Is this bike too large for a 43" tall boy?

My son is is 4 years old and 44 ". He has been riding this bike for about a year now. He loves it, and I would say we have another year or so before he outgrows it! So too large? Definitely not. I think it would be perfect for him.

Not sure their heights at certain ages, but my two boys rode this bike from 2 til 5...

Hi Susie, I personally thought this was a great bike for my grandson who was five at the time of purchase. Remember it's a glide and does not have wheels. My grandson loved the bike but preferred the wheels. It is an EXCELLENT 1st bike for little guys. If you have not watched the video please do so. It is great for teaching balance and can not me any easier to put together, 5min. Best of wishes with your decision. Enjoy! Donna KDonna T. Kasinak answered on January 25, 2013

I would get the mini glider for a 43" tall boy. If you look at the reviews, there is one that mentions the go glider is too tall for a 43" boy. I recommend getting both if you have a younger child too.

My son used it when he was 45". we had originally ordered a skuut bike, but had to return because it was too small and fit my 3 yr old instead of my 5 yr old. however, my sons are long in the torso, which is what you need to reach the handles and steer.

I think you should be fine unless your son has very short legs. I have this bike and the mini glider. The mini glider is more appropriate for a 2-3 year old.

No. I'd say that's the perfect height for this bike. My kid is 44 inches tall and still loves this bike over his regular bike with pedals. I highly recommend this bike, it taught my kid how to balance on a bike in less than a week!

Yes , I would say so . We purchased this bike last year for our daughter who is now around 48inches tall now. I think it would be alittle to small for her.

No, too small for him, I'm 6'3" 260lbs. Im not comfortable on the bike, my wife is 5'4", it's perfect for her. Hope this helps.

My almost 4 grandson is about 42" tall too. I think he is on the edge of being to tall for the bike. He loves riding it still. I think we will be going for a pedal bike this summer. You might look into a balance bike with 16" wheels. That may fit better and have some grow room too.

It depends on how tall your son is. My son is 9 and the seat is almost all the way down and it fits him great (he is 4ft 9in). My 11 year old daughter (she is 5ft 4in) has the girls version of the bike and with the seat all the way up, she is ready for a new, bigger, bike.

Vernon, my Grandson is 3 and, after pushing the bike around for a week, suddenly started riding it like a pro! A 4 year old should do just fine. If he is tall, take a look at the 16".

It would be perfect. I have a 3 1/2 boy who rides it like crazy. It's a great bike.

I think that this bike will have a bit too much power for him because its a fast bike. His size might work but the speed will probably worry me since he's really only 6 years old.

I purchased the bike for my daughter who is 53" tall. She rides with the seat on the lowest possible position, and she is able to comfortably reach the pedals at this height. I'm afraid that a 48" tall child won't be able to reach the pedals quite yet.

Not sure if this helps or not, but my son is 42" tall, and fits on this bike perfectly. He's fit just fine since the day we bought it, about 6 months ago.

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!!

Hello. My son is also five and 46" tall. He and his older buddies ride this comfortably. He wont get many more years out of it but at least a year, I think. If you live in warmer climate area, he should get plenty of use!

Yes. My ten year old 55" daughter rides comfortably with the seat at a low height. This may be the last bike she needs unless she grows more than another foot.

My daughter is almost 47in and the bike still fits her well; she probably started riding it at about 40-42" (having only previously been on a balance bike). I think it should work well for you.

He should fit it perfectly. My boy is about to be 7 and the bike is perfect size for him. He should even for it for a few more years. Hope I helped :)
