The Kidvelo Rookie 14 is a great choice of bike if you’re not sure whether your child is quite ready to start pedalling yet.
Whilst the Rookie 14 is a starter pedal bike in it’s own right, you can also remove the entire pedal/chain mechanism and quickly convert it into a balance bike.
So, you’re essentially getting two bikes for the price of one, saving you the cost of buying a 14″ wheel balance bike to get your child ready to pedal.
We also think this will be a good choice for families with younger siblings coming along behind, as you don’t know whether that child is going to need a pedal bike or a balance bike at the same age.
We’ve not reviewed this particular bike, but we’ve put the smaller Rookie 12 through its paces and were very impressed with the quality of the bike and the design features.
