Vitus Smoothy Balance Bike

Vitus Smoothy Balance Bike

The Vitus Smoothy is a lightweight, secure and stable ride that helps kids gain confidence and to familiarise themselves with the world of cycling at a young age. Balance bikes are one of the most important tools for kids to help them learn to roll upon two wheels. This bike is designed to make learning and progression easy and fun, helping them learn to cycle whilst having a great time. Plus, this balance bike is one of the lightest, most durable and stylish on the market.

Functional, Stylish and Stable

The Smoothy features a unique cast Magnesium frameset that’s extremely functional and visually awesome. Within the design, Vitus has incorporated a useful carry handle for Mum & Dad, and some integrated footrests for that game changing moment when your child has the confidence to glide.

Smooth and Reliable Performance

Vitus has taken inspiration from their adult bikes for the steering controls, with the headset upper and lower bearings making the steering control smooth and reliable, with 20mm of spacers under the stem allowing you to fine tune the height of the handlebars. A shorty stem and quality set of aluminium handlebars with slight back sweep, and some soft and comfortable TRP grips round out the front of the bike.

Comfortable and Secure Agility and Control

Saddles are often overlooked on balance bikes, but not here. Vitus has a specially designed balance bike saddle that features a ‘scoop’ shape so your child will be sat in the correct position all of the time. This ensures they can steer effectively and are positioned perfectly, giving themselves the best possible change of balancing effectively. Also, the seatpost is fully height adjustable allowing room for growth

Lightweight, Dependable and Cool Balance Bike

The lightweight wheels feature a set of premium aluminium 12 spoke hubs, helping to keep weight to a minimum, and giving the bike a very cool look. Plus, the wheels are fitted with CST IRONKID 12 x 2.1” tyres which have been carefully chosen to deliver excellent rolling capability on both hard or soft ground, so the bike remains efficient to glide no matter what the surface.

Please Note: To continue to strive to make better and safer products we are in the process of removing all valve dust caps from the Vitus Smoothy. We felt like this was the right thing to do with the potential (no matter how small) of the caps being a choking hazard to small children
