My 3 year old son's been on a balance bike since he could walk an we figured it was about time to pedal. We got a 12" bike of an other manufacturer around which unfortunately did not fit due to a too high seat position.

So, when to buy a new bike, the difference of fun in riding a valuable bike can make, I looked for such and found EarlyRider in no time.

It turned out my boy just hit the min. leg length required for the belter/seeker 14. For the black saddle, the pedals and dirt track riding options we choose the seeker.

With his balance bike experience he managed to start and pedal alone within one weekend. The use of the handbrakes where no trouble at all (to avoid stoppies you might want so reset the front brake to lower force). With some practice we lifted the seat position so he can pedal more effective and after 10 days went to our local pump track the first time.

Pro: fast delivery, easy assembly, nice mini platform pedals, riding dirt tracks for extra fun, brake levers adjustable for small hands

Con: it might seem pricy but you truly get what you pay.

Absolutely fantastic bit of kit, my 4 year old has been on a balance bike since he was around 2 years old and mastered it to the point he didn't want to leave it (Couldn't understand why he needed pedals). We tried some cheaper bikes and he never took to them, never felt solid on it and ditched them within minutes.

I read good things about the seeker 14 and got hold of one. Within an hour he's away, feels at one with the bike and went full send. Super impressed, the balance of the bike and the light weight nature of it make it a perfect and has to be considered as the only option for first riders.

He doesn't want to put it down now and I couldn't be happier so thank you for making such a good range of bikes, when my son outgrows the 14 I'll be putting him up a size for sure. 👍🏼💪🏼
