Dawes Blowfish 18" Kids Bike, Lightweight Alloy Frame, Single Speed in Lime Green

Dawes Blowfish 18" Kids Bike in Lime Green

The Dawes Blowfish is an 18 inch kids bike for children who have outgrown smaller wheels and want something light enough to handle on their own. At 9.4kg, with an 11 inch alloy frame, it is a bike a young rider can lift over a kerb, wheel through the side gate and steer without a fight. Lime green paint makes it easy to spot at the park, too.

Why a Light 18 Inch Kids Bike Rides Better

Plenty of children's bikes are heavy steel from head tube to hubs, and a child carrying several extra kilos simply tires faster, wobbles more and gives up sooner. Dawes takes the opposite route. The Blowfish is built around a Dawes Alloy 6061 Junior frame, rolls on alloy single wall rims with 14G spokes and 28H nutted alloy hubs, and stops with alloy V-brakes. A steel unicrown fork adds strength up front, while a single 16T freewheel keeps things simple. Less weight to push and nothing to shift means more energy goes into actually riding.

What Young Riders Will Notice

• 6061 Alloy Frame: keeps the complete bike at 9.4kg, so lifting, turning and pushing uphill feel manageable for smaller arms and legs.
• Junior Reach Brake Levers: alloy levers sit close to the grips, letting small hands pull the V-brakes firmly and stop with confidence.
• Single Speed Drivetrain: a 36T chainring and 16T freewheel give one steady gear, with no shifters to confuse a newer rider.
• Cushioned Junior Saddle: a padded seat on a 27.2mm alloy seat post keeps longer laps of the park comfortable.

Blowfish 18 Specification

Made for Park Paths and Family Rides

Weekend loops of the park, rides to a friend's house and slow pedals beside parents on a dog walk all suit the Blowfish's easy handling. Because it is light, children can wheel it out of the shed themselves, which tends to mean more rides and fewer excuses.

FAQs

Q: Will the Blowfish stand up to everyday knocks and scrapes?

A: Dawes describes the alloy wheels as robust and long lasting, and the 6061 alloy frame is paired with a steel unicrown fork for strength at the front. Regular checks of tyre pressure, brakes and bolts, as with any bike, keep it riding well.

Q: How much assembly does the bike need?

A: It arrives approximately 85% assembled, so a few final steps are needed before the first ride. Typically that means fitting parts such as the handlebar, pedals and saddle, then checking the brakes and tyres are correctly set.

Q: How quickly will the bike reach me?

A: We deliver to mainland UK addresses (with tracking). Delivery options, costs and estimated times are shown at checkout and in our Shipping Policy.
