The Merida Matts J12 is a fun and cool bike for 2-4 year olds who want to enjoy riding in comfort on two or four wheels. The lightweight alloy frame is much easier to handle and control than a steel frame which kids bikes usually use, which is important for kids that are at an age where they are still developing strength and coordination. The Matts J12 is built specifically for kids with its lower standover height and 12" wheels for comfort and control. When your kids develop their riding skills you can simply remove the training wheels and now you have their first ride on two wheels. Whether it's your kids first bike or just an upgrade once they have outgrown their old toddler bike, the Merida Matts J12 is a great choice for your kids next bike.

What you'll love:

• Just Like The Grown Ups: All kids’ bike frames are made with the same 6061 lightweight aluminium we use in our adult bikes, Merida don’t cut any corners. They’re also painted and lacquered in the same way, so the bikes can still look great even after a few tough knocks.
• Simplicity and Lightweight: Many of our bikes feature rigid forks. This helps to keep the weight down, which is a big advantage for much lighter riders. Gears are also kept to a minimum, avoiding confusion for young riders, again reducing weight.
