HERO Geometry
A comfortable riding position is key both on the flats and the uphills. This translates into a geometry that is optimised to allow a leaned-in position and a narrow Q-factor to cater to children’s narrower hips. HERO's lower handlebar position offers more stability, balance and control making it quicker and easier to learn.

Why choose HERO
Market leading quality & extraordinary value
Our goal was to create beautiful, reliable and great value bikes that spark joy and build confidence. No stone was left unturned in our quest to make the HERO range one of the lightest, highest-quality, and most affordable on the market.
Bikes kids will love to ride
We know parents want the best for their kids. We pored over the details (crank lengths, stand over height, wheel-base, Q-factor, frame geometry and riding position) so you don’t have to. The HEROs are designed for comfort and supreme handling. They also happen to be beautiful to look at – giving children the confidence to ride in style.
Seriously lightweight
A lighter bike is easier to learn on and means your child will be happy to ride further than on a heavier bike. At 8.82kg the HERO is among the lightest 24” bikes in the market. The ‘leaned-in’ geometry makes it easier to pedal uphill than bikes with a more upright geometry, making for a more enjoyable riding experience.
Lifetime warranty
We stand by the top quality of our bikes. This 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. This gives you ultimate peace of mind over their safety, durability and all round value. Visit our 'Warranty Information' page for more details.
"In a highly competitive market, the HERO really does stand out as a kids’ bike that delivers an exceptionally high spec at a great price. The dimensions are spot on, making it easy for kids to handle and improve their cycling skills."
Explore HERO 24"
Perfectly proportioned frame.
A comfortable riding position is key both on the flats and the uphills. This translates into a geometry that is optimised to allow a leaned-in position and a narrow Q-factor to cater to children’s narrower hips. The lower handlebar position offers more stability, balance and control making it quicker and easier to learn.
Child-friendly brakes, bars and grips
We use short-reach, adjustable brake levers to make it easier for children with small hands. We also use narrow child-friendly handlebars and contoured grips for improved handling and control.
Maximising efficiency
Given that so many children learn on balance bikes, they are ready for a comfortable, sportier riding position. Our riding position and crank lengths and gearing are all designed for maximum efficiency as we want children to love their HEROs as much as we loved designing them.
Shifting made easy
The MicroSHIFT Acolyte shifter takes the learning curve out of changing gears. Designed to be as simple and intuitive as possible: index finger makes it harder, thumb makes it easier. Add in a crystal-clear gear indicator, microSHIFT’s signature light yet positive action, and enough gear range to climb any obstacle; its perfect for children using gears for the first time.

- LLaurenReviewingHERO 16" Kids Pedal BikeI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars7 minutes agoFantastic first bike
We started on the Airo 12" when my son was only 18 months old, moved on to the bigger airo when he was 3 and there was no question about buying the HERO 16". The value for money and amazing customer service was a no brainer.
The new bike was out of the box, with a quick set up and he had learnt to ride it in 15 minutes. All of our friends and school mums have commented how confident he is at 4 years old riding to and from school everyday. He never stops asking to go out on his cool blue bike!
