A truly unique child's bike; the Geared Owl allows your son or daughter to take things into his/her hands when climbing hills or zooming across long flats. As a bonus the shifting mechanism is encased in an aluminum shell inside the rear hub, allowing smooth gear shifts with no maintenance for thousands of miles.
Fit:
Owl Best fit for riders with an inseam of 19" to 23" A rider with a 21" inseam will sit on the Owl with their bottom on the saddle, flat-footed on the ground with the seat at its lowest position. At that same saddle height, riders with 19” inseam will happily sit with only the balls of their feet on the ground. As long as a child has an inseam of 19”, their arms and torso are long enough so they can reach the handlebars comfortably.
