Find the Right Stacyc by Age, Size and Speed

Stacyc makes five bike models sized for riders ages 3 to 12. Each one runs on a quiet electric motor with selectable speed modes -- no gas, no clutch, no pedals. Use the model breakdown below to match the right bike to your rider's age, weight, and skill level.


Stacyc Model Comparison -- Which Size Is Right?

Not sure which model fits your rider? The 12eDRIVE is the right starting point for kids ages 3 to 5 under 75 lbs. The 16eDRIVE and 16eDRIVE Elite step up in speed and frame size for riders ages 5 to 8. The 18eDRIVE and 20eDRIVE are built for older kids ages 8 to 12 who are ready for more power and a bigger bike. When in doubt, size up -- kids grow into the larger models faster than you would expect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What size Stacyc bike is right for a 5 year old?

A: For most 5 year olds the 16eDRIVE is the right fit -- it is built for riders ages 5 to 7 weighing up to 75 lbs. If your child is already on the larger side or has prior balance bike experience, the 16eDRIVE Elite is worth considering -- it handles riders up to 115 lbs with a more powerful 36V motor. When in doubt, size up so the bike lasts longer before they outgrow it.

Q: What is the difference between the Stacyc 16eDRIVE and 18eDRIVE?

A: The 16eDRIVE is built for riders ages 5 to 7 weighing up to 75 lbs, with a 16" wheel and a 20V motor. The 18eDRIVE is a larger model designed for ages 8 to 10 weighing up to 115 lbs, with an 18" wheel and a 36V motor for more power and range. Both include three adjustable speed modes. If your child is between 7 and 8 and approaching the weight limit of the 16, the 18eDRIVE is the right next step.

Q: How long does a Stacyc bike battery last?

A: Most Stacyc bikes run 30 to 60 minutes per charge depending on terrain, rider weight, and speed mode. Charge time is approximately 2 hours via a standard household outlet. Need a replacement battery or adapter? Browse Stacyc Accessories.
