Weighing just 4.18kg, the lightweight AIRO 14” balance bike is a bigger bike that’s perfect for older, taller beginner riders or kids who have outgrown their first balance bike and need a bigger one.

Levitatingly light.
The AIRO handles like a dream thanks to its geometry and ultra-lightweight magnesium-alloy frame. Weighing in at just 4.18kg the AIRO 14 is both easy to ride and carry!
Made to glide.
Contoured into the frame, the grip-taped footrests allow the rider to rest their feet and freewheel with ease. Add to this the proper air-filled tyres, the AIRO 14 makes for smooth, thrilling riding experience.
Brake made for small hands.
Designed to be easy to pull for small hands, the specially designed TEKTRO brake lever requires little force to bring the AIRO to a safe stop. Thanks to our low maintenance drum brake, they’ll stay in control even on steeper trails.
Comfort is key.
The low step-through point makes hopping on off easy for any rider with the recommended inside leg of 40cm and above. Coupled with geometry specifically designed for young children, the AIRO 14” is comfortable and thrilling in equal measure.
Instantly boost your child's confidence
Balance bikes are the perfect way to introduce your child to the world of cycling and boost their confidence on two wheels before moving over to a pedal bike.

Frequently Asked Questions
How high should the seat be?
The seat height should be adjusted so when the child is sitting with both their feet flat on the ground they have a slight bend in their knees. For long distance on smooth ground the height can be slightly raised, for off roading the saddle should be slightly lower. The seat post diameter is approximately 2.5cm on AIRO.
Is AIRO 14" the right size for my child?
AIRO 14" is one size and includes an adjustable seat post which means it can grow as your child does. AIRO 14" suitability is not dependant on height or age but their inside leg measurement. It will accommodate inside leg measurements of 40cm to 53cm / 15.7" to 20.8” (approximately 3.5+ years).
What should the tyre pressure be?
Maintaining the correct tyre pressure will help to extend the life of your tyres, improve safety and ensure a smooth ride. Both the front and back tyres on the Hornit Airo should be inflated to 20-30 PSI (1.5-2.0 BAR).

This was purchased for one of the grandchildren.
The 12 inch version was slightly too small for her.
The bike was extremely easy to set up and it is extremely light and the rear brake functions very well.
She took to the bike and the colour straight away and is now able to balance very very well
The bike was easy to carry once she got fed up, but that is becoming less often and it won’t be long before she is peddling
Overall, extremely pleased!
