Laufrad 12" Dirt Hero white
329.00 CHF - available 19
The Dirt Hero is no ordinary balance bike, but a scaled down enduro machine designed to help MTB kids learn skills and build confidence on the trails
By designing a trail-ready wheel, we're helping kids develop MTB skills earlier and easier, while helping families get out on the trail together.
The Dirt Hero is suitable for 12- and 14-inch wheels, but can also be set up as a mullet bike. In our research, we've often seen kids go straight from a 12-inch balance bike to a 16-inch pedal bike. Such a big step can not only hinder their development, but also affect their enjoyment of riding. Allowing them to gently transition from a 12-inch bike to a 14-inch bike (and then adding brakes) before they have to take on a much heavier pedal bike ensures that children progress step by step and maintain the fun of riding.
For parents, it's a big advantage that they don't have to buy a separate 14" wheel, but can simply upgrade their running bike to continue having fun.
Noteworthy are the seat tube angle (which allows the bike to grow with the child) and the dropout design, which increases the wheelbase along with the wheel size.

Kids Ride Shotgun
Kids Ride Shotgun's journey begins in the summer of 2017, when mountain biking with kids split the family for co-founder Dan Necklen.
Dan knew that a rear-mounted seat wouldn't work on his full-suspension mountain bike. So he started looking around for front-mounted child seats without finding a satisfactory product.
That's when co-founder, product designer and father Tom Hayward came into the picture. The goal was clear: to develop a child bike seat for parents who own high-quality, full-suspension bikes and want to take their children cycling.
A few months later, the first version of the Shotgun seat was born and a pre-order campaign helped launch the brand in New Zealand. The following year, the Shotgun grab handle accessory was launched. The company evolved into a brand with a vision to empower the next generation of mountain bikers.
