Professional kids bike check - brakes, tyres, saddle height, and all safety points checked and adjusted. Make sure they're safe before they ride.
### Small Bikes, Big Safety
Kids outgrow bikes fast. **What fitted last summer is wrong now.** Saddle too low, brakes not reaching, training wheels that should have come off months ago. A proper check catches everything.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Start of cycling season is perfect timing. Bikes sat in sheds all winter need checking before spring riding.
