Overview
About this bike
If we want to inspire the next generation of riders, kids deserve better bikes. That’s why we took the same tech behind our world championship-winning bikes and combined it with proportional design to build the ultimate balance bike. We pored over every detail in order to achieve a ride quality that’s unprecedented in such a small size. We’re talking precision at every touchpoint—from 38% smaller diameter handlebar grips to a solid carbon layup. All aligned to create the ultimate first ride. Why? We believe the best ride starts with the same standards we have as adults: Proportional fit, quality materials, and the same tech we use for pros. - All-carbon frame, fork, handlebars, and wheels - Lightweight FACT 9r carbon frame - Carbon wheels with Rhythm Lite tires - 38% smaller diameter grips—a better grip for little hands - Low friction Body Geometry saddle, with a carrying handle for parents - Ground up design in the geometry
