Owl 20 inch 3-speed
As kids go further, ride bigger hills and pedal faster, Cleary developed the 3-Speed Owl.
What will damage our internally geared drive train? Nothing we can think of. It will offer a smooth transition through a wide gear range on every ride. Our hubs are sealed, so they're impervious to water and mud. Shift a gear to climb a hill. Shift a gear to pedal down the other side. Shift a gear to power away on the flats. All from a simple, self-contained internally geared hub.

Why no derailleur?
Derailleurs on many 20" wheeled bikes sit precariously close to the ground. If your child drops her bike, leans it against a wall, rides it through too tight of a space, puts it drive-side down in the trunk or backpedals after a shift, this can cause the derailleur or hanger to bend throwing the shifting out of adjustment.
3-Speed Sturmey Archer S-RF3 Internal Gear rear hub. Light alloy body, reliable and abusable. Internally geared hub offers a wider gear range than a single speed, while remaining simple to use and virtually maintenance free. Handlebar mounted trigger shifter. (Only Shift While not Pedaling) Gear range: 32 x 19T middle gear. Gear ratio with 25% gear reduction in lowest gear and 33% increase in top gear.
