Product Overview
If your young ripper has some experience on a balance bike, is a little taller and/or is familiar with riding a STACYC Stability Cycle and needs a larger platform than the 12" model, the 16eDrive is for them!
The upgraded motor adds noticeable low-end power and torque providing more aggressive riding across more varied terrain.
Get them rolling in the non-powered mode while they learn to push and balance the bike then coast, too. Don't be surprised by how much they'll enjoy this phase. With your guidance, they will develop an understanding of the brake and proficiency with its use. They will also become confidant to coast and brake while standing. Soon, they'll be ready to graduate to powered mode.
Having graduated to powered mode, your young rider will start in a speed-limited setting (Low/Training) providing speeds similar to those they achieved while pushing the bike in the non-powered mode. They will learn to use the twist throttle and perform long coasting turns with constant throttle. As the fun continues and their confidence soars, you have two additional modes the bike can be set for.
Get your child outdoors where all of you will have many hours fun and enjoyment while they develop balance, eye-hand coordination, and get great exercise, too!
