DMR Sidekick Pedal Bike – The Ultimate Kids’ Bike for Learning to Pedal

The DMR Sidekick Pedal Bike is the perfect next step for young riders ready to transition from balance bikes to mastering pedaling. Thoughtfully designed for stability, confidence, and fun, it makes the leap to pedaling an enjoyable and easy experience.

Optimised Geometry for Learning:

  • Low Bottom Bracket (BB): Creates a low centre of gravity for stability and confidence, making the bike easy to control.
  • Mullet Setup: Allows for a greater bottom bracket drop, enabling young riders to have their feet flat on the ground when stationary while maintaining correct leg extension when pedaling.
  • Longer Rear End and Long Wheelbase: Adds extra stability at speed, making the bike smooth and predictable.
  • Slack Seat Angle and Short Cranks: Ensures a comfortable pedaling position, helping kids start and maintain motion effortlessly.

Confidence-Inspiring Design:

  • Premium Aluminium Frame and Fork: Lightweight and durable, crafted with the same care and quality as DMR’s pro dirt jump bikes.
  • Kid-Specific Components: Narrow-diameter handlebars and grips, smaller platform pedals, and junior-sized Tektro hydraulic disc brakes ensure an ergonomic fit for smaller hands and feet.

Safety and Control:

  • Full Hydraulic Disc Brakes: Easy-to-use and powerful brakes provide excellent stopping power, helping kids confidently control their speed.
  • Knobby Tyres (Vee Crown Gem): Offer superior grip and comfort on a variety of terrains.

Simple and Fun to Ride:

  • Custom DMR Geometry: Designed to make pedaling easy, with gearing optimised for quick starts and minimal effort.
  • Lightweight Construction: Easier for kids to maneuver and control.
  • ISO 8098 Compliant Chain Guard: Provides safety and peace of mind for parents.

From its low centre of gravity to its confidence-boosting geometry, the DMR Sidekick Pedal Bike is engineered to make pedaling easy and fun. This bike offers a perfect balance of performance and simplicity, ensuring that kids can learn to ride with confidence and enjoy the journey.
