Orbea Kimu 16 Kid Bike Slate Blue

The Orbea Kimu 16 redefines the entry into cycling for the youngest riders with a fully evolvable 2-in-1 concept.

Gone are the days of heavy bikes and restrictive training wheels. The Kimu 16 has been designed as an intelligent learning platform that supports children aged 3 to 6 in their quest for independence. This unique bike allows for a natural transition: it starts as a premium balance bike to master balance and braking, before transforming into a true pedal-powered VTT in the blink of an eye. This progressive approach ensures fear-free learning and immediate fun.

A durable investment that grows with your child. One of the major innovations of this pack lies in its adaptability. Orbea delivers the Kimu 16 with two seatposts of different lengths. This special attention ensures a performant and ergonomic pedaling position throughout the child's growth (from 94 to 115 cm). By combining a quality aluminum frame and robust components, the Kimu 16 is not just a bike for one summer, but a durable companion ready to be passed down from generation to generation.
