What is a kids' bike handlebar and what do you need it for?

The handlebar is the part of the bike that the child actually holds onto while riding. It is attached to the stem of the kids' bike and also determines the riding position, comfort, and control over the kids' bike. A well-fitting handlebar helps children steer better and contributes to a safe riding experience.

What types of kids' bike handlebars are there?

Kids' bike handlebars are available in various shapes, sizes, and styles:

• Straight handlebars: Commonly used on simple city and kids' bikes, providing a neutral riding position.
• Curved or raised handlebars: For a higher hand position – more comfortable for young children.
• BMX handlebars: Wide, high handlebars for cool bikes with extra grip and control.
• Race or sporty handlebars: For sporty kids' bikes, often slightly curved.
• With or without crossbar: An extra crossbar increases sturdiness and aesthetics in BMX handlebars.

What to consider when buying a kids' bike handlebar?

• Diameter: The handlebar must fit into the stem (often 22.2 mm or 25.4 mm clamp diameter).
• Width: Consider the shoulder width of the child – too wide or too narrow can be uncomfortable.
• Height / rise: A higher handlebar provides a straighter riding position – ideal for younger children.
• Material: Aluminum is lightweight and rust-resistant, while steel is stronger but heavier.
• Grip zones: Ensure there is enough space for grips, brake levers, and possibly a bell or gears.
• Style & color: Kids' bike handlebars also come in cheerful colors and shapes that match the bike's design.
