2 great bikes and excellent experience

Great overall experience - excellent bikes (both arrived brand new in their boxes), smooth and friendly communication, and quick delivery and return.

We first rented a Squish 18 and later a Woom 4. I only wish I’d discovered Wuva sooner, as my son used to outgrow bikes and switch sizes twice a year.

Help at hand!

Brilliant service and easy contact help always on hand I rented a mobility scooter recently and it arrived crated up? The chap from WUVA came out around seven thirty that same dark wet night and helped me unpack and get the scooter inside! Also he helped me tidy up all the packaging! Great service!!!!

Wheelchair hire made easy

Was so easy to hire the wheelchair I needed. Cost was great to. Even when I had a problem a simple call sorted things out. Would recommend to anyone.

Lightweight kids' bikes — buy, rent, subscribe or lease

The single biggest factor in whether a child enjoys cycling is weight. A lighter bike is easier to balance, pedal and pick up — so kids ride sooner, further and with more confidence. We bring together the UK's best lightweight brands and let you buy, rent, subscribe or go refurbished.

Why lightweight bikes make the difference

Children are small and still building strength. A bike that's a third of their body weight is genuinely hard work. Lightweight bikes solve that with thinner-walled frames, lighter wheels and child-sized components.

Easier to balance and steer
Less effort to pedal, especially uphill
Simple to lift and recover after a wobble
More confidence, faster learning

The brands we offer

We hand-pick the lightweight brands parents trust:

Woom — award-winning Austrian design, around 40% lighter than average. Browse Woom.
YOMO — hand-built, lightweight frames. Browse YOMO.
Squish — UK-designed, lightweight and great value. Browse Squish.

Which size does my child need?

Kids' bikes are sized by wheel diameter, roughly by age:

12-inch balance bikes — around ages 2–4.
14–16-inch — around ages 4–6, first pedal bikes.
18–20-inch — around ages 6–9.
24–26-inch — around ages 9+.

See our guide to choosing the right bike size, or browse all kids' bikes.

Buy, subscribe, or choose refurbished

Own it outright, subscribe monthly and swap as they grow, or pick a refurbished bike for less than new. Whatever you choose, free UK delivery and free collection come as standard.

Kids Bike FAQs

Everything you need to know

Get Started

A lightweight kids' bike is one that's been engineered to weigh as little as possible — frame, wheels and components. It matters because children are small: a bike that's too heavy is hard to balance, pedal uphill and pick up after a fall, which knocks confidence. Lighter bikes are simply easier and more fun to ride.

We offer the UK's leading lightweight kids' bike brands — Woom, YOMO and Squish — chosen because they're genuinely light, well-built and easy for children to handle.

All of them. You can buy outright, choose a refurbished bike for less, or subscribe monthly and swap sizes as your child grows. Flexible options mean you only pay for what suits your family.

Kids' bikes are sized by wheel diameter, roughly by age: 12-inch balance bikes around ages 2–4, 14–16-inch around 4–6, 18–20-inch around 6–9, and 24–26-inch for 9+. Measuring your child's inside-leg gives the most accurate fit.

On a subscription, when your child outgrows their bike you swap to the next size up — we deliver the new one and collect the old one free of charge, so there's nothing to store or resell.

You can choose. Many bikes are available brand new or refurbished — refurbished bikes are inspected and prepared by Wuva and cost less than new.

Yes — free delivery to your door anywhere in mainland UK, with free collection when you swap or return.
