About Biky
Biky is a small kids' bike company in Southern California. Biky Inc. was founded in 2023, and the first Biky Air bikes reached families in February 2024. Since then more than 2,700 Biky Air bikes have gone to about 2,300 families in all 50 states, Alaska and Hawaii included.
We sell direct on bikybikes.com, with no stores and no dealer network. That is how a bike with a 6061-T6 aluminum frame and Tektro brakes is priced below the comparable woom and Prevelo models, and why a person on the Biky team who knows the bikes answers your questions.
Kids can.
We believe childhood belongs outside: in parks, on trails, by the water, around the neighborhood, and wherever curiosity takes a child. Our mission is to help families give kids more of that freedom. Children now spend less time outdoors than any generation before them, and a screen never asks for courage. A bike does. Biky started with a lighter, better kids' bike, and our ambition is bigger: to change what families expect from a child's bike, because we believe children are capable of more when we give them the right tools, the confidence and the freedom to explore. Kids can.
Designed for kids, not shrunk from adult bikes
Many store kids' bikes are scaled-down adult designs: a heavy frame, adult parts, levers a child's fingers cannot reach. Too heavy to lift means one fall ends the ride, and at that moment a child needs proof that they can. We rebuilt the bike around the child. Weight a child can lift, so a fall never ends the ride. Brakes sized to a child's fingers, so one hand gives a full stop. A fully covered chain on the single-speed models, so nothing catches and nothing pinches. Geometry built for a child's proportions: a low step-through, a low bottom bracket, a narrow pedal stance and kid-sized crank arms. Thirty-three decisions in total. A fall stops being the end: the child lifts the bike and gets back on, and grows up knowing they can, because they proved it themselves.
Here are the main ones, and which models carry them:
| Weight | With pedals: Air 14 12.0 lb, Air 16 12.7 lb, Air 20 14.2 lb, Air 20 S7 16.7 lb, Air 24 S7 19.0 lb; the Air 12 balance bike 7.2 lb. Pedals weigh 0.4 lb. A child can lift the bike after a fall and get back on, so the ride does not end there. |
| Two hand brakes | Tektro brakes front and rear on every pedal model, on short-reach alloy levers that need 1.1 kgf to engage. A small hand gets a full stop, and the child brakes with the hands from the first ride. |
| Freewheel, no coaster brake | The pedals turn backward to set up a start, and stopping is in the hands, the way it will be on every bike the child rides later. |
| Covered chain | On the single-speed Air 14, Air 16 and Air 20 the whole chain runs inside a closed Hebie Chainglider cover. Nothing catches pant legs or fingers, and the chain stays clean. |
| Low step-through frame | Easy to get on and off, and easy to put a foot down in a hurry. |
| Low bottom bracket and long wheelbase | A low center of gravity and a steady track, so the bike stays calm at walking speed, where learning happens. |
| Narrow pedal stance and kid-sized cranks | A narrow Q-factor and ProWheel crank arms from 89 mm on the Air 14 to 127 mm on the Air 24 S7, so short legs pedal in a natural line. |
| Seat range and quick-release clamp | Seat heights from 12.5 to 16 in on the Air 12 up to 26 to 34.5 in on the Air 24 S7, changed without tools. One bike fits two to three years of growth. |
| Steering limiter | On the Air 12, Air 14 and Air 16 a removable limiter keeps the bars from swinging too far while a child learns, and comes off when the child is ready. |
| Kid-sized grips and bars | 19 mm grips on the 12, 14 and 16 inch bikes, 22 mm on the 20 and 24 inch; handlebars from 390 to 560 mm wide. A child's hand closes around the grip. |
| Air tires with reflective sidewalls | CST tires with Schrader valves roll easier than foam and pump at any gas station; the reflective sidewalls and rims show the bike from the side at dusk. Front and rear reflectors are in the box. |
| Sealed bearings, internal cables, covered bolts | Sealed bearings in the headset, bottom bracket and hubs mean less maintenance; cables run inside the frame and the axle bolts are covered, so nothing sticks out to snag. |
| Pedals that unscrew | On every pedal model the pedals come off in a minute, so the Air 14 and Air 16 work as a balance bike first and a pedal bike later. |
| Gear indicator on the 7-speed models | The Air 20 S7 and Air 24 S7 use a MicroShift grip shifter with a gear indicator, so a child sees which gear is on and learns to shift by looking, not guessing. |
| Standards and limits | Pedal bikes meet CPSC 16 CFR Part 1512, the Air 12 meets ASTM F963; maximum rider weight 110 lb on the Air 12 and 130 lb on the pedal models. |
Every one of these is on the specification table of each bike: Air 12, Air 14, Air 16, Air 20, Air 20 S7, Air 24 S7.
The people behind Biky
Stanislav Reginskiy, co-founder and engineer. He has designed kids' bikes for more than ten years and designed every Biky Air: the frame, the pedal stance, the short-reach brake levers and the seat ranges that let one bike last two to three years.
Danil Kontsevoy, co-founder and CEO. He runs the company and answers customer messages himself.
How a Biky is made
Designed in California and manufactured in Asia. Pedal bikes meet the U.S. safety standard for bicycles, CPSC 16 CFR Part 1512; the Air 12 balance bike meets ASTM F963.
Every bike arrives partly assembled. An adult mounts the handlebar and the pedals in about 5 minutes with the hex keys in the box. We weigh every model ourselves on a hanging scale, with and without pedals, so a parent can compare like with like.
