12” Wheel Bikes
12" wheel bikes, explained.
12" wheel bikes are the very first step — balance bikes and first pedal bikes for children roughly 2 to 4 years old (height 85–100cm). At this age a balance bike is usually the better teacher: it builds the hard skill (balancing) before adding pedals.
Whichever route you choose, weight decides everything. Our lightest 12" bikes start at 3.45kg — light enough for an 18-month-old to steer and for you to carry home.
Sizing
Feet flat on the floor when seated. Inside leg from about 30cm for our lightest balance bikes.
Who it suits
12" wheels typically suit ages 2–4 — but height beats age every time. When in doubt, measure.
