Is this a good bike for a boy who just turned 13?

Yes it is. I bought my 8 yr old grandson this bike and my son when he was 15. They both love their bikes.

I have a 12 year old boy and he loves it. This is apparently the cool bike for this age group. He loves that it's lightweight and all of his friends want one like his.

Hey Christine. How tall? I'd say if he's over 5'0 then you'd want something bigger to allow some growing room. Otherwise this will be a good bike.

This bike would be good for ages 7 - 9 years old. I purchased this bike for my 7 year old granddaughter who is 4' tall.

My 4-year old daughter handles it easily. Shouldn't be a problem for your grandson. And it's a great bike. :)

Yes! Great bike my son is almost 4 and LOVES it!!! He especially loves the cones that come with the bike so that he can set up a "course".

Ours is two years old and still runs like a top. My 9 year daughter rides it, but my son who is almost 13 is too big for it now. The bike works well for someone under about 150 pounds. For $300 you cant ask for that much. It helps if your Dad is handy.

I purchased one for my 2 year old grandson and he loves it. Only my opinion, but I would say that your son may be a bit tall for this balance bike. YBIKE does make the Extreme for older kids that may be a better option.

It would be good for that age. Our grandson used it at that age with the peddles locked & loved it. By the next summer we unlocked the peddles & he could peddle himself.

I bought it for my son for his 3rd birthday and he rode it perfect. The strider bike is meant more for under 3. This bike is definitely for ages 3 and up.

Yes absolutely! I just purchased this bike for my three year old this past Christmas. She just turned three in January and it is the perfect fit and will easily work until she moves up to a regular two wheel bike. FYI my daughter is also very tall. The overall quality of the bike and the workmanship is well worth the price. It is very sturdy, steers well and has awesome tires! You won't find another bike like this!!

Excellent for that! My 11 year old rides his bike all over the neighborhood. I personally find the bike to be of excellent quality.

I think this bike would be too tall for him. I'd select a bike with a smaller wheel size. Our kids are five, and tall for their age, and I don't think they could have been riding this much sooner. Our kids are 42"+.

The bike weighs about 20lbs. My son is 3 1/2 and he can handle it okay. He's average for his age, so you should be fine.

It would depend on how tall and coordinated he was. The handles do not adjust to height. For the tricks you can do with this bike, it might be better if he was a little older.

I believe so. This bike is great. I bought for my grandson one and a half years ago. He was only two then and took it home and uses it constantly still. He has excellent body skills and this bike reinforces balance and strength...inside the house and outside.

My 3.5 year old used/uses this bike regularly. You will need to keep the training wheels on for that age.

My son is probably 42". The handlebars are no problem. Sometimes his feet slip off the pedals. That's not such a big deal though as the bike is largely Daddy powered and he is happy as a lark on it.
