Frequently Asked Questions
What Age Is A 12-Inch Balance Bike For?
Each balance bike will have its own age restrictions, but typically, a 12-inch balance bike is used for children aged two to five. This is the perfect size for them, with big enough wheels that can be used outdoors without adding too much weight that would make it tricky for them to steer and lift the bike.
Do I Need A Balance Bike With A Brake?
Typically, balance bikes do not come with brakes, especially if they are starter balance bikes for children aged 18 months or older. At this stage, your child does not need a brake, as they will likely not go very fast. However, as they grow and become more confident, you should consider switching them to a bike with a brake. This will show them how to use brakes and get them comfortable with slowing down with a brake as they move to larger bikes.

Seems easy to navigate and he picked it up quickly. He has never been on an e-scooter before. He was hoping for a faster speed, but 16km/h is fast enough! Looks sturdy but not bulky. A very nice looking e-scooter. The kick to start is a good safety feature.
First time buyer for online motorbike and was a little concerned however bike arrived in excellent condition. Customer service was also very good when we called to check on status
My son really enjoyed his crazy kart! its like almost everyday he never forgot to use it. . The battery took so long to ran out, it looks like its running for more than an hour with some rests in between, just enough time that my son gets tired. it's worth every penny spent on it! Highly recommended!
