The Ultimate First Bike

Hotwalk Carbon

We created something two-year-olds had only dreamed of until now: The Ultimate First Bike. We took the same tech behind our world championship-winning bikes and pored over every single detail to achieve a ride quality that’s unprecedented in a kid’s bike. We’re talking precision at every touchpoint—from small diameter grips to a solid carbon layup. All aligned to create the ultimate first ride.

It Started as a Sketch

Inspired by a trip to Taiwan for Bike Week, our industrial designers had a vision of the ultimate first bike. Once the team mocked it up, it was clear: we needed to do this. If road cyclists ride carbon bikes for speed and stamina, so should kids. If mountain bikers need low-friction saddles for rough roads, kids do too. This ridiculously small, totally unique project was just too fun to pass up. And when it came to engineering, the answer was easy: Utilize the same team we’ve trusted to make our top performance bikes, like the

Tarmac SL7 and the All-New
