Cycle Sprog - experts on kids bikes and family cycling!

Kids love bikes! Not only are they fun, but riding a bike is a great outdoor activity that gets your child active and away from screens.

But buying them the right size and type of bike is crucial if your child is really going to enjoy riding it.

We've got loads of kids bike buyers guides in all wheel sizes to help you choose the very best bike for your child, whatever their age and riding ability.

If you're just starting out, then these are a good place to start:

Rest assured we only ever recommend bikes that are safe and fun to ride, in a range of prices.

We pride ourselves on only recommending bikes we'd be happy for our friends and family to use as we've know what a difference a properly sized, good quality bike makes.

About Cycle Sprog

Cycle Sprog is a website all about cycling with kids, which husband and wife team Chris Jones and Karen Gee set up in 2012.

The idea for Cycle Sprog emerged out of frustration at the considerable time they were spending online trying to find cycling solutions to each time one of their two boys grew.

When we were moving from a trailer to a tag along and front seat combination we were moaning about how little information there was online for parents who want to cycle with their children.

We realized just how much time we’d spent over the years searching for honest advice and finding places to buy all the equipment, clothing and accessories so the idea of creating a family cycling website aimed specifically for parents was born.

It's just kept on growing, along with our boys!
