Veloplus goes rubber with children's bikes

A lightweight children's bike with good riding characteristics: This task sounds mundane, but it's not. Kids' bikes that weigh a lot can tell you a thing or two about it. Veloplus has now set itself the task of launching a children's bike. Around one hundred children have been involved.

The people who ride the bike should actually decide what kind of bike it should be: Veloplus has taken up this cause - and, in addition to experts, is also letting the target group have a say in the development of the "Flizzi". According to Kathrin Würmli from Veloplus, the experiences and preferences of around one hundred children were incorporated into the development of the new children's bike line.

There are two wheel sizes to choose from for the "Flizzis": 16 and 20 inches. To cater to as many preferences as possible, Veloplus has divided the children's bikes into several options. In addition to two colors, there is a choice of coaster brake or rim brake for the catchy, belt-driven 16-inch model. For the 20-inch model, two color variants are also rolling into the Veloplus online and retail range, each in a chain and belt variant.

Weights start at 7.2 kg including pedals - this is not a peak value, but should ensure that the little ones get off to a good start and that the bike can take a beating. With non-toxic grips, child-friendly brake levers, pedals designed for children's feet and an adjustable seat position, the bikes are equipped with features that could put a smile on the faces of children and parents alike.
