A 16-inch BMX is a starting point for children around 120–135 cm tall. Choose by the rider’s height rather than age, then check the recommended height and geometry of the individual bike. Two children of the same age may need different sizes.
For a child who wants to learn BMX riding and first tricks, a bike that fits is easier to handle than one bought with too much room to grow. Check what kind of riding the manufacturer recommends for the model you are considering.
Looking for a 16-inch BMX that is not currently listed? Send us a message. If it is available from the distributor, we will see if we can order it for you.
Use the chart as a starting point. TT means top tube length and describes the length of the frame. It is a separate measurement from the 16-inch wheel size.
| Rider height(cm) | Wheel size(inches) | Top tube TT(inches) |
|---|---|---|
| 120–135 cm | 16″ | 15″–16″ |
This chart is a guide based on RMDBike’s fitting experience. Check the recommended rider height and geometry of the individual BMX before ordering.
If your child is close to the top of this range, tell us their height and current bike size. We will help you compare a 16-inch BMX with the next size up.

Once you have checked the size, look at the individual bike. Compare its frame, fork, cranks, wheels and brake, and check what kind of riding the manufacturer recommends. Two BMX bikes with 16-inch wheels can have different parts and feel different to ride.
If your child wants to learn tricks or ride at a skatepark, choose a model intended for freestyle riding. A bike that fits the rider and suits the place they want to ride is a better starting point than choosing by colour alone, however tempting that colour may be.
Before your child rides their new BMX, take it to a professional bicycle workshop for a paid initial service. This is required to retain the manufacturer’s warranty. Keep the receipt or other proof of the service.
The bike arrives around 90% assembled. Read the supplied manual and warranty terms, and fit the parts specified for your model. These usually include the pedals and handlebars; the saddle or front wheel may also need fitting. Have the workshop check the assembled bike before the first ride.
Check the brake, wheels, chain and bolts regularly, and inspect the bike again after a fall or hard landing. Parts can loosen or wear as the bike is ridden.
Yes, if the individual bike is designed for freestyle riding and fits the child. Check the manufacturer’s intended use before buying a BMX for jumps or skatepark riding.
Consider an 18-inch BMX when the 16-inch bike feels cramped and your child can comfortably control a larger one. Rider height is a useful guide, but the dimensions of the particular bikes matter too. Do not choose the larger size just to leave room for growth.
Yes, provided the model is made for freestyle riding and the child can control it comfortably. Check the bike’s intended use before riding ramps or trying jumps.
Yes. Make sure the brake works properly before each ride. If it needs adjusting, ask a bicycle workshop for help.
Start with a properly fitting skate helmet. Knee and elbow pads are also useful when learning tricks or riding at a skatepark.
