Meet The Bonsai
Closer look
The full story
No composite. No compromise
Birch is a great material. It has a superior strength to weight ratio preventing little ones from toppling under the weight of their own bikes. It’s splinter resistant (of course) and features a pleasing knot free smooth grain.
Heirloom beauty of wood, precision and durability of aluminium
Unlike The Lite and Classic, the other wooden bikes in the stable, the Bonsai features a precision aluminium finishing kit. We collaborated closely with Ritchey Logic to produce really a small and really good stem and handlebar combo.
Tom Ritchey, its indefatigable president and lead designer, is one of the pioneers credited with the invention of mountain biking, amongst other innovations. We have collaborated for over 10 years, producing the best kids specific components to elevate our bikes.
Roll model
By specifying such high grade wheel sets, we are able to justify investing weight in tyres that provide the safety and performance that make all the difference, without handing them a weight penalty.

This is one beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Lots of adjustment for for the little one as they grow.
Again it’s Stunning!!
Feels like it should cost $500-$700
Works great easy to put together and the kiddo loves it.
so beautiful and fantastic
We are absolutely thrilled with this balance bike. The build quality is outstanding and feels very premium right from the start. What really stands out is the handlebar design, which is inspired by a mountain bike – it not only looks great but also provides excellent control.
The overall design is simply stunning and definitely an eye-catcher. But beyond the looks, it performs just as well: our 22-month-old son is already riding it very confidently, which really shows how well it supports early balance and coordination.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a high-quality, stylish, and durable first bike for their child.
Ordered for my 18m old but I think I also ordered it for myself. Maaaaan is this bike gorgeous. It screams quality and uniqueness. My boy is a tad short but I knew that when ordering. He'll be ready for it in the spring/summer and I'm sure he'll turn heads at our parks. After seeing the quality in this bike, I will seriously consider ER's bigger bikes for him as he grows. Very happy with this purchase and can't wait to see him shred.
The quality, sturdy-construction, and beauty is breathtaking.
Best little bike
Nice unique bikes. I wanted something a little different but still useful in the development of my twin grandkids. This fit the bill.
Beautiful simple design
Awesome looking bike, it adds a tangy flavor to any background it’s introduced into. And my boy loves it
Packaging….the front wheel scratch the frame.
Everything else⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The kid its loving it!
Thanks
Piece of art.
Fun to ride.
The bike matches our expectations, wooden bike frame is really nice and if good quality.
Lovely bike for the boy. Well made and gets lots of positive comments. Minor point is that the valve caps were missing. Also my two year old has unusually long legs, so this may not last him as long as I would like, but will be pleased that he has memories of this as his first ever bike.
me parece una bicicleta sublime, lo bonita es, la construcción de la misma, la facilidad del montaje, los detalles que la elevan a un nivel superlativo. Muy gratamente sorprendido!!
Bought it for my son for his birthday.
Great bike.
It would be nice if it had some sort of breaking system when going downhill/ slopes.
My 2 year old son absolutely loves this bike.
Top quality bike
Ordered for my Son's second birthday present. Delivered within a few days from ordering. Beautiful product, very well crafted and distinctive. It could be hung on the wall as a piece of art once he's grown out of it. Only thing I would say is that he's still a tiny bit small for the bike (and he's fairly typical height for a 2 year old and has an inside leg measurement equal to the minimum specified), however he still seems to get enjoyment from merely walking it around and will soon grow into it. Highly recommended, particularly if looking for something a bit more niche.
Literally just took the bike out of it's packaging box and it looks amazing but, much like the review posted by Mike on Apr 06, 2016 the seat tube glue is either missing entirely or has not bonded with the metal seat tube, leaving it spinning inside and easily removal from the wood. Sadly I'll be sending it back as it really can't be used like this :(
Absolutely beautiful design but it has too many issues.
Firstly, the seatstay is wide, so it's easily scratched when your child puts the bike down.
Secondly, I noticed the rear wheel being loose despite axle and all bolts being tight, and it appears bearings having no play; the design needs some redesigning similar to the "Lefty".
Lastly, seat tube glue totally delaminated from metal seat tube, leaving it spinning inside and easily removal from the wood.
I would say the bike had between 15-20 uses; I am extremely disappointed.
As a dealer for high end Italian Superbikes, I wanted a special balance bike for my daughter and this is perfect, Its well built and is as pretty as some of my stock! Well played
I bought the Bonsai for my friends son for Christmas. It looks great in the photo's but it's even better in reality. I was amazed by how beautiful it was. The detailing is outstanding and the wooden frame is something else. I even considered keeping it and putting it on display alongside my restored vintage motorcycles, I may yet do that, but it will mean another purchase as the wee man will be awfully upset if Santa doesn't deliver. Well done Easy Rider - you rightly deserve to feel proud of this fantastic and robust design.
The Bonsai is a masterpiece of design! It looks really great and the swinging back arm makes it unique.
The seatpost can be adjusted stepless and the handlebar is comfortable and secure. The first test rides from my son were very promising and he opened his eyes wide and is overjoyed.
