My daughter is 6 but not comfortable to ride on a bike without training wheels. I'm wondering how long would she be able to fit on this? Age wise?

in description:Other features include an attractive black and silver color scheme, a safety flag and handlebar pad, and a 20-inch wheel size. The Co-Pilot--which holds up to 75 pounds--weighs 24 pounds by itself and is recommended for ages 4 to 9.

My 13 year old son and two of his same aged friends wanted to bike ride together up to the book store and we only had the two bikes and the WeeRide so they used those. It seemed to work just fine and the WeeRide is no worse for the wear. I should think she would be fine for a while.

I think for a good two more years, I don't know what size she is but our grandson is 4 and weighs 70 lbs is is pretty tall he fits really good on this and I am sure he will for a long time the seat adjust and so does the handle bars so as he grows we can adjust those for he comfort.Its really nice because we can go on the street and I don't have to worry about him.

My daughter had the same issue...while she still prefers training wheels-she will ride anywhere on the WeeRide! She will be a smaller 7 this summer and has easily another year of room to grow with the bike...if we need it

what I can say is that my daughter is 5 35pounds and 110cm height....she loves it. but you should check their webpage I think there is a weight limit......

I would suggest you to skip this idea. Training or supporting wheels are not helpful at all. The problem is, that the kids will loose theire sense for balance by using this wheels and need more time to bike "free". Try to train first without the pedals (support by pushing), so your child learns to balance the bike with the handlebar and the body. If the bike was used before as a training bike without the pedals the know it already. The kids learn "pedaling" quite fast.

My 3.5 year old used/uses this bike regularly. You will need to keep the training wheels on for that age.

I just bought this bike for my 6 year old, who's only 4 feet, and 45 lbs. I think the bike would fit your daughter now, but she might grow out of it pretty quick. So, unless you want to buy her another bike in a year or maybe 2, I would go up a tire size. Hope this helps!

Tough call. It depends on her motor skills. Can she ride a 2 wheel bike w/o training wheels? Our 5 yr. old grandson is still using the scooter with 3 wheels. We bought this one for our 7yr. old grandson who learned to ride a 2 wheel bike at 5 and 1/2. He seemed to get the hang of an old razor scooter after that so we bought him this one for his 7th birthday. BTW - he loves it! Especially when it's just starting to get dark. But be forewarned - it sparks better on concrete than macadam.

I personally think you should be fine for at least a little while. We bought it last spring for our 4 year old daughter who is tall for her age and she rides it around like a crazy woman. Her older sister, who was 6 at that time, and who is also tall for her age (95th percentile) was able to ride it without problems with the seat at the middle position, although it was more comfortable for her when I moved the seat to the very back position. Our then 6 year old (who just turned 7 this month) learned to ride a two-wheeler this past summer however, so she really has no interest in her little sister's big wheel. Have you looked into coaster bikes?

I can't really tell you an age range, but I will tell you that we bought it for our 95th percentile in height 6 year old and it was too tall for her to feel comfortable (stable) enough to start and stop on her own. She was able to learn how to ride with a parent handle bar attached to the back, but the height set her back on learning to start/stop on her own, so we ended up buying her an 18 inch bike. It was our bad because we jumped from a 16 inch bike to this 20 inch bike. The 16 inch was way too small for her, so we were originally afraid that the 18 inch would not be a big enough jump. Hope that helps.

Bought this bike for my 4 yr old who is on the lower range of the height scale, and her legs were too short. She's about 4.5 now, grown a few inches and can reach the pedals now, but it is still a bit awkward. If your daughter is on par with a 5 year old's height, it may work but my guess is that she will still be riding at a very slow pace to begin.

I think your granddaughter would benefit from a smaller bike. She probably would not be able to ride safely on this one yet.

she 5ft8in you may a 24 inch wheel . check with bike dealer what size wheel size for you. she loves the bike so she can ride with kids.

It's perfect for my daughter, but she's small... Just over 5 ' tall. I think you'd be better off on a larger wheel.

I switched my daughter at 47" as well and the bike is just slightly too big for her. She can ride it but has a bit of difficulty with getting on and off the bike. I bought it at the end of last summer and I suspect it'll be fine by next summer.

It depends on how tall the child is. We purchases two of these bikes for our 3 year old twin girls and they love them. Their 5 year old brother is to big to ride them. He has a bike with training wheels.

My 5 year old is 42 in and we went with the 14 in. Which was perfect. With the seat in the lowest setting she is still about 1/2 an inch from having her feet flat on the ground. She should be able to ride the 14 in for another 2 years I'd say. It's tempting to go with the larger size since they can use it longer, but a bigger/heavier bike is more difficult to learn to ride on if your kid is still learning to ride w/o training wheels. Im very happy I went with the 14 in

I would recommend she be at least 3' 7" tall. The height from the ground to the seat is approximately 2' 3" completely assembled, although the upper frame bar that goes from the seat to the handlebars is a few inches lower than the seat. If she will be learning on this bike, these are the numbers I would recommend, but if she is already riding a smaller bike, she could ride this being slightly smaller than the numbers I give here. Our Granddaughter ferris loves hers, and she is approximately 3' 10" tall.

yes. we bought this bike for our 5 year old and have never used the training wheels with it. They are just laying around the house!

Guess it will depend on how tall they are and my daughter still rides it at age 7. She is still learning to on it and once she learns how to ride without the training wheels we'll get her another one.
