What should I look for in a kids' mountain bike?
Kids' mountain bikes should fit your child's height and need to be lightweight enough for your child to operate and walk during trail rides. Large tires are also necessary for traction on wet or rugged terrain. You also need to ensure that your child can easily use their bike's brake and gear shifting systems. Canadian Tire's assortment of youth and kids' mountain bikes feature easy-to-use front and rear V-brakes and grip gear shifters.

What is the difference between a kids' road bike and a kids' cruiser bike?
These are both popular styles of youth bikes, but they have different purposes and features. Road bikes are high-performance and meant for speed cycling on paved surfaces. Kids' road bikes typically have curled handles and narrow, light tires. Cruiser bikes are single-speed and built for comfort and basic riding. They usually feature larger seats and medium-sized tires.
