• For children up to 65lbs (30kg), we have tag-along trailers.

• All riders over 100lbs (45kg) must ride their own bicycle and be comfortable doing so. We unfortunately can not accommodate adults who are not able to ride their own bike.
• We also have smaller sized mountain bikes for kids who want to ride on their own, and our adult bikes have a step-through frame making it easier for taller kids/shorter adults (note that none of our bikes have pedal brakes).
