LittleBig - The Bike That Grows With Your Child

The Convertible Kids Bike That Grows With Your Child

LittleBig is a convertible balance bike designed for children aged 2 to 6. It begins as a small balance bike, grows into a larger balance bike frame, and converts into a 14 inch pedal bike using the optional pedal kit.

Your child can progress from their first glide to confident pedalling on one trusted bike.

Explore our full range of balance bikes for kids designed to help children learn to ride with confidence.

3 Bikes in 1

LittleBig is designed to support every stage of learning to ride on the same frame. It starts as a small balance bike, flips into a larger balance bike as your child grows, and can later convert into a pedal bike using the optional pedal kit.

This approach helps children master balance first, then transition to pedals without stabilisers, and without needing to buy separate bikes for each stage.

Growing Design

The frame is designed to adapt as your child grows. Saddle height and reach can be adjusted for a correct fit, and the frame flip increases space and height for the next stage.

If you are unsure about sizing, use the sizing guide on this page and measure inside leg length for the best fit.

Converts

LittleBig is supplied in balance mode as standard. When your child is ready to pedal, you can add the optional pedal kit and convert it into a proper pedal bike.

Many families prefer this approach because it lets children build real balance skills first, making the move to pedals feel natural and reducing the need for stabilisers.

Lightweight

A lighter bike is easier for young riders to control, especially when starting out on a balance bike. LittleBig is designed to feel manageable for small hands and growing coordination, helping children steer, stop and pick up the bike more easily.

You can find full specifications and weight details at the bottom of this page.

Age 2 to 6

LittleBig is designed for children roughly age 2 through to 6 years, depending on inside leg length. Fit matters more than age, so we recommend measuring your child and using the sizing guide on this page.

In balance mode, the saddle height adjusts from 30 cm upward, so smaller riders can start safely and comfortably.

What Is a Balance Bike?

A balance bike helps children learn coordination and steering before they start pedalling. By allowing children to push along with their feet, they naturally develop balance and confidence on two wheels before moving to pedals.
