Why we like it at Kickstand Culture
The 12 Comp keeps early riding simple. It is light enough for very small riders to maneuver, has a handlebar made for little hands, and uses flat-free foam rubber tires so families do not have to worry about tube repairs. The adjustable seat helps the bike fit through the early balance-bike stage.
