It can suit children who have developed basic riding skills and need a larger bicycle, but the correct fit depends on height, inseam and the specific model.

The Skid 20 is listed in Silverback’s kids’ bike range. Check the current collection for available models and compare their intended use and specifications.

Choose according to the routes your child will ride. A simpler model may be suitable for paved paths, while a trail-oriented bike may be more appropriate for suitable off-road terrain.

Gears can help when routes include hills or longer distances, but they are not essential for every rider. Consider your child’s experience and the terrain.

Only if the bicycle is suitable for that surface and the route matches the child’s skills. Begin on easy, predictable paths and follow the manufacturer’s guidance.

Check height, inseam, reach and the model’s sizing chart. Your child should be able to control the bicycle and operate the brakes comfortably.
