Finally, I desperately purchased a 24-inch bike because it was set up for riders up to 5 feet tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the bike is just a little too small for me, I discovered it\u2019s just perfectly sized for my kids, who are around 9 and 11 years old. They love this bike, and I\u2019m so glad they have it to ride! But there are lots of other 24-inch bikes that are great, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, I will review the best 24-inch bikes. First, I\u2019ll tell you their key specs, the pros and cons of each one, and give you my verdict.

Some smaller bikes and specific mountain bikes will have 650b wheels or 27.5-inch wheels. But those bikes, sized by the bike frame, might still be too big for petite adults and growing kids. So they\u2019ll need to go a little bit smaller. A kid&#8217;s 24-inch bike is the answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A 24-inch bike is sized by the wheel and not by the frame. So there could be some variation in size over who can ride this bike. However, in most cases, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/who-is-a-24-inch-bike-for\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">24 inch bike<\/a> is just right for kids in between ages 7 to 11 or petite adults who are under five feet tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my case, a 24-inch bike is just slightly too small but is perfect for my kids, who are somewhat shorter than I am. Here are the best 24-inch bikes and the ones I would consider purchasing for my kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Best 24 Inch Bikes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Bike<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Intended Age<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Height<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Bike Frame<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Brakes<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Gearing<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Price<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Rating<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Marin Rift Zone JR<\/td><td>Unlisted<\/td><td>One Size<\/td><td>Aluminum Full-Suspension<\/td><td>Hydraulic Disc Brakes<\/td><td>Shimano 1 X 11 32T chainring with 11 \u2013 46T cassette<\/td><td>$1899<\/td><td>5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Woom Bike Original<\/td><td>7 and up<\/td><td>49 \u2013 57 inches<\/td><td>Aluminum<\/td><td>Front and rear V-Brakes<\/td><td>8-Speed Drivetrain, SRAM Twist Shifter,<\/td><td>$649<\/td><td>4.5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Woom Off 5<\/td><td>7 \u2013 11 Years<\/td><td>50.39 \u2013 57.09 inches<\/td><td>Aluminum frame with carbon fork<\/td><td>Disc Brakes<\/td><td>SRAM X5 28 Teeth Crankset and 11-34T cassette<\/td><td>$849<\/td><td>4.5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Co-op Cycles Rev CTY Step-Through<\/td><td>Kids<\/td><td>Unlisted<\/td><td>6061 Aluminum Step-through<\/td><td>Linear Pull Rim Brakes<\/td><td>42\/34\/24 Chainring with 14 \u2013 34 cassette<\/td><td>$399<\/td><td>4.3\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Electra Cruiser<\/td><td>Kids<\/td><td>Unlisted<\/td><td>Steel Step-through<\/td><td>Rear Coaster Brake<\/td><td>44t chainring and 22t rear cog<\/td><td>$400<\/td><td>4.1\/5<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-top:2em;margin-bottom:2em;padding-top:0em;padding-right:0em;padding-bottom:0em;padding-left:0em\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0em;margin-right:0em;margin-bottom:0em;margin-left:0em\">Best 24 Inch Full Suspension Mountain Bike<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px\">1. <strong>Marin Rift Zone JR 24\u201d Bike<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image1-12.jpg\" alt=\"image1 12\" class=\"wp-image-11508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image1-12.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image1-12-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image1-12-768x431.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This little bike can really shred!

The Rift Zone JR is based on the Rift Zone but in a smaller form.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you\u2019ll pay a little bit more coin to get this bike, but you also get loads more features.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, although it comes with 24-inch wheels, there\u2019s enough frame clearance for 26-inch wheels, so you can get a few extra years out of it just by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rei.com\/learn\/expert-advice\/bike-tires.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">changing them out.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next up, the Rift Zone JR has 120mm of front and rear suspension. This will give you much more grip on rough terrain and smooth out the lumps and bumps, so the ride doesn\u2019t feel so harsh. It follows this up with Shimano hydraulic disc brakes (my favorite type) to provide steady and consistent stopping power.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love that this bike is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.singletracks.com\/mtb-gear\/best-dropper-posts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dropper post compatible<\/a> and has tubeless-ready wheels. So you can inexpensively upgrade the bike to make it a little more gnarly and a little more puncture-proof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This bike can rip it up, and while it is the most expensive bike on the list, if you compare it to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/best-24-inch-mountain-bikes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">similar mountain bikes<\/a>, you\u2019ll find it\u2019s a very high value for the price.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marin doesn\u2019t give you much info on exactly who this bike is for \u2013 they leave it a bit open-ended. However, if you\u2019re a very petite adult and aren\u2019t ready to cash in a Furtado, you might want to try out the Marin JR or some other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/best-mountain-bikes-under-1000\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">entry-level mountain bike<\/a>. It makes a well-rounded short travel short-suspension bike ready for some simple upgrades.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:2em;margin-bottom:2em;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RATING<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Type of Riding<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Age and Size of Rider <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Frame Type and Style<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Type of Brakes<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gearing<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Price to Value<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OUR VERDICT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Of all the 24-inch bikes on this list, the Marin JR is the one most likely to be able to be used by an adult, as well. It\u2019s tough to find any drawbacks on this bike other than the price. I\u2019ll admit it costs a little more, but that\u2019s because it comes with better components, and full-suspension bikes always cost more than a hardtail (non-suspension bike). I love this bike so much that I give it a 5 out of 5.

It has an ultralight frame and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainbikenut.com\/trigger-grip-shifter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">grip shifter<\/a> with flat bars for easy handling. You\u2019ll also find eight gears to make it up those steep hills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Woom 5 is intended for kids aged 7 to 11 \u2013 old enough to shift and brake well. For height, it is designed to fit kids who are 49 to 57 inches tall \u2013 so roughly between 4 and 5 feet tall. However, the crank length and the distance between the pedals (the Q Factor) were designed with children\u2019s bodies in mind. As a result, it makes the bike easier for them to pedal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bike is easily adjustable at the stem and the seat, so you can make it fit just right. It has knobby tires to take on easy trails or pavement. And it has independently working front and rear rim brakes. Rim brakes have been around for many years and work well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wouldn\u2019t hesitate to get one of these bikes for my kids. I like how easy it is to adjust, I love the safety features, and I especially love how it is designed with kids\u2019 bodies in mind. In addition, the weight limit is very forgiving at 175 pounds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At $649, it isn\u2019t just a big box bike \u2013 you\u2019ll get more quality and durability than a cheap bike, even if it isn\u2019t as high quality as some of the more expensive bikes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:2em;margin-bottom:2em;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RATING<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Type of Riding<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Age and Size of Rider <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Frame Type and Style<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Type of Brakes<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gearing<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Price to Value<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4\/5<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OUR VERDICT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I give this bike a 4.5 out of 5 possible points.

So it\u2019s designed to take a bit of a beating and harder riding. Second, it has disc brakes, which give you much more stopping power, especially under wet or muddy conditions. Finally, it has a carbon fork, which absorbs more road chatter than a typical aluminum fork, making your ride much more comfortable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s still a standard Woom bike, designed to fit children\u2019s bodies comfortably. However, your child will get a more comfortable ride with shorter cranks and pedals that are a bit closer together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This bike might work for a petite adult, but considering it was designed for the average child\u2019s proportions, it probably won\u2019t.&nbsp; Even the brakes and grip shifters were designed with children\u2019s hands in mind. That makes it ideal for a child but maybe not for a small adult.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Woom Off 5 has a 28T chainring in the front with an 11-34 T cassette in the back. This gives you many easy gears for hill climbing but not many hard gears for pure speed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a great bike for easy mountain biking and gravel riding. You can take it a little bit further if you purchase the model with the optional front suspension, which gives you a little more grip and a little bit more cushioning, but it won\u2019t handle terrain like a full-suspension bike.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It would work really well in place of a hybrid or gravel bike.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:2em;margin-bottom:2em;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RATING<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Type of Riding<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Age and Size of Rider <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Frame Type and Style<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Type of Brakes<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gearing<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Price to Value<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OUR VERDICT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I really like the concept of womb bikes because they design bikes that are great for kids 7 to 11.

So the Co-op Cycles REV CTY has created a step-through frame that makes it easier for smaller kids to get on and off the bike, which stretches the time they can use it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although they call it a step-through bike, it&#8217;s really more of a hybrid bike. It\u2019s great to tool around town, hit some easy gravel trails, or ride to school and home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bike looks just like a smaller version of an adult hybrid bike, so it won\u2019t look childish to your preteen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A really cool characteristic of this bike is the triple chainring. These are hard to find, but they give you a wide range of gears with a 42\/34\/24 chainring in the front and a 14 \u2013 34 cassette in the back. Hills, flats, and descents are no problem at all with these gears.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This bike could work for a petite adult, but it\u2019s probably best left to younger kids for two reasons. First, the weight limit is only 120 pounds, including any cargo. Many kids and adults over age 12 will simply be too heavy for this bike. On the other hand, the bike uses linear-pull brakes, my least favorite in stopping power.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, they will stop you \u2013 but the lighter and smaller the rider, the better the brakes will work. A larger, heavier rider will have more momentum and likely more speed than these brakes are great for.

The Electra Cruiser has this vacation-esque, retro feel that\u2019s fun and easy to pedal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the details. It\u2019s a steel-framed, single-speed bike with a 44t chainring and a 22t cog. Riding with its cushy seat and comfortable, vibration-absorbing frame will be very comfortable. But you aren\u2019t going to go fast with the upright position and single speed. Riding up hills will be a bit tough, but it will be a great ride on flat roads and boardwalks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s really cool about this bike is that it is designed for the seat to sit comfortably low so that kids (or short-legged adults) can put their foot down on the ground without getting off the seat. And, of course, in a true cruiser \u2013 fashion, it has a shallow step-through frame and nice comfortable, upright handlebars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You get even more comfort from the wide, cushy wheels and the springs in the seat. It looks like an old-fashioned bike \u2013 and it is!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This bike has an old-fashioned coaster brake, meaning you just pedal backward to stop the bike. However, this does give you lots of stopping power as long as you know how to use it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This would be a fun bike to ride in a flat area, but if you live in a very hilly location, you will either get tired or really strong fast!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:2em;margin-bottom:2em;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RATING<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Type of Riding<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">3\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Age and Size of Rider <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Frame Type and Style<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Type of Brakes<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4\/5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gearing<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">3\/5<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OUR VERDICT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I really like this bike for its very comfortable ride and cool retro appearance. This is a great bike if you want something to creep over to the ice cream shop. But it won\u2019t give you speed or hill climbs \u2013 it&#8217;s all about comfort whether you are a child or a petite adult. And if that\u2019s your jam, it makes a lovely little bike for the price. I give it a 4.1 out of 5.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>24 Inch Bike Buying Guide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are looking for the best 24-inch bike, you will want to know what to look for in one of these bikes. After studying 24-inch bikes, I\u2019ve decided on a list of important criteria for any 24-inch bike. Then, I rated each bike based on the criteria below. Here\u2019s what you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Type of Riding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First, you need to know what riding your rider will do. Do they (or you) just want an all-around bike to ride around the neighborhood? Or maybe a hardtail to hit some gravel trails or even a full-suspension mountain bike to rip it up? On the other hand, maybe your rider just wants to cruise along the boardwalk with their puppy in a basket, which is another type of bike altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Age and Size of Rider<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the bikes on this list have 24-inch wheels. They are intended for petite adults and children roughly aged 7 to 11. If your child is extra small or extra tall, they may need a somewhat bigger or smaller bike. Typically, bikes of this size will fit anyone 4 to 5 feet tall. But ideally, your rider will have a chance to test the bike to see if it\u2019s the right size for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Frame Type and Style<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several different frame styles on this list. First of all, most of the frames are made of aluminum which is lightweight, sturdy, and inexpensive. One bike is made from steel, which is also inexpensive but gives you a smoother ride but a heavier bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The frame styles vary from an all-around bike, mountain bike, and step-through\/cruiser frames. The frame style will depend on the type of riding you\u2019re planning for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Type of Brakes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In my opinion, brakes are one of the most critical functions of a bike. A bike needs good brakes, and the rider needs to know how to use them well. But different types of bikes have different types of brakes. For example, the cruiser bike uses a coaster brake. This works because it only has one gear and isn\u2019t built for speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mountain bikes, on the other hand, are better off with disc brakes. Rim brakes are also okay for bikes that won\u2019t be in rough terrain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Gearing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Gearing has to do with the cogs on the bike that make it easier to shift and ride uphill. The cruiser bike only has one gear, so no shifting is necessary \u2013 but it might be hard to pedal uphill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"594\" src=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image3-8-edited.jpg\" alt=\"image3 8\" class=\"wp-image-11587\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image3-8-edited.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image3-8-edited-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image3-8-edited-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This bike is a great value for the price. <em>Woom<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Price<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bikes on this list range from $399 at the lower end to $1899 at the higher end. The cruiser bike is made of steel, which is less expensive and only has one gear and simple brakes, which are also less expensive. On the other hand, the full-suspension mountain bike is more expensive because it has many more parts and higher-end components. But if your rider is just cruising around the neighborhood, and less expensive bike will get the job done, but it won\u2019t be suitable for ripping up the trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It isn\u2019t always easy to find the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/best-kids-bikes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">right bike to fit<\/a> a kid or a petite adult. But these bikes are all great choices for an average <a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/kids-bike-size-chart\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">7 to 11-year-old<\/a>. If I were to pick a favorite, it would have to be the Marin Rift Zone JR. It\u2019s just such a great value bike for the price, with high-end components and tons of capability. It is easy and ready to upgrade. Plus, it\u2019s a great choice for a petite adult looking for an entry-level mountain bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:2em;margin-bottom:2em;padding-top:0em;padding-right:0em;padding-bottom:0em;padding-left:0em\">\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\"><strong>You May Also Like:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul style=\"padding-left:2em\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/electric-mini-bike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/electric-mini-bike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The 5 Best Electric Mini Bikes for Fun and Compact Rides 2023<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/best-bikes-for-4-year-olds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/best-bikes-for-4-year-olds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Best Bikes for 4-Year-Olds: Ready To Ride In 2023<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/20-inch-mountain-bike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/20-inch-mountain-bike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best 20-inch Mountain Bikes: Ultimate Off-Road Machines (2023<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1679981372635\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How do I know which type of bike to get my child?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If your child is newer to riding, you might prefer a Woom bike for ease of use.
