MY REVIEW
I have fond memories of learning to ride a bike, and teaching Elliot to ride has been something I’ve looked forward to. Elliot is making quick progress thanks to Trek!
Elliot’s bike is a Trek Jet 16 and it’s the perfect beginner bike with sturdy training wheels, comfortable seat, grippy handle bars, and plenty of reflectors. It’s light weight enough that Elliot can maneuver it easily by himself and won’t get stuck if he does fall over, and it’s a nice smooth ride so he’s comfortable on the road. Just look at his face – he’s having a blast!
Trek kid’s bikes are great because they’re designed to grow with the child. Elliot is tall for his age so we got the 4-6 bike so he could grow into it. Even though it’s a little big, he still can ride comfortably and reach the pedals and everything. Trek has designed bikes to match a child’s physique and stature just right.
The Jet 16 is a basic bike with a single speed and coaster brakes. The training wheels can be removed and the seat raised, and I’m sure it will last through the use of several children. Also it looks very cool. We love the sporty red and white or the Jet 16 also comes in a metallic blue and white combo as well.
Boyd put it all together in an evening and we had about 8 neighbor kids standing around totally enthralled with this super cool bike.
I love the range of Trek products – they’ve got bikes for all ages and stages and you get good quality for the price. Quality is important for a first bike and the Jet 16 is easy to ride and learn on.
We love bike riding as a mode of transportation, recreation, and exercise, and thanks to Trek, Elliot can ride along with us safely and have a great time!
