A 12-in wheel and a saddle starting at 18.5 in put the ground within easy reach of a three year old, which is what makes a first pedal bike feel safe rather than intimidating. Riders 31.5 to 41.3 in tall with an 18 to 19.5 in inseam fall in range, and the seat holds up to 110 lbs Training wheels bolt off later. Both a hand lever and a coaster brake are fitted, so a child who forgets one still has a second way to stop. A bell warns walkers, front and rear reflectors add visibility, and the chain sits behind a full guard.
