Most people think<\/span> I bike with my kids<\/a> because I like exercise or because I want to combat climate change<\/a>. Neither is true (or, the entire answer, at any rate). No, it’s just that sitting in pickup or dropoff lines in a car makes me want to yeet myself straight into the path of an oncoming 18-wheeler. Now that my kids are 7 and 9, and old enough to bike with me, it’s also much more fun to watch them hop curbs and swing their legs and shout, \u201cWe live in a jungle<\/em>!\u201d than it is, again, to wait for traffic lights to change.<\/p>\n

The WIRED Gear team has many children, and we enlisted many of them to test these kids\u2019 bikes on rides to school, on the trails, or around the park. These are our top picks for every age and size. Don’t see a bike for your kid here? Let us know, as we will continue to test and update these picks. And if you’re looking for a bike for yourself, check out our Best Electric Bikes<\/a>, Best Cheap Ebikes<\/a>, and Best Electric Cargo Bikes for Families<\/a> guides.<\/p>\n
