RIDGEBACK SCOOT XL BALANCE BIKE 2027

Every little rider has to start somewhere — and the best place to start is with a Scoot XL!

Designed for children aged 3 and up, the Scoot XL balance bike makes learning to ride fun and easy by mastering the two most important skills first: balance and steering. No pedals, no problem — just pure scooting confidence! The all‐new Scoot XL comes packed with upgrades to give your mini rider even more control. A lower frame makes it easier to mount and dismount, while smaller diameter grips are perfectly sized for little hands. And thanks to the grippy tyres, whether they're scooting across the garden, the park, or any soft ground adventure, they'll stay in full control every step of the way. Once they've nailed the Scoot XL, the natural next step? Pedalling like a pro.

Features 

• Smaller Grips — Our handlebars and grips are narrower diameter so they fit small hands better, for confidence and control as well as better ability to reach the brakes safely.
• Better Brakes — Brake levers are closer to the bars and adjustable for reach to suit smaller hands, and work perfectly with our smaller diameter grips.
• Lowered Frames — our frames are lower where it counts, making it easier to get on and off and increasing clearance for greater confidence.
