Overview
About this bike
The Kink Roaster is designed to be a kid's first BMX bike. The 12-inch wheels and frame size make it an easy transition from a balance bike, so kids will feel completely comfortable on their first pedaling bike. But this bike isn't merely a miniaturized BMX bike—it factors into account standard BMX geometry and applies it to a younger child's size and needs. The Gloss Dusk Orange colorway really pops, while the bike sports some great components throughout. In addition to the 5-inch Kink T500 bars and Kink Lance fork, the Roaster features a coaster brake in lieu of a lever-based brake system that could be too difficult for some children to use at a young age. If they are ready for a lever brake, the seatstay bridge has been designed to accept a caliper brake or 990 brake plate. Note: Designed for children ages 4 and up. Seat height adjustable from 15.5" – 18.5".
