They should not be treated as pocket bikes just because their size is smaller than the conventional ones. They can be mini bikes and they are manufactured for the younger group of riders. Pocket bikes have been a categorical name that has no reason to be messed up to any other minibike or kid bike. A kid bike is not a pocket bike.
