We've taken our time-tested and award-winning LittleBig bike and reimagined it.
Saddle Height Range
The new LittleBig boasts class-leading adjustability. The saddle goes as low as 30cm in little mode and up to 53cm in big/ pedal mode.
The unique forward-mounted pedal kit allows for a full-length seatpost while keeping a super low starting saddle height of 39cm in pedal mode. This means younger kids can learn to pedal while having the comfort of reaching the ground while they get the hang of pedalling.
Lighter Weight
We've shaved 600g of weight without compromising strength. The new LittleBig has an aluminium fork and lighter components, making it even easier for your kiddo to ride.
•Wheels - fewer spokes, lighter tyres, hollow axle bolt-on hubs.
•Fork - aluminium rather than steel, 50% lighter!
•Cockpit - lighter stem and handlebars
Redesigned Frame, Fork and Pedal Kit
Sleeker design with recessed bolts.
Lower step through height
The hub has a fixed position on the frame, so the brakes stay perfectly adjusted even after removing and refitting the wheel while converting to the pedal bike.
Unique sliding mounts for the pedal kit allows for easier chain tensioning.
Easy Pull Front and Rear V Brakes
Tektro short reach kids specific brake levers front and rear.

Really amazing product that my son can grow with. He is thrilled with it and I am so impressed with the quality. I had a snag with my order and Daire sorted it out and went above and beyond - so I also can't say enough about the customer service! Don't hesitate - fab product and company.
My first child got the littlebig for Christmas 2014. My 2nd, 3rd & now my 4th child have all used the littlebig, changing from balance bike to pedals with ease each time. All four of them were pedalling from 3.5/4yrs and loved the bike. It has stood the test of time and when my 4th child is finished with it, I have no doubt that it will continue to be used by others. The great thing is you can buy all parts separately so if you need to replace any parts (which wasn't needed very much) or just want to spruce it up (which never needed to be done during our time with it), it can be done very easily and this bike can just keep going and continue to be loved, which is also great environmentally! Additionally, customer service is second to none with littlebig...you can't go wrong!
Excellent bikes. We have 2 of these bikes. They are excellent quality and are beautifully made. They are very easy to assemble. Both children loved them as balance bikes and started on them when they were nearly 3. They have now transitioned onto their pedals with ease. They are light weight and ease to manage for them. Attaching the pedals is relatively simple and straightforward.
I would 100% recommend to a friend and do so on regular occasions.
Couldn’t possibly recommend this company more! Fantastic idea, fantastic build quality and just such a great little bike. My lad absolutely loves it and has taken to it so quickly, really recommend going for the upgraded tyres too 👌 I’m sure the standard ones are perfectly fine but the upgraded ones are brill! Order arrived in two days , couldn’t be happier!
According to my grandson who I gave it to yesterday, “I like it real good.“
I’m an amateur bike mechanic and appreciate good components. I have shopped far and wide for a kid’s bike that would really impress me. This is it!
As I said to my grandson, it has big bike parts like mine. That’s what really impressed me. It’s real solid yet light weight, has truly functional hand brakes, and a real headset for the handlebars. The wheel bearings are smooth and solid as well as on the pedal assembly. Who would’ve thought on a kids bike! He likes to ride fast, and there’s lots of dirt roads and hills around here. I wanted him to be safe on a good functional bike. I’m very pleased! Thank you all for a wonderful product!
Oh, and this bike made it all the way to Hawaii. The box was so beat up that I actually took pictures for fear there was damage. The packing was so well done that the bike was in pristine condition.
A great product! My daughter loves her Little Big Bike. Quality is excellent, assembly is easy, and customer service is excellent as well throughout the entire ordering process. I bought a Strider before (now it’s too small for my daughter), and I am extremely satisfied with the Little Big Bike, I’m sure my daughter will enjoy it for years (with hindsight, I should have bought the Little Big Bike from the very beginning since it's absolutely ideal for all ages). Definitely recommended!
We bought this bike for our boys 2nd birthday and by 3.5years he was pedalling! Best thing we've ever bought without a doubt! He's 4 years old now & he cycles outside for hours. Absolutely loves it. So sturdy & it has taken ALOT of bangs. Just about to put an order in for our 2year old girl by the request of her brother so they can cycle together
I had been looking for a bike for my 2 year old and wasn’t sure whether to go for a balance bike or a bike with stabilisers. When I came across Little Big Bike it seemed like the perfect answer. I know it’s a little expensive but figured if it lasts until she’s 6 or 7 then it’s worth it. The communication throughout order to delivery has been excellent. The day the bike arrived I couldn’t wait for my daughter to see it. It really is beautiful and she loves it. We went straight out for a go and my daughter took to it amazing. First time on a bike and she was able to steer and push it along whilst walking over the frame (which is how children start on a balance bike). The quality is so impressive. Light weight and well made. We love it! Thank you Little Big Bikes!
A little bike packed with brilliant design. I love the idea that one bike can accompany my child on his entire learn-to-ride journey, before being passed on to siblings or friends. It has a great design, so I am sure the LittleBig will last.
Of course the biggest benefit to this is you don't have to buy a whole bunch of stuff. This thing can be adjusted in all sorts of ways. High marks all around.
The LittleBig easily guides your mini-shredder through their exciting journey from balance bike to pedal powered adventures.
This cool machine makes a lot of sense: great convertible geometry, excellent part spec and amazing build quality offers tremendous value
The LittleBig is a game changer as it is lightweight, well-made and performs great as a balance bike and as a beginning pedal bike. Designed and assembled in Ireland, every LittleBig is inspected to ensure top-quality upon arrival.
The LittleBig bike is a brilliant concept that will see your child travel from the early stages of balance through to learning how to pedal and beyond. It's light, well made and above all so exciting to ride that you'll struggle to get them off it.
The LittleBig frame and fork are made from 6061-T6 aluminium which is commonly used in road and mountain bikes due to its light weight and durability.
The lighter the bike, the more easily it can be pushed along, steered and lifted which will help your child cycle with confidence.
The LittleBigs 14 inch balance bike wheels gives a stable ride and glides over a range of terrain with ease. Forest trails, school rides, BMX track, pump track, these tyres can handle it all.
The air-filled rubber tires are comfortable and grippy while still being durable and long lasting. The lightweight alloy rims roll on sealed cartridge bearings which are quiet and will run smoothly for years.
LittleBig is hand-assembled in Ireland with proper parts, including a lightweight saddle seatpost combo, alloy riser handlebar and forged alloy style stem. These are all adjustable to ensure the bike is the perfect fit for your child, allowing them to push their limits and explore new adventures.
Kids specific short-reach alloy brake levers work with little hands. Front and rear brakes ensure your little one can stop quickly and safely.
The LittleBig grows from a big balance bike into a big pedal bike. When your little one is ready to begin pedalling, just add the pedal kit and off they go!
Having learned to balance first, your child’s transition to pedalling will be easy, and usually only takes a few short goes.
With your child wearing their shoes, stand them with their back against a wall.
Place a book against the wall between their legs.
Move the book up as high as is comfortable.
Measure from the top of the book to the floor and this is the inside leg length.
In order to start pedalling on the LittleBig bike, your child’s inside leg length needs to be approximately 39cm or more. As well as fitting the bike correctly, your child should also be able to:
