AUTHOR Record 16 2025 9" white/pink/purple

The AUTHOR Record 16 children's bike is designed for a child's first cycling experiences, starting from the age of 3. Thanks to geometry fine-tuned for stability and easy handling, children will quickly master riding it. The aluminium frame and fork ensure a low weight of just 6.5kg, making the bike easy for both children and parents to handle. Safety features, such as a chain guard and a guide handle on the saddle, provide confidence during training. The bike is designed for children with a height of 100 to 125cm and has a load capacity of 30kg.

Safety and Ergonomics for Young Riders

The bike's design emphasises maximum safety and comfort. The chain is completely covered to prevent contact with legs or clothing. For the first few rides, you'll appreciate the guide handle integrated into the saddle, which allows you to easily hold onto your child and give them a sense of security. The brake levers and handlebars are ergonomically shaped for children's hands, ensuring easy and intuitive control. The narrow-profile grips with flared ends make for a comfortable hold and prevent hands from slipping off.

A Bike That Grows with Your Child

The AUTHOR Record 16 is designed to last your child as long as possible. The 9-inch frame is slightly larger than most competing bikes with 16-inch wheels. This difference does not compromise the ease of the first rides, but it significantly extends the bike's lifespan before your child outgrows it. The adjustable handlebar height also contributes to longer use, allowing you to easily adapt the bike to your little cyclist's current height.

A Stable and Lightweight Ride

The ride characteristics are tailored for beginners. The bike's geometry promotes stability, and its lightweight construction makes the first pedal strokes and overall handling a breeze. Thanks to the aluminium frame and fork, the bike has a weight of just 6.5kg. The treaded Kenda tyres offer excellent grip on asphalt and unpaved paths. The bike is equipped with a freewheel, so your child can coast without the pedals turning. Reliable stopping power is provided by Tektro V-Brake caliper brakes.
