Thread: How big?

My nephew has a dirt bike and it looks way too small for him. He looks to have outgrown it by a couple of years. How do you know what size they need? I'm guessing they should be able to touch the ground when sitting on the seat, but what else?

Most people that I know say you should touch the ground but just barely, as in tippy toe. How old is he and how big/small is he?

This quickie note might help, I was talking to a friend of mine (adult though) who is trying to figure out the same thing for him (and he is on the short side).

How to Choose a Dirt Bike

He is 11 and I don't know exactly how tall he is but he is average height for his age. Thanks for the tips. The bike he has right now is too small as he hunches over it.
