FeaturesOur lightweight & durable aluminum Starlite frame is easier to pedal than steel. Starlite's swooping frame design has a purpose other than great looks: with 20" wheels this bike offers a low standover and low center of gravity for stable, secure riding and control. We've even increased the wheelbase length over our 20" Laser to offer even greater stability, security and comfort. Those attractively painted fenders keep the rain & mud off the bike AND the rider and look cute to boot. Our wheels are light and easy to pedal thanks to the lightweight alloy rims that are silver anodized for extra corrosion resistance. We build the Starlite wheels with 36 spokes in a 3-cross lacing pattern for a strong & durable wheel. Starlite's extra-plush, broad-based saddle features a suede-like brushed vinyl top that's grippy and keeps young riders from sliding around unsafely on the saddle top. Our soft and comfortable foam grips feature a smooth vinyl cover that is embossed and stitched to match the saddle & decal theme. The Starlite's full-length & full ring-wrap chainguard keep clothes & legs cleanly and safely out of the way of the chain. Our pedals offer a non-slip insert that keeps feet and shoes in full contact even when wet for safe & secure pedaling. Those wide Brooklyn Speedway tires offer a large contact patch for greater stability, with a smooth tread surface for easy rolling, and hold plenty of air volume for a more comfortable ride. Starlite's swept back handlebars aren't boys BMX bars painted a feminine color: they are specifically designed to be easy to reach and promote a comfortable, secure, and upright ride position. If a steel or alloy part is not painted or anodized, we protect it with a black electro-plating which enhances the corrosion resistance of that part. Black may not be the most traditional or obvious parts color choice for a girl's bike, but the black electro-plating finish won't scratch & flake as easily as pink or white paint will. Every Starlite offers a kickstand for parking that pride & joy up securely, and a safety bell to announce that she has arrived.
