KTM’s commitment to inclusivity was evident throughout the event. Even the youngest riders, some as young as 3 years old, were given the chance to participate. A specially designed track for kids featured electric bikes, allowing the little ones to join in the excitement instead of just observing from the sidelines.
KTM understands the importance of nurturing a child’s interests and hobbies from a young age. Introducing young riders to the world of dirt biking at an early stage is a commitment to fostering a love for the sport that may last a lifetime. These electric balance dirt bikes provide the ideal starting point, ensuring that children’s first experiences with offroad riding are safe, accessible, and enjoyable.
Even kids as young as 3 years old can easily operate them, making it a perfect introduction to the world of dirt biking. These bikes are simple to handle, allowing young riders to quickly build their skills and confidence.
In contrast to traditional gas-powered dirt bikes, the electric balance dirt bikes are remarkably quiet. The absence of engine noise enhances safety and ensures that kids can enjoy themselves without causing noise disturbances for neighbors, making it a win-win for all.
The electric balance dirt bikes offer children the chance to learn how to balance and ride a dirt bike gradually. In non-power mode, young riders can push or coast the bike, focusing on developing balance and coordination. Once they are confident in these skills, the power can be switched on, allowing children to learn how to use the throttle and brakes safely and progressively.
