“The Rookie 14 balance bike with its separate pedal kit was exactly what my grandson needed as he made the transition to a bigger bike. Gaining confidence with the bigger size before trying the pedals has made the process much easier.”

“I bought this bike a month ago, for my 5yo. It hasn't been heavily tested, but so far it seems quite well built and well designed. Setting it up was a bit more labourious than I'd hope, but maybe that's down to my lack of experience with bikes. A very good product overall.”

“The only complaint within a spotless bike would be the brake handles are quite stiff and far from the handlebars do smaller handed/younger children may struggle to reach them but kids grow at such a rate if you really want the best bike i would thoroughly recommend this bike!”

Hi Trevor, Thanks for taking the time to review the Rookie 14 and we are delighted you all like it. Regarding brake reach and tension, the good news is, it’s all fully adjustable. If you check out this page, it will show you what to do to make them easier to pull and closer, to dial it in for your child. Any problems, just drop us an email. https://kidvelobikes.co.uk/how-to-adjust-a-kidvelo-balance-or-pedal-bike/ . Best Wishes, Karen.

“My son started with the rookie 12 when he was just 11 months old and now progressed to the rookie 14 balance bike ready for the pedals to go on at age 2. Absolutely love kidvelo bikes, amazing design, so light in weight and my son loves the bold bright colours. Highly recommend to any parent/ rider. Smashing it again kidvelo!!”

“My 3 year old very specifically said he wanted a 'red bike like Elliott from E.T' He was previously used to the Strider Sport balance bike which was very light and easy for him to use. He's not quite ready for pedals so the Rookie 14 seemed the perfect in-between bike, so that when he's ready we can add the pedals. It also has brakes so he can get used to using them before the pedals are attached. It's lightweight and very striking to look at. My son was over the moon with it!”
