseren van een zo laag mogelijk gewicht daarom een belangrijk uitgangspunt. Maar zonder in te boeten op sterkte, want een kinderfiets moet wel tegen een stootje kunnen. Ook de onderdelen zijn geselecteerd op een laag gewicht en een hoge sterkte. Voor en achter vind je praktische V-brakes, met kleinere remgrepen en dunnere handvatten, speciaal voor kleinere handen. Maar ook de veiligheid zijn we niet vergeten: alle hoeken zijn afgerond en de ketting zit netjes in een kettingkast.
Jonge fietsers verdienen een fiets die net zo goed is als die van papa en mama. Daarom is het aluminium frame en de voorvork van de Numove 120 speciaal ontworpen om zo licht mogelijk te zijn, zonder in te leveren op stevigheid. Het blijft immers een kinderfiets en moet tegen een stootje kunnen. Ook de onderdelen zijn daarop uitgezocht. Zo heeft de fiets een terugtraprem achter en een velgrem met kleinere remgreep voor, aangepast voor kleine handen. Aan veiligheid is eveneens gedacht: alle hoeken zijn afgerond en de ketting zit achter een kettingscherm.
Okay, bikes zijn nooit bedacht om mee te vliegen. Maar het kán natuurlijk wel. Althans, voor wie op een Flying Circus 240 rijdt. Deze mini-dirtbike voelt zich net zo thuis op de kickerline als op een pumptrack. Met een solide RST Snyper-voorvork op de klappen op te vangen. De Billy Bonkers-banden van Schwalbe kunnen overigens ook wel een stootje hebben. Met z’n Clarks-schijfremmen en singlespeed set-up heb je alles dat je nodig hebt.
Our range of children's bikes includes different inch sizes, so you can find the perfect fit of the children's bike for your growing child.

Safety comes first with our children's bicycles
Safety is our top priority, which is why our children's bikes and toddler bikes are equipped with top-quality brakes, including disc brakes on some models. For the littlest ones, there is a coaster brake on the children's bike . This allows children to stop easily and safely with the brake, regardless of the road conditions. The light and durable aluminum frame of our children's bikes (also called alu) ensures a stable and agile ride, while the rims of our high-quality children's bikes ensure the safety of your child. Many of our children's bikes are also equipped with gears.
Children's bikes and toddler bikes for fun and adventure
At CUBE we understand that children's bikes are not just about practicality, but also about fun and adventure. Our children's bikes come in a variety of colours and styles, so your child can choose the children's bike that best suits their personality. Our children's bikes are suitable for both boys and girls. They can therefore be used as both boys' and girls' bikes.

At CUBE we understand that kids bikes aren't just about practicality, they're also about fun and adventure.
Tips for buying a children's bike or toddler bike
When buying a children's bike , make sure you buy a bike that is the right size. Your child should be able to get on and off without any problems in order to easily go out.
A child's bike that is too big can lead to dangerous situations. Your child will not be able to get off or brake easily, because their feet cannot reach the ground. So pay close attention to this when buying a child's bike. Let your child get used to learning to ride a bike without training wheels at their own pace, by building up from a balance bike to a real bike!
What size children's bicycle does my child need?
Children grow fast. That's why it's important to buy the right size bike for kids or bike for toddlers. Use the tool on the bike page to determine the bike size for your child.
Children's bicycle size - look at the clothing size
The age of your child does not always give a good picture, because one child can be taller than another child of the same age. The height and clothing size of your child are in most cases decisive in choosing a certain children's bike.
Sizes of children's bicycles are indicated in inches; this is the wheel size. Think for example of 18 inch, 16 inch or 12 inch children's bicycles.
A safe children's bicycle for your child
Some children grow very quickly. That is why it is important to regularly check whether your child's bike is still properly adjusted. Make sure that the handlebars and saddle are set to the correct height. The legs should not be completely stretched while pedaling and your child should be able to put his or her foot on the ground without stepping off the saddle.
Saddle height and legroom on children's bicycles
For optimal cycling fun, it is essential that the saddle of the children's bike is at the right height. With balance bikes and also with the first bike with chain drive, children should be able to easily reach the ground with their feet. This helps them when they roll their first meters on two wheels. As soon as your child can roll confidently, the saddle can be placed a little higher. But not too high, the child should preferably be able to reach the ground with the balls of his feet. The free space between the crotch and the bar of the bike depends on the leg length of your child and the shape of the frame. The lower the bar (= top tube), the more space. We recommend at least 3 to 5 centimeters of play space between the top of the bar and the bottom of the crotch. Or in other words: the top tube should be 3 to 5 centimeters shorter than the inside leg length of your child.
Bending the knee on children's bicycles
The bending of the knees is determined by the height of the saddle. This means that a low saddle position - such as with balance and learning bikes where the feet must be able to easily reach the ground - requires a stronger bending of the knees. Children who already have a lot of self-confidence on the bike can better place the saddle higher, preferably so high that the leg is almost fully extended while pedaling. This allows more power to be exerted and reduces fatigue. If your child's knees almost touch the elbows when cycling upright, then it is time for a larger type of children's bike.
Position of the foot on a children's bicycle
As we have already indicated above, children who are learning to ride a bike should be able to reach the ground with their feet. However, once they are able to ride a bike, it is better if they only touch the ground with the balls of their feet. For an effective pedaling movement, the ball of the foot should also lie flat on the pedal of the child's bike.
CUBE Children's bicycle inch sizes
At CUBE you can find inch sizes 12, 16, 18, 20, 24 and 26. Some CUBE children's bicycles are indicated in sizes XXS, XS or S.
Children's bicycle according to wishes for every child
When your son or daughter starts cycling, a child's bike with training wheels can be a solution. With training wheels, you can determine how quickly your child learns to cycle. This is how it works: the higher you set the training wheels, the more balance your child has to maintain. If you notice that your child no longer needs training wheels, then the real work can begin.
