"Orbea designed the Kimu 16 to roll in two different modes. For the newest of riders, the bike can be set up as a balance bike, achieved without many extra parts, as Orbea uses the crank arms flipped around and attached, serving as a platform for their feet."
"Because standover height and saddle height are significant concerns at the youngest ages, Orbea provides two seatposts with the Kimu 16. In its balance bike form, the Kimu 16 has a shorter seatpost, which can be swapped for a longer one as the child grows."
"Orbea also incorporates an elastic band running from the frame to the fork. This band acts as a stabilizer, preventing excessive handlebar rotation for new riders, enhancing safety during the learning process."
Orbea's Kimu lineup provides quality bikes for children, addressing the shortcomings of typical department store bikes. The Kimu 16 features a dual-mode design, allowing it to function as both a balance bike and a pedal bike. It includes adjustable seatposts to accommodate growth and a stabilizing elastic band for safety. The lineup includes models for various age groups, with the Kimu 20 for ages 5-8, Kimu 24 for ages 7-10, and Kimu 27 for ages 9-12, ensuring appropriate sizing and geometry for young riders.
