LIFETIME WARRANTY
HERO’s are designed to last a lifetime which is why we offer a free lifetime warranty on the frame and forks to the original owner for as long as they own the bike. Visit our 'Warranty Information' page for more details.
The Hornit Hero is a great bike for the transition from a balance bike to a pedal bike. The geometry and components make it low weight, easy to manoeuvre and should mean minimal maintenance.
A high-quality first 'proper' bike that smooths out the tricky transition from balance bike to pedals.
With a competitive price, low weight, innovative features and some great colour choices, the HERO certainly appears to be in keeping with the excellent AIRO balance bike and shows that Hornit is serious about making quality kids bikes.

Frequently Asked Questions
You can add these as additional extras when you buy the bike. If purchased, the kickstand will come fitted to your bike already. The front and rear mudguards will come loose in the box. To fit them you will need to follow our step-by-step instructions which can be found by following the link found in the 'Mudguards Information' link at the top of the page.
Universal stabilisers can be fitted to HERO, but it is not what we recommend or stock. If your little one is 30 to 48cm then we would recommend the AIRO balance bike instead of stabilisers.

- JAJoseph A.Verified BuyerReviewingHERO 24" Bike ("EX-DISPLAY")I recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoGreat Second Bike!
I bought this bike for my rapidly growing 6 year old son. It is an little bit of a "stretch" in comparison to his previous bike which he was much too big for. However, he is enjoying the rollability of the bigger wheels and using the gears on gradients or speedier sections and I am certain this bike will build his cycling confidence, competence and fitness over the next couple of years. Great to have the belt transmission for ease of function and cleaning. Had the spent 30 mins adjusting the front brake which was rubbing when first purchased but otherwise a pleaded owner.

My granddaughter loved the bike.
- ERElizabeth R.Verified BuyerReviewingHERO 20" Pedal Bike ("EX-DISPLAY")I recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoBrilliant first geared bike for kids
This bike is so well thought out for kids.
it has a simple to understand gear system - 3 gears on a hub, meaning you can change gear whilst stationary. It's a great way to introduce kids to gears.
instead of a chain there's a belt drive - no grease or oil to worry about.
The components are top quality and well put together, totally recommend this bike.
Added to this is Hornit's impeccable customer service.
Many thanks for getting my child out and about on their first geared bike.
