Early Rider Charger 12" (2021)

Early Rider Charger 12" - The start into cycling life couldn't be better

The English manufacturer Early Rider is our clear favourite, even for the smallest bikes. No one else takes care of children's needs with such competence and attention to detail. With 12-inch running wheels, the little ones can gain their first experience of mobility from the age of about 2 years. The term "running wheel" applies here in a double sense: both to the wheels and to the type of drive. Walking instead of pedalling is definitely the safest way to get a feeling for balance. With a minimum seat height of only 31 centimetres, the Charger 12" allows a very early start. The classic diamond construction is stable and will take whatever a toddler or their older sibling does to it. The noble brushed surface of the frame makes it clear how cleanly the material aluminium has been processed here. Fat, two-inch wide Vee Speedster tyres roll over all bumps with minimal resistance. They offer the comfort and stability that young riders need. With an internal cable guide, the frame is prepared for mounting a rear brake. The Ritchey Riser handlebar is specially designed for short reach mini V-brake levers. This is how playful cycling can be learned.
