Frog Tadpole

Frog has an excellent reputation in the world of kids bikes and their Frog Tadpole 12" balance bike is a popular choice for parents looking to introduce their little one to cycling. It is safe and comfortable to ride with a locking headset to limit handlebar movement, and a rear brake with a lever made for tiny hands. It also features an incredibly lightweight frame, making it easy to control for young children.

For children aged 2 - 3 years old
