REI Members get back an estimated $ 16.90 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Our Novara Stinger 16 in. kids' bike has a slightly bigger frame and wheels than its 12 in. sibling, offering all the fun a developing rider could want from their first bike.

Sturdy high-tensile steel frame is almost as tough as they are and is designed to stand up to demanding use
Rear coaster brake is easy and intuitive to use; simply backpedaling engages the brake
Removable training wheels and built-in full-length chainguard help kids learn to ride without fear of tipping over or catching pants in the chain
BMX-style handlebar is comfortable and fun; pads enhance safety and the front mud guard helps keep things clean
Convenient handle is integrated into the back of the saddle for easy carrying or control
Specs on the Novara Stinger 16 in. bike are subject to change

After its 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.

Comments about Novara Stinger 16" Kids' Bike - 2012:

I bought this bike for my now 5 yr old son 2 years ago. He hated the training wheels, as most kids do. But after removing them, he has riden this bike on anything from the MS Ride (road) to farm trails (singletrack). He has been asking me to help him with ramps and I feel that this bike can handle them.
The only problem that we've had is that the back wheel worked loose on a ride. Most likely my fault for lack of maintance.
