Boardman JNR 16" 2026 - Kids Bike
The Boardman JNR 16" is all about giving young riders the best possible start on their cycling journey. Drawing inspiration from Boardman’s award-winning HYB hybrid range, it’s built to be light, stable, and easy to control. Exactly what growing riders need as they transition from gliding to pedalling.
Key Features:
- Lightweight triple-butted smooth weld aluminium frame
- Rigid triple-butted aluminium fork with chromo steerer
- Single-speed drivetrain for simple, efficient riding
- TEKTRO mini V-brakes with short reach levers
- 16" double-wall alloy wheels with Vee Speedster tyres
- Familiar one-piece handlebar and stem setup
- 0% APR finance available
A triple-butted alloy frame with smooth welds keeps weight to a minimum (just 6.2kg), making it easier for kids to balance and manoeuvre. The matching aluminium fork and strong double-wall alloy rims add durability without adding bulk, ensuring the bike can handle every wobble, bump, and adventure.
The single-speed drivetrain is carefully chosen to give the perfect balance of ease and comfort, light enough for early starts yet capable of building speed as confidence grows. Stopping power comes from TEKTRO J310 mini V-brakes paired with short-reach levers designed specifically for smaller hands, helping young riders feel in control.
Fast-rolling Vee Speedster tyres provide grip and comfort on tarmac and light paths, while the familiar one-piece handlebar and stem setup matches Boardman’s balance bike, making the transition smoother and less intimidating.
Every detail of the JNR 16" encourages kids to explore, develop skills, and experience the simple joy of cycling. With stylish hidden welds and a premium finish, it looks every bit as good as it rides.

Boardman JNR 16" 2026 - Kids Bike
Considered Isla and Frog. This is a fantastic alternative for our 105 cm son who just turned 5 and in transitioning from an Isla Cnoc 14L. Solid but light. Looks trendier than alternative. Great colour will suit his sister too in time.
