So much to love in one bike
SureStop, Easy Reach Brakes
With SureStop, there’s only one brake lever, so your kid can’t get confused when things happen fast. Our patented brakes won’t ever flip the bike, and the lever is in just the right place for kid-size hands.
Lightweight Design
The Guardian Ethos has a lightweight steel frame, making it easy to control while still durable enough to outlast your kid. Like every Guardian bike, it’s kid-tested to be safe and fun to ride.
Eye Candy Decals
Our bike colors and designs were developed by kids, for kids, to make our bikes the coolest bikes on the block. Our Guardian Ethos line uses water-transfer decals with a clear coat finish, giving the whole bike a polished shine.
Kid-specific Geometry
Kids don’t just need smaller bikes. They need different bikes. With all the right proportions. They need smaller grips. They need less distance between the pedals. They need shorter crank arms and a low center of gravity. All Guardian bikes are designed for kids, from the ground up.
Low Step-over Height
The low cross bar makes our bikes easy to get on, and a lot safer if your kid comes off their seat in a hurry.
Adjustable Seat
Every Guardian bike seat is both easily adjustable and easy to lock down. You can adjust the height to fit your kid as they grow up with the bike.
No Coaster Brake
Guardian bikes never have coaster brakes. Period. New riders backpedal to keep their balance. If a bike has coaster brakes, this stops the bike, just when they were getting the hang of it. Our brakes stop faster, with much more control.

United States2nd guardian bike I have ordered.
My grandkids love the Guardian bikes. Now I need to order another one for the next child’s birthday…I hope they have more colors so they can tell their bikes apart!
United States20 inch small bike
Great experience ! My daughter loves her new bike.It looks better than in the picture! She rides it everyday. I am very happy with my purchase.
United StatesFirst Pedal Bike
Overall very happy with this purchase. The front tire did arrive with a puncture in the inner tube, but they shipped me a new one overnight so I would have it in time for my sons birthday. Thank you Guardian Bikes!
United StatesExcellent bike - Stellar Support Service
The bike is excellent and the brake system is second to none. My child is more confident handling this bike than any other tried - and so am I. No adjustment time needed, very safe. That is a huge plus as we can go together biking for more miles and time! But, that's not all. Upon receipt of the bike order, I realized my child would outgrow the bike in no time, and had to return it to pick the next size. Support was extremely responsive and offered to DONATE the bike to the charity of our choice instead of returning it! How great is that? We received the new bigger bike in 2 days! Incredible bike and incredible support! I am recommending Guardian Bikes with absolutely no reserve.
United StatesA great bike for beginners
A great bike for beginners. I would recommend this bike for all the parents
