Cannondale Kids Trail 12
Find Your Cannondale Bike Size
Some models run larger or smaller than others, and ranges overlap at the boundaries. If you're between sizes or unsure, contact us and we'll help dial in your fit.
The Kids Trail 12 is a first pedal bike done properly. A light SmartForm C3 Alloy frame, a simple kickback coaster brake, and tool-free training wheels that come off in seconds when they are ready — no spanner hunt in the shed on the big day.
Key Features
- Light, durable SmartForm C3 Alloy frame
- Tool-free training wheels — fit and remove them by hand
- Easy kickback-style coaster brake: pedal backwards to stop
- Full-coverage chainguard keeps trousers and fingers out of the chain
- 12" alloy rims on grippy, smooth-rolling tyres
Rider Fit
Suits riders of 94–107cm (3'1"–3'6"), roughly 3–5 years. Height is the reliable guide — age is only a rough one. Bring them in and we'll check the standover and reach before you buy.
Why You'll Love It
Most 12" bikes are heavy steel. This one is alloy, so a small child can actually steer it, lift it and control it — which is the difference between a bike that gets ridden and a bike that lives in the garage. Fitted and safety-checked in-store at Mackay Cycles.
