Cannondale Kids Trail Balance (2025)

The 2025 Kids Trail Balance, at run-out pricing. No pedals, no chain, no stabilisers — a 4kg alloy frame a toddler can pick up themselves and two wheels to learn balance on. Mechanically the same bike as the current model; the colours are what changed.

Key Features

• Lightweight SmartForm C3 Alloy frame with an easy low step-through
• Cannondale Little Lefty single-sided fork
• Rear hand brake sized for small hands
• Adjustable seat height that grows with the child
• 12" alloy rims on grippy, smooth-rolling tyres
• Around 4kg — light enough for a two-year-old to lift

Rider Fit

Suits riders of 94–107cm (3'1"–3'6"), roughly 2–4 years. Height is the reliable guide — age is only a rough one. Bring them in and we'll check the standover and reach before you buy.

Why You'll Love It

Children who start on a balance bike skip the training-wheel stage almost entirely, because they have already learned the hard part. This is the run-out colourway of the current bike, so the saving comes off the paint, not the spec. Fitted and safety-checked in-store at Mackay Cycles.
