Right-sized for independent kids
These 20” bikes are built for young riders who can pedal on their own — best for children approximately 4’–5’ tall and capable of riding without training wheels. Children must remain under the supervision of a parent or guardian while riding.
Simple BMX, single-speed control
A straightforward BMX-style, single-speed design keeps handling predictable and easy for young cyclists; seats are adjustable and every bike is inspected and supplied in safe, working order at the start of the rental.
Trail-side pickup and flexible rental windows
Rentals are available daily or weekly with convenient pick-up (and delivery) options so families can begin their ride without loading bikes into a vehicle. If bikes are returned outside business hours, they should be locked to the designated green bike racks beside the garage using the provided lock.
