We’ve highlighted instances where this is the case. Be aware that each bike is different, and some bikes might not work with certain sets of training wheels, even if they appear to be appropriately sized. These training wheel options come in a range of sizes that will work with everything from 12-inch bike wheels to 26-inch bike wheels, and everything in between. The bracket/arm length of the training wheels determines the best size bike for each set, and we’ve also listed the appropriate bike sizes in the specs for each set we feature. Like all bike components, training wheels should be checked for stability and tightness before each ride, and adjusted if something seems off.
The training wheels should be set slightly higher than the rear tire, for balance training as well as safety, and always double-check your bolts before the rider sets off. Construction, quality components, and the correct installation are all critical when choosing and installing training wheels.
