The Hornit AIRO 12 is an award-winning balance bike designed to give young children the perfect introduction to cycling. Weighing an incredible 2.95kg, it is one of the lightest balance bikes available, helping little riders build confidence, coordination and balance with ease.

Designed for children aged 18 months to 5 years, the AIRO 12 features an ultra-lightweight magnesium alloy frame that is both exceptionally strong and completely maintenance-free. The lightweight design makes it easier for young riders to control, manoeuvre and enjoy their first cycling adventures while reducing the effort required for parents to carry or transport the bike.

Unlike many balance bikes, the AIRO 12 features integrated grip-taped footrests moulded neatly into the frame. As confidence grows, children can glide comfortably with their feet up and experience the thrill of balancing on two wheels before progressing to a pedal bike.

Air-filled rubber tyres mounted on lightweight aluminium rims provide a smooth and comfortable ride across pavements, parks and playgrounds. Sealed bearings protect the wheels from dirt and moisture while ensuring long-lasting performance with virtually no maintenance required.

Safety and comfort are further enhanced by a padded neoprene stem cover and a fully adjustable saddle that grows with your child. Suitable for inside leg measurements from 30cm to 46cm, the AIRO 12 offers years of use as children develop their cycling skills.

Finished in striking Hammer Yellow with contrasting black detailing, the Hornit AIRO 12 combines outstanding performance, exceptional value and eye-catching style. Backed by Hornit's lifetime frame and fork warranty, it's the ideal first bike for future cycling champions.
