The Different Types of Engines
The engine is a crucial element to consider when purchasing a kids gas quad. There are two main types of engines: 2-stroke (2T) and 4-stroke (4T) engines.
2-Stroke Engines (2T)
2T engines are generally lighter and offer better acceleration. They are ideal for beginners who need an easy-to-handle quad. However, they consume more fuel and require a mixture of oil and gasoline.
4-Stroke Engines (4T)
4T engines are quieter and more fuel-efficient. They are also more durable and require less maintenance. They are recommended for more experienced children who can handle a more powerful quad.
For children aged 3 to 5, a 2T engine is often preferable. You can discover our selection of quads for this age range here.
Wheel Size
Wheel size is another important factor to consider. Wheels can vary in size from 6" to 8". Here are some tips for choosing the right wheel size based on your child's age and size:
- 6": Ideal for children aged 3 to 5. These wheels are perfect for quads intended for toddlers, offering great stability.
- 7": Suitable for children aged 6 to 8. These wheels offer a good balance between stability and maneuverability.
- 8": Recommended for children aged 9 to 12. These wheels are larger and provide better grip for more challenging terrains.
For children aged 6 to 10, we recommend checking out our selection of quads with 7" wheels here.
Engine Displacement
Engine displacement determines the power of the engine. Common displacements for kids gas quads are 49cc, 110cc, 125cc, and 150cc. Here's how to choose the displacement based on your child's age and experience level:
- 49cc: Perfect for children aged 3 to 5. These quads are light and easy to handle.
- 110cc: Ideal for children aged 6 to 8. They offer moderate power, ideal for children who are gaining confidence.
- 125cc: Suitable for children aged 9 to 12. These quads are more powerful and offer better performance.
- 150cc: Recommended for teenagers. These quads are powerful and require good control.
For teenagers, we have a selection of 150cc quads available here.
Type of Brakes
Brakes are essential for your child's safety. There are two main types of brakes: mechanical disc brakes and hydraulic disc brakes.
Mechanical Disc Brakes
Mechanical disc brakes are simpler and less expensive. They are ideal for quads intended for younger or beginner children.
Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Hydraulic disc brakes offer better performance and greater durability. They are recommended for more experienced children or for more powerful quads.
For children aged 3 to 5, mechanical disc brakes are often sufficient. You can find our selection of quads for this age range here.
Clutch
The clutch is an important element to consider, especially for younger children. An automatic clutch is often preferable for beginners, as it makes driving easier and reduces the risk of stalling.
For children aged 6 to 10, an automatic clutch is recommended. You can check out our selection of quads with an automatic clutch here.
Seat Height
Seat height is crucial for your child's comfort and safety. A seat that is too high can make riding difficult and dangerous. Here are some tips for choosing the right seat height:
- For children aged 3 to 5, a seat height of 40 to 45 cm is ideal.
- For children aged 6 to 8, a seat height of 45 to 50 cm is recommended.
- For children aged 9 to 12, a seat height of 50 to 55 cm is appropriate.
For teenagers, a seat height of 55 to 60 cm is often necessary. You can find our selection of quads for teenagers here.
Conclusion
Choosing the ideal kids gas quad for your little adventurer requires considering several factors, including the engine, wheel size, engine displacement, type of brakes, clutch, and seat height. By following these tips, you can be sure to make the right choice for your child.
