Kidvelo Bikes UK Premium quality bikes that are affordable & for varying abilities. Ages 18 mths - 9 yrs. We may be a new brand, but we aren’t new to the industry.

Kidvelo Bikes specialise in high-quality, lightweight balance bikes that convert into pedal bikes, offering a seamless transition for young children learning to ride. Kidvelo® Bikes is a new speciality designer and manufacturer of kid’s balance bikes. Anthony and Nicole Kotarac in Australia, alongside Gary and Karen Wood in the UK, spent 10 years distributing balance bikes in their respective countries. Years of teaching kids to ride, racing toddlers, and time spent with riders and their families gave us the know-how to design exactly what the kids need. By putting all the lessons learned over those years, into designing the perfect balance bikes, in 2019, we started work on Kidvelo - our next-generation design of balance bikes. We took what worked, removed what didn’t, and created a bike that does the job, superlight, robust and durable, designed to fit through years of a child’s growth. Family is at the heart of our small business and our children the test riders. Our aim is to provide top-quality bikes straight to our customers at affordable prices. With a small team, we keep costs down, quality high, and exceptional customer service. Kidvelo scrutinizes and purposefully selects every tube, angle, weld, and component on their bike line to ensure a balanced, responsive ride for every kid. Our balance bikes offer the most comfortable riding position. Super-light bikes enable kids to ride with less effort and manoeuvre the bike with ease and greater control. Threadless sealed headsets, kid-specific saddles, small-diameter grips, handlebars, protective sealant under lead-free paint to prevent dents, dings, and rust, and withstand the use and abuse that kids are well known for. All this comes in a brightly coloured, lightweight aluminium frame so kids can fall in love with biking just as you did.

Most parents buy for age. The smarter move is to judge their ability and then measure their inseam.

A well-fitted convertible bike feels easier to control now, then grows with your child into a pedal bike later.

Designed to teach your child the balance required to then go on and pedal - all on one bike!

Kidvelo Convertible Bikes not only save you money, but also make learning to ride easier on the same familiar bike.

One bike, two learning stages, less guesswork.

Is your first bike set up right?

Small fit checks make a huge difference. Lower the seat so both feet touch the ground, allowing for a bend in the knee.

This enables the child to stride along and learn to balance the bike.

A convertible bike can save parents from buying two bikes to teach their child to ride.

Measure inseam first, choose the right Rookie size; 14" or 18"- then switch from balance to pedals on the same frame when they’re ready.

Not every parent spends their weekends tinkering with bikes.
So it's normal to feel a little unsure about building a kid's bike or adding pedal kits.

Kidvelo has you guys covered. We design our bikes to be assembled by adults with NO bike-building experience.

Our bikes are easy to build, easy to maintain, and you have us to support you, if you need a little help.

Is your child’s bike helping confidence, or fighting it?

For many children with SEND, learning to ride a bike is something they show interest in later than their peers.

By the time they hit 4 or 5 years old, balance bikes are too small and you're left with stabilisers as an option.

Unless, of course, you have chosen a Kidvelo Rookie 18 Balance to Pedal Bike. Designed for kids aged 5 - 8 years + to learn balance and then progress to pedals, all on the same bike.

Everyone can learn to ride a bike..

If you have a Kidvelo Rookie Convertible Balance to Pedal Bike, the question soon becomes,
" When do we fit the pedals onto it?"

As soon as your child is ready!

When your child can confidently balance with their feet up on the footrest for about 10 seconds, and still steer and brake, it's time!

Then let the bike work its magic.
Don't forget to record the first pedal strokes. It is as exciting as their first steps. We love to see them too 😍

Choosing a bike with stabilisers can backfire.

Stabilisers do not help your child learn to ride a bike.

In our experience, they often knock a child's confidence, as the child feels unstable and has learned no balance.

Balance First, Pedals Second.

What should you check first?

Before buying a starter bike, check the inseam, not the age label.

If the fit is wrong, learning feels harder straight away.
A bike that fits now is easier to control, easier to enjoy, and far more likely to get used.

Use inseam to find your Kidvelo and trust us, we have the rest of the bikes' geometry spot on!

Rookie 12 - Inseam 30-48 cm
