Do you remember your first bike? I sure do, it was a rickety old mountain bike that was way too big for any six-year-old to start out on. However, despite it being way too big for me, I remember riding around the neighborhood with relative ease until I was big enough to ride a grown-up bike. That said, kids these days have it easy as bike makers design two-wheelers that are specifically made for kids to build their skills on.
A good example of this is the new C1 from Himiway, a California-based e-bike manufacturer that’s been building a strong presence in recent years. The C1 isn’t an electric bicycle, but rather, more like a tiny electric dirtbike for youngsters. It doesn’t get any pedals, but rather footpegs like that of a motorbike. That means its sole means of propulsion is via the hand throttle on the handlebars. Himiway says the C1 is designed for kids aged four to 12, however, I’d strongly suggest taking extra caution if your kid is on the younger side of this spectrum, as this little two-wheeler is packing quite a punch.
