It was a nice experience, and he was so excited for his new bike. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/big-kid-bikes#post-2512038 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 17:07:17 +0000 DenverMom 2512038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to the store. He actually needed a 12 inch bike, we initially thought a 16" too. I liked that they tuned it and made sure it was the right fit for him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/big-kid-bikes#post-2511942 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 15:20:46 +0000 FancyGem 2511942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to the store. I'm glad we did because he needed a larger bike than we thought. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/big-kid-bikes#post-2511937 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 15:19:24 +0000 lamariniere 2511937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to a store to ensure the best fit. The store only sold one brand though, the one we were interested in. So at least that keep the choices to a minimum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/big-kid-bikes#post-2511903 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 15:01:43 +0000 regberadaisy 2511903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When you bought your kid a big kid bike, ie bike with training wheels. Did you buy online or took them to a local store?</p> <p>I'm fairly confident she will need a 16" but would like the reassurance of fitting at a store. My only fear is she will fall in love with a overpriced POS bike at a local store? LOL I'm a researcher at heart and would prefer to look online for a bike for best deals and reviews!</p> <p>What did you end up doing? </p>
