▲X-mini Push Bike

Designed for children aged 2-5, the X-mini push bike is designed with adjustability to its frame angle, handlebar distance and saddle height, to have the most suitable riding position and give kids the best riding experience. The adjustable wheelbase is the key innovation of the X-mini. When the wheelbase is adjusted to a shorter setting, the bike provides better steering flexibility. When the wheelbase is adjusted to a longer setting, the bike provides a better riding stability when you accelerate straight. This makes it fun for children who are trying to ride a bike for the first time. Sporting a streamlined exterior and weighting at 2470g, the aluminum frame is CNC machined and can be easily folded to carry and storage. Patented in over 30 national countries, the safety of the X-min is further assured by the EN-71, ASTM F963-11, CPSIA and other certifications.
