The LVR workshop view

Alpha Silver, this time on a real big-kid bike. The Alpha Silver aluminium frame of the Precaliber 20 Freewheel comes with a rigid steel fork, 20-inch wheels with 32 spokes and a ProWheel 127 mm chainset whose 32-tooth chainring has a double guard. A single gear and no derailleur cable: the bike stays simple to maintain and your child can concentrate on balance and braking.

	Precaliber 16	Precaliber 20 Freewheel	Precaliber 20 7-speed
Stage	The independence bike	Transition with no gears	First gears
Frame / fork	Alloy / steel	Alpha Silver alloy / steel	Alpha Silver alloy / 35 mm fork
Reference bike	8.35 kg, 99 to 117 cm	9.45 kg, 114 to 132 cm	10.90 kg, 114 to 132 cm
What it means	Stabilisers possible	Lighter, nothing to adjust	More versatile, heavier

In other words: 9.45 kg, a single freewheel gear, two V-brakes on the handlebar and a kickstand fitted as standard. Trek presents it as the transition model after the stabiliser bike, for 6 to 8 year olds.

Weight matters a lot on a kids' bike: 9.45 kg is a large share of a 7-year-old's body weight. Every kilo saved is felt when setting off, on hills and when the bike has to be picked up. With no derailleur or suspension fork, the Freewheel keeps the advantage on this point.

The 2.25-inch Bontrager XR1 tyres, fitted to 32-spoke alloy rims, offer a good balance between efficiency on tarmac and grip on dirt tracks. They are well suited to the flat paths that skirt the lagoons or run along the Canal du Midi towards Fonseranes.

Which Precaliber should you choose?

Model	Wheels	Child's height	Gears / brakes	Weight
Precaliber 16	16 in	99 to 117 cm	1 speed, 2 V-brakes	8.35 kg
Precaliber 20 Freewheel	20 in	114 to 132 cm	1 speed, 2 V-brakes	9.45 kg
Precaliber 20 7-speed	20 in	114 to 132 cm	7 speeds, 2 V-brakes, 35 mm fork	10.90 kg
Wahoo 20 Path	20 in	114 to 132 cm	8-speed microSHIFT, 2 V-brakes	8.75 kg

Our take: at 9.45 kg, this 20-inch bike is 1.45 kg lighter than the 7-speed Precaliber 20. The Wahoo 20 Path goes down further still to 8.75 kg with 8 microSHIFT gears, for sportier riding.

LVR sizing advice

Trek gives a range of 114 to 132 cm, for 6 to 8 year olds. On a first 20-inch bike, it is best if your child can still touch the ground with the tips of both feet when seated. Come and try it with them in Béziers: we adjust the saddle height before you set off.

Size	20 inch
Child's height (cm)	114 to 132
Age given by Trek	6 to 8 years
Cranks (mm)	127
