A first bike made for dirt, not just the driveway. The Dirt Hero is a scaled-down enduro machine for little mountain bikers, with slack, low and stable geometry, a real hydraulic disc brake and grippy tyres to build confidence on the trail.

Highlights

• Off-road balance bike built like a scaled-down enduro bike
• Supplied as the 14" wheel version; the frame and fork take 12" or 14" wheels via flip-chip dropouts
• Magura hydraulic rear disc brake with a child-safe rotor guard
• Brake lever with reach adjustment for small hands
• Kenda Booster 2.2" pneumatic tyres for grip and cushioning
• 6061-T6 aluminium frame and fork; 4.6kg claimed bike weight

Real brake, real tyres

The Magura hydraulic rear disc brake gives more braking power and needs less hand strength than V-brakes, and the rotor is covered by a child-safe rotor guard. The brake lever has reach adjustment so small hands can get to it. Kenda Booster 2.2" pneumatic tyres add grip and cushion bumps for a smoother ride.

Grows with your child

The frame and fork use flip-chip dropouts that take 12" or 14" wheels. This listing is the 14" wheel version; the 12" wheel set is not included. Kids Ride Shotgun suggests the 12" setup for ages 2 to 4 years (minimum inseam 345mm) and the 14" setup for ages 3 to 5 years (minimum inseam 388mm).

Compatibility & fit

• 14" setup: suggested age 3 to 5 years, minimum suggested inseam 388mm, minimum saddle height 368mm.
• Measure your child's inseam before choosing between the 12" and 14" versions.

When it needs a tune-up or a brake bleed, our workshop can look after it as a separate workshop service.
