Priority Bicycle Start 16"
Details
THE PERFECT BICYCLE SO YOUR LITTLE ONE CAN START ROLLING WITH CONFIDENCE AND STYLE.
The Priority Start 16" is the premier low maintenance, belt drive bicycle for 3-7 year olds who are ready for their first "big kid" two-wheeler. Featuring a lightweight aluminum frame with freewheel construction, the single-speed Start 16" was developed to fill a gap in the market for children who start on a balance bike but find it difficult to ride with coaster/foot brakes since their instinct is to move their legs forward and backward while riding. You can have confidence this bicycle will last, be comfortable for your child, and keep their hands and clothing free of chain grease and grime. A composite belt guard, kickstand, and full reflector kit come standard on every bicycle.
- Free assembly - Although Priority states that their bikes come 95% assembled there are many other adjustments to be made. What if a rotor is bent? What if the wheels aren't true? What if its damaged in shipping?
- Every bike is assembled by me, Travis, and I've been doing this since 1986. I use Snap-On calibrated torque wrenches and the best tools available.
- Free disc brake bed-in. It's part of the assembly process. Disc brakes will perform better, last longer, and be quieter when they've been properly bed-in. You can read more about it by clicking HERE.
- 30-Day Test Ride - Please read about it and more awesome information by clicking HERE.
- Easy Returns - If for some reason you'd like to return your bike, you simply wheel it into the shop and I take care of it. If you buy it from them, you have to box it up (or pay to have it boxed), pay for shipping, wait for them to receive and inspect it, then wait for your refund.
- No shipping charges - It's included in the price. However, I can deliver it to you (Mondays) up to 50 miles. Price for delivery depends on distance and purchase price. Select delivery at checkout to see the price.
- You support a small, local business and keep your business local - You're buying your bike from me, and I'm a firm believer in building relationships with my customers. You deal with me - not an A.I. chat bot or somebody behind a computer.

Chains are the # 1 issue on bicycles. They get dirty, fall off, and they're at a perfect height for kids to grab and then get grease everywhere. Our rust-free and grease-free Gates Belt is cleaner, smoother, and doesn’t require maintenance. Also, it won’t snap off or break under the weight of a rider.
The freewheel rear hub allows kids to learn and embrace pedaling without a coaster brake that can halt their development. A coaster, or pedal-back brake, can be challenging as early riders are gaining leg strength and coordination. The freewheel rear hub let’s them feel the pedal power going forward, and if they push back, they won’t have a jarring stop.
Dual handbrake levers connected to smooth stopping v-brakes allow for a comfortable, confident ride. The levers are placed at a kid-friendly reach for their smaller hands.
Kids bikes get left on lawns with sprinklers, tossed in the back of cars, dropped, and any number of other things that happen with our little ones. The lightweight aluminum frame won’t rust, neither will the alloy wheels and stainless steel spokes. It’s a quality bike built to last long enough for sharing with siblings and friends.
It’s an awesome feeling when your kids are ready to ride with—and without— you. But road debris and sharp stones on bike paths can be a real bummer. Our puncture-resistant tires help protect against unwanted flats.
Learning to ride a bike can be intimidating for some kids. We aimed to make our fit comfortable and approachable for young, growing riders so they would be excited to hop on and embrace the adventure!
