Frequently asked questions

What age are Ampd Bros electric bikes suitable for?

Ampd Bros electric bikes are generally designed for kids aged 7 and up, depending on the model and the their height, confidence, and experience with riding. They don't necessarily need to have experience with an e-bike, even riding a pedal bike will help them with their core stability and balance needed for an e-bike. However, even the most seasoned bike riders will need to weather the learning curve that comes with an electric bike, so your child also needs to be able to focus and have enough attention span to properly learn the basics of e-riding. We recommend always checking the recommended age and size guide for each e-bike before buying one.
