Light weight and very easy to use.
Very well made. Sturdy. Love the seat adjustment system.
We bought our son his first little big bike for his 3rd birthday and he fell in love with it immediately zooming along everywhere. Within 2 months he was free wheeling down any hill he could find and then asked for pedals so he could be like his friends. It’s a fab and sturdy bike in lovely colours.
Customer service has been amazing as well. The team contacted me to confirm I had the correct pedal set for the year we had as they couldn’t find details of us buying it. Then gave me loads of tips on how to adjust the brakes to make them easier for his little hands as he was struggling to reach them. When I mentioned about a brake cable fraying they immediately offered to replace it and sent a link for you tube on how to do it. These guys are amazing and the quality of the bike and the way it grow a with our son is brilliant. Highly recommend them
Both of my children started off their cycling journey on Littlebigbikes. They each got their chosen colour on their 3rd birthdays respectively (one red like Iron Man and one Hulk green!!) and my goodness, how much these bikes were loved! They learned to zoom up and down the bumpy lane next to our house and we were so impressed with the idea that they’d learnt to balance first. They are sturdy bikes that can take plenty of crashing in their stride. My youngest enjoyed the larger local pump track on this balance bike. When each of the boys were ready, we got the local bike shop to make the ingenious conversion from balance bike to pedal bike by turning the back of the bike over. Both kids were a bit bemused at first when the pedals were hitting their ankles but they soon got used to it. Having already learnt to balance, the transition to then just resting their feet on the pedals and then learning to turn these was so much smoother. I’ve seen friends’ families trying to navigate a loss of stabilisers and many disheartening and off putting crashes and I could see that this is the wrong way round to learn - learning to balance should definitely come first! Both boys stayed exclusively using their Littlebigbikes until they were 7-8 years (5-6 years of use!) and now are both confident mountain bikers. We are passing these on to a friend’s family to use now - only slightly scratched but very well loved. I would recommend without any hesitation that this is the best way for children to learn to ride a bike - and certainly the best value for money for a bike! Thankyou for helping us make such positive memories for our family.
We were given a second hand (third hand as it was actually used for two children in the same family) a pre2025 version of the bike that needed a few fixes (breaks changing, handlebar grips replacing and a new seat) to make it look like new again and have it working safely. I contacted Little Big Bikes via email as I could only locate the breaks on the website. They were so helpful, helping me replace parts that aren’t even listed on the website. Threw in freebies for me and even checked we had everything else to swap it to a big pedal bike. When we didn’t, he even added the bolt we were missing and the instructions. This has, therefore, stopped another bike being produced for my daughter and in turn another bike going to landfill later down the line and has given a new lease of life for the bike we were given. Which should last a few years at least based on the age of the girl we got the bike from. My daughter is so pleased with her new bike. Exceptional service!
