A stable bike built for small, developing riders, the Mini Rod 16-inch boys' bike suits a very young lad's sensibiities.

  • With a single speed and coaster brakes, the child-size Mini Rod is simplicity itself; there are no shifters and hand brakes to worry a new rider
  • Flame graphics on the frame, fenders and chainguard suit a young man's tastes; he'll find them on the spring-cushioned saddle as well
  • Custom red rims set the look off nicely
  • Integrated coaster brake is both effective and intuitively simple to use—just have him pedal in reverse
  • Sturdy steel frame withstands all sorts of abuse; metal chain cover and fenders help protect child from grime and moving parts
  • Removable training wheels make learning easy and do wonders for a child's confidence
  • Ergonomic saddle helps balance the child atop the bike in comfort; handlebar design accommodates an upright ride and enhances control
  • Wide balloon tires enhance stability and traction

Fitting an Electra bike is easy. Start by setting the saddle to its lowest position and then stand over it with both feet flat on the ground. Next, simply raise the saddle until it rests in the crotch. Tighten it in place, and that's it— you're done! After an initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.

Imported.
