Balance Bike Review
“If you’re in Australia or the UK, the Kidvelo Rookie 12 is a great choice. The Rookie 12 stacks up well against the competition, with good looks, smart design, safety features that Mom and Dad will appreciate, and a price that’s solidly in line with other 12” balance bikes on the market today. If you’re shopping for your child’s first balance bike, give the Kidvelo Rookie 12 serious consideration.
Pros:
A Real Bike that looks like Mum and Dads bike but for 2 year old plus.
Super Lightweight at 2.93kgs
Pneumatic (air-filled) tyres make for a safe, comfortable ride
Sloping top tube makes it easy to mount/dismount
Thoughtful safety features”

Key Features
Kid Specific Geometry
The Perfect fit gets your little one riding sooner, better, safer.
Kids don’t just need smaller bikes. They need different bikes. With all the right proportions. All kidvelo bikes are designed for kids, from the ground up.
Quick Adjust Seat
All Kidvelo bikes feature quick-adjust seat post clamps.
Seat height can be adjusted quickly, easily, and without tools. So when kids are ready for a higher seat, you can accommodate them in seconds.
Lightweight Design
At Kidvelo we believe that a lighter weight bike is a safer bike.
A lighter weight bike is easier to control. We think that’s a good thing. All Kidvelo frames and rigid forks are made of lightweight heat treated 6061 aircraft grade aluminium alloy.

The Perfect Green Machine
“My daughter chose the green Rookie 12 herself, and she absolutely loves it. The adjustable seat means she’ll be riding it for years, and it’s light enough for her to pick up on her own. The green colour makes it feel unique and special.”
Peter H. –
Grandson’s Favourite Colour
“My grandson’s favourite colour is green, so the Rookie 12 in green was a no-brainer. He was thrilled when he unwrapped it. The smile on his face as he zooms around on it is priceless. Excellent customer service from Kidvelo, too — fast shipping and helpful advice.”
Samuel K. –
Built for Adventure
“This green Rookie 12 goes everywhere with us — the park, the footpath, even on camping trips. It’s super light and easy to carry when my son gets tired, but most of the time he insists on riding. The bright green looks fantastic in every photo!”
Joan C. –
Outstanding Balance Bike
“The Rookie 12 in green is an absolute winner. The frame is tough, the design is clever, and the colour really makes it stand out. My 3-year-old has learned to balance so quickly on it. Kidvelo really nailed it with this bike.”
Drew J. –
Well Crafted Kids Bike
We love our Rookie 12 bike. We have the balance bike and our son loves the Neon Green colour as it really pops in the sun so it is easy to see him riding around the park. It’s a strong, well-crafted bike that will last through all of our kids. I highly recommend Kidvelo!
