The clause is missing a subject before try. Include I so the sentence has a clear subject and verb.

✓ Not only children but also adults use bikes every day.
The paired conjunction not only ... but also is needed to connect the two groups clearly. Use both parts of the pair.

✓ Adults use bikes every day, and most students use bikes to commute to school.
When referring to bikes and school in general, do not use the definite article the. Use bikes and commute to school. Most is also the appropriate quantifier when referring to the majority of students.
