Gocycle for kids! We are excited to reveal the new Gocycle Mini, our first children’s balance bike. You were not expecting that were you?
The Gocycle Mini is the latest arrival in our growing family of award-winning Gocycle urban e-bikes. Gocycle’s OneDesignDNA® philosophy provides a strong unified design language mimicking the brand’s full-sized adult models.
Gocycle’s patented mini side-mounted Pitstopwheels®, a mini single-sided front fork, moulded mini-Cleandrive® and carbon fibre mini front frame combine to create one of the world’s lightest (2.6kg / 5.7lbs) children’s balance bikes, set to inspire the next generation of riders the world over.
Gocycle Designer and Founder Richard Thorpe said: “For over two decades we’ve honed and mastered our craft to create the perfect urban e-bike, optimized for healthy and sustainable personal transport. Building on the recent reveal of our new CXi Family Cargo electric bike, the new Gocycle Mini further extends our product range to little riders wanting to share in all the fun and pride Gocycle owners have.”
“We’ve taken our no-compromises approach with the Gocycle Mini design and engineering, focusing on lightweight and living with the product as much as inspiring little ones to get moving, learn new skills, and feel the thrill of two wheels! Parents will appreciate how easy it is to carry, but aspiring little Gocyclers will take pride in having what mum or dad have! Above all, this little thing makes people smile!”
The monocoque chassis is formed by a lightweight precision engineered carbon fibre front frame mated to the brand’s iconic moulded alloy Cleandrive®. The setup further enhances the bike’s ride dynamic while delivering a seamless, integrated design. Parents will appreciate how easy the Gocycle Mini is to live with and to clean – a quick wipe down and the Mini is back to looking its best.
The Gocycle Mini weighs just 2.6kg (5.7lbs) making it one of the lightest balance bikes on the market, with the innovative integration of lightweight materials delivering significant performance benefits. Easy for parents to haul around, and nimble for kids at the start of their two-wheeled adventures and for longer rides.
Gocycle’s commitment to the benefits of single side-mounted wheels means that fixing a flat on the Gocycle Mini is easy as well as giving little riders street cred in the park with the cool seamless look only automative-inspired design holds.
Each Gocycle has an automotive-inspired adjustable driving position. Cars come in one size with an adjustable position; so does Gocycle. The Gocycle Mini’s Vgonomic™ designed seat-post and frame geometry provides adaptable fitting with superior comfort levels for extended usage as little ones grow bigger. Please refer to technical specifications for suggested age range suitability.
The Gocycle Mini reveal comes hot on the heels of the release of the revolutionary new CXi & CX+ Family Cargo electric bikes. We released the first pre-production images of the CXi & CX+ at the end of March.
The Gocycle Mini & CXi & CX+ Family Cargo electric bikes will complement the award-winning fast-folding G4, G4i & G4i+ electric bikes to form Gocycle’s 2024 product line-up.
Gocycle Mini will be priced from £399 / €399 / $399 at launch. First deliveries expected from October 2024.
With an initial scheduled production run of just 500 units, the Gocycle Mini will become one of the most sought-after children’s balance bikes available.
Pre-orders will open soon. Explore the Gocycle Mini and register for an exclusive launch offer here.
