Frog Bikes Frog 61
Frog 61 Lightweight Kids' Bike
The 24-inch hybrid Frog 61 kids' bike is the ideal multi-purpose geared bike, suitable for 8-10-year-olds. This premium hybrid children's bike has a lightweight, sturdy aluminium frame, weighing 9.05kg making the bike easy to manoeuvre on roads, pavements, towpaths and forest trails. It comes with Kenda small block eight tyres for maximum stability and grip, full-length mudguards and the option to attach a pannier rack to the frame, for transporting school books and sports equipment.The Frog 61 kids' bike is equipped with age-specific components, including a quick-release child-specific saddle for the perfect riding position and FrogFit Technology® youth-specific 8-speed gear shifters with short lever travel and ultraslick cabling making changing gear and undulating rides a breeze. The bike also comes with Tektro brakes with small, easy-to-reach brake levers, which means better control and improved confidence for young riders. And, our patented Frog cranks, for more effortless pedalling, which reduces the distance between the pedals increasing efficiency and comfort for children.
The Frog 61 is designed for longevity and has been optimised to help maximise the lifetime of the bike for a growing child. It offers a lower bracket position to ensure a safer more ergonomic riding experience, which also allows for a greater leg-length range to be accommodated, perfect for growing legs. And the handlebar height can be adjusted within a 40mm range, as a child grows - making it a great investment!
All new Frog frame
Frog have given their bikes a new lightweight makeover with the Frog 61. In addition to making the frame lighter, the bottom bracket has been lowered so feet can touch the ground easier and the fork steerer tube has been lengthened to give more adjustment at the handlebars.
FrogFit Technology® Cranks
Children's hips are smaller and putting them on a bike with adults size cranks will lead to the feet being further apart that the hips - a very unnatural position to ride in, whilst putting strain on the growing muscles and joints. Research showed the need for a reduction in the hip-pedal triangle so Frog introduced the reduced q-factor in their patented shortened cranks for more efficient pedaling (20% increase of efficiency in the lab).
FrogFit Technology® Shifter
The new FrogFit Technology® Shifter reduces the distance the lever has to travel by 65% over the previous lever, bringing a major improvement to Frog bikes. Smaller children can now shift to lower gears more easily and without looking down, allowing them to focus better on the road ahead and on having fun on the bike!
FrogFit Technology® Brake Levers
Smaller hands have a smaller reach. Frog's ergonomics-led design puts the brake lever closer to the handlebar while allowing for sufficient space for the index finger to reach the gear shifter. Being able to comfortably reach the brake and the gear shifter makes Frog bikes easier to handle and safer for children to ride.UK delivery
If your item is in stock and ordered before 12pm, we will do our best to despatch your order the day you place it. In busy times we tell you how long it will take us to process it.
The above does not apply to bikes, which we have to assemble and inspect before repacking for dispatch. Typically we try to have bike orders dispatched within 3-5 days, but in busier times it may take longer. In those cases we'll let you know of longer than expected delivery times.
Please bear in mind that we are closed on Wednesdays, so no items will be dispatched then.
Free postage over £40
For small items we use Royal Mail's 48 service which has a delivery time of typically 2-3 days from dispatch; though you do have the option to upgrade to 24 which is generally next-day from dispatch if you require your order sooner. Please note in some cases the item will need to be signed for, so please provide an address where someone will be in.
Orders of over £40 will qualify for free standard postage with Royal Mail 48. This may exclude certain bulky or awkward items which will be calculated automatically at the basket screen.
Bike shipping
When we send out a larger parcel such as a bike or trailer we use a next-day courier - usually either DPD or Parcelforce.
For these reasons please supply us with a delivery address where there will be someone in to sign for your parcel. If there is nobody in when the couriers call, they will leave a card. You can then phone them to arrange delivery for another day or collect your goods from your local depot (a photo ID with proof of address will be required).
How will my bike be delivered?
We fully assemble, safety check and inspect every bike as though you were going to ride it away from our showroom.
However, to get it back into a box suitable for a courier to handle, we have to remove the pedals, handlebar and usually the front wheel - so some minor reassembly is required when the bike is delivered to you.
Please bear in mind that you might need a 15mm spanner for the pedals (adult's bikes generally do not come with pedals included, so you may not need to worry about this), and 4mm, 5mm and 6mm allen/hex keys for the reassembly.
Outside the UK
Since Brexit it is no longer feasible for our website to have permanent shipping prices for international delivery. Instead, if there is an item you are interested in, please Contact Us with a full delivery address and we will quote for delivery.
All the prices on our website and catalogue are in pounds sterling and are inclusive of VAT, but VAT will be removed for international orders. Please bear in mind that you will likely have to pay your country's taxes, import duties and associated courier handling fees for any items.
