2022 Trek Kickster 12 inch Balance Bike
Trek Kickster 12 is designed to get your little one balancing on a two wheeler with confidence. Balance bikes are hugely popular because they work.
Designed to be a memory-maker for balance the Kickster will help your child to become confidence on two wheels ready to progress to a more mature bike. The Kickster is so called because it has no pedals so your child will kick to move the bike.

The robust frame means the Kickster can stand up to the abuse it may be put through and still be fit for handing down to younger siblings when the time arrives.
The lightweight aluminium frame makes the bike easy to move and super easy step through design avoids that unbalancing getting on and off the bike.
