I couldn’t be more excited about this giveaway! This fall Kate got really good at riding her two-wheeler… and then it broke. A new one is at the top of her Christmas list, and thanks to Performance Bike, her wish is going to be granted!
Performance Bicycle has long been a best-selling brand in the world of specialty bikes for serious cyclists, and this year they are introducing their line specially made for kids. They’ve got everything from trikes and balance bikes (have you heard of this? If not, check it out! I bought a balance bike for Sam for Christmas because I think the concept is so ingenious) to 24″ mountain bikes… and everything in between.
Their focus is quality and safety. Jim Thompson, chief executive officer of Performance Inc., says “We put the same care and craftsmanship into the development and assembly of our new kids bikes as we put into a $5,000 road bike.”
This resonated with me, because when I started researching bikes for Kate a few months ago, my first inclination was to look for a used one. She has only had hand-me-down bikes in the past, and they have worked out fine (until the last one finally bit the dust). But the more I read, the more important I thought it was to get her a new bike. She’s at the age when she will be riding her bike hard and putting it through a lot – she needs something stable, and she needs to be able to rely on the brakes (please God, do not let her ride down hills with no hands the way her mother did).
As you can see, I am very impressed with Performance Bike. But I haven’t even told you the best part!
Performance Bike ships a “Bike-in-a-Box” – which means the bike shows up on your doorstep fully assembled. *Cue the Hallelujah Chorus*
We want you to try out Performance Bike too! One lucky winner will choose from these two 20″ bikes, ideal for kids six to eight years old.

My son would get this. A new bike is on his Christmas list. He’s incredibly rough on bikes with his tricks and constant riding, so I’d be interested to see if this one could hold its own. None of the bikes we’ve bought him so far have held up.
I get your emails
I would love to win the bike for my son. He is 110% boy and is always trying to keep up with the older kids!
I have a timid 6 year old who is afraid to try a 2 wheller….maybe a nice new one would help excite her!

My son would love a new bike…and I would love it to come fully assembled!
My son desperately needs a new bike because he’s outgrown his bike with training wheels. This would be perfect to teach him how to ride without training wheels.

I would give it to my 8 year old…a joyful boy who has a big heart and loves to read and play with his brothers.
I would give this bike to my 6-year-old daughter. Her bike was run over (she was not anywhere near it at the time, thank the Lord!), and so now she doesn’t have one. This would be a great gift for her.

I would give this bike to my nephew.
This would be amazing. My son really wants a bike, but it is not in our budget this year because we are doing an international adoption. We have a friend who is giving us a hand me down for our middle son, but our oldest would be so excited to get this! Awesome giveaway!

I would give this bike to my youngest son. He loves to ride his bike (even in the snow that we recently had). He could use a new bike as his knees are hitting his handle bar. He would be so excited to get a new bike!
