When choosing a bicycle for a child, paying little attention to a bright design is much more important than the quality of the product. Safety and reliability depend on the type of structure designed for a cyclist of a particular age. Thus, effective and attractive children's models are offered by the Jaguar company.
Features
Production is organized in Taiwan. Children's copies are produced using high quality metal - the only way to achieve a reliable and durable result. Use of one copy is possible for more than 10 years. I.e The Jaguar bike will become the vehicle for younger and older siblings in the family.
If the model is designed for a child under 5 years old, then it has a convenient parental handle, thanks to which mom or dad will be able to control the actions of the young rider. Subsequently, having mastered riding a children's bicycle, the child will learn to ride a teenage or adult model without any problems.
Children are also attracted to the baskets with which Jaguar children's bicycles are equipped - they can transport your favorite toys. To protect from the sun, a visor is provided, and most of all children like the bright design of bicycles.
Varieties
You can classify Jaguar children's models by age. There are models designed for babies from 9 months to two years. These 3-wheeled options are more likely a complete replacement for a wheelchair than a full-fledged bike. Although already at this age, the child will be able to get used to landing and catch the principle of the mechanism, which will come in handy in the future when riding a larger copy.
And also in the lineup presents options for children 1.5-5 years. These versions have the ability to adjust the saddle in height, because the baby at this age is growing very quickly.There is also a parental pen. Having freed such an assembly from unnecessary parts, we get a full-fledged tricycle, on which a 3-year-old child will be able to ride on his own.
Models designed for cyclists 5-8 years old are 4-wheeled, wheel size 14-16 inches. Two additional rear wheels easily detach as soon as the child begins to feel confident when riding a bicycle.
The last category includes teenage models. They are equipped with adjustable saddle and steering wheel. The advantage of such options is versatility, because they can withstand weight up to 90 kg, which means that the unit can be used by an adult.
Besides, all versions differ in design. Among the proposed shades there are funny bright colors, for example, red, light green, orange, blue, as well as more solid and neutral ones - white, black, brown.
How to choose?
Choosing a bike for a child, the main criterion is the growth of a young cyclist. So, for children with a height of 80-100 cm, it is recommended to select models with 12-inch wheels. A child who has grown to 90-110 cm will feel comfortable on a bicycle with 14-inch wheels. 16-inch wheels are suitable for children with a height of 100-120 cm, and 18-inch wheels are suitable for riders from 110 to 130 cm.
If the teenager is 120-140 cm, then give preference to models with 20-inch wheels, and a student with 130-150 cm will be comfortable on 24-inch wheels. If the child's height exceeded 150 cm, then it is better for him to choose a model for adults.
In addition, try to choose options that make it possible to adjust the steering wheel and saddle height - children grow quickly, and this function will be very useful throughout the life of the bike. Be sure to take the future owner with you to the store - let him sit on a bicycle and try to pedal. Make sure that he presses the pedal with the entire foot, the legs reach the pedals in a straightened position, and when turning, do not touch the steering wheel.
Make sure that the model has reliable chain protection - it will protect the child’s clothes from falling into the chain and prevent injuries. Options with a steel frame are more budgetary, but the aluminum versions are lightweight, which is more convenient for a small cyclist.
It is better to abandon bicycles with several speeds when choosing a model for a child under 10 years old - at this age it is still difficult for the rider to change gears and at the same time keep track of the road.
