Westlake Village, California | October 9, 2025 — TIME has named the Prevelo Zulu One and Zulu Two to its Best Inventions of 2025, an annual feature highlighting 300 ideas that make life better in big and small ways. TIME’s editors and correspondents gather nominations from around the world, along with submissions through an open call. Final picks are chosen for their creativity, usefulness, and overall impact.

The full list is available at time.com/collections/best-inventions-2025, with the Zulu One and Zulu Two featured here.

Built entirely for young riders, the Zulu One and Zulu Two deliver a real mountain bike feel, not a toy version of one. Prevelo’s patent-pending BALANCE-TEC pedal bike to balance bike conversion system is a big part of that. It's the world's first system that allows a pedal bike to be converted to a balance bike with simple hex keys, and with no compromise to performance as a pedal bike.
