KHE 16 Inch BMX – Freestyle Bikes for Kids from 3'7"
16-inch BMX bikes are the ideal entry point for children with a height of approximately 110 to 130 cm – typically between 5 and 8 years old. At KHEbikes®, we offer particularly lightweight, child-friendly freestyle BMX bikes that are suitable for both initial riding practice and playful tricks.
The aluminum frames of our 16-inch models ensure low weight, making them easy to accelerate and control. Perfect for small hands, short legs, and lots of motivation on two wheels. Thanks to the typical BMX geometry, these bikes not only look cool but also offer plenty of freedom of movement for early maneuvers.

Why an Early Start in BMX is Beneficial
BMX riding enhances balance, motor skills, and self-confidence. Children learn playfully to move on two wheels, navigate curves, and handle the bike. An early start in the world of BMX makes the transition to larger wheels and advanced techniques significantly easier.
With over 35 years of experience as Germany's first BMX brand, we at KHEbikes know exactly what matters in children's BMX bikes. Directly from the manufacturer, with personal support and free returns.

My son is thrilled with the design of his BMX bike. After I had trouble assembling it (especially the brakes), I contacted KHEbikes. Absolutely fantastic, friendly, and fast service, which solved the problem! I'm truly thrilled and can only recommend KHEbikes! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My previous review was worse. The reason for this is that I've encountered a lot of poor providers in the past, and so I simply share my negative experiences. I was contacted immediately after my first review, which I personally thought was really great. It immediately showed that the customer is their top priority. A big thumbs up for that.
Great service, fast delivery, no problem exchanging. Top company!
Great bikes at fair prices and great customer service!
Very pleasant contact, I'm very impressed with the staff. The purchase process is easy, and the description is accurate. The order arrived very quickly, but unfortunately, there was some shipping damage, but it was replaced without any major problems.
Very friendly and excellent support. @KHEbikes - thank you very much
Thanks to excellent advice over the phone, we were able to order the right spare parts for our son's BMX bike. They assured us of prompt shipping, so he was able to happily use his bike again the following week. Many thanks to Mr. Stubenrauch for the great advice!
Over the years, we've had nothing but positive experiences with their products and service! Unfortunately, no race bikes or parts, which would make the product range perfect. Highly recommended!
Very friendly contact, excellent advice. Even a question about the assembly of the BMX bike I purchased was answered the same day (Sunday!). That's how you retain customers long-term. I certainly won't have ordered the last bike from you. 😊 Thank you very much.
Beautiful, robust bikes and absolutely top-notch customer service. Very helpful both by phone and email, and there's a solution for every issue! It's great to still have such great and positive shopping experiences every now and then. Thank you, dear KHEbikes team!
Very quick, uncomplicated help. My contact, Mr. Göring, was very nice.
Fast, competent, and friendly. Best service
the attention is good even if you have a problem they support you so that everything goes well
Despite the remote diagnosis, we received excellent advice. After a few emails and photos back and forth, the problem with the bike was identified, and we were able to fix it ourselves. Our son is incredibly happy to be able to ride a BMX again. Now that's what I call customer service! Very friendly, dedicated, and competent!
Top customer service, super clear homepage :)
Top-notch advice! Always happy to come back!
Super fast delivery, great customer service, and very satisfied with the BMX. Thank you very much!
Very friendly and very helpful. I contacted them via email and received a prompt response with good advice and a purchase recommendation. I'd be happy to come back.
