Exceptional
Slick, fun, and fast, the Prevelo Alpha Two 16″ kid’s bike will quickly turn any child into a bike enthusiast.
You can’t get a nicer 16″ pedal bike
A big thumbs up
This bike is awesome, I love it and most importantly my daughter loves it. We ride every day and her progression on this bike has been incredible. It's fits perfectly, it's light and came out of the box with very little assembly left to complete. I have been in the bike industry for the past 20 years on the shop side, manufacturing side along with youth coaching and guiding and after researching all of the options this is the bike to get. Prevelo does a fantastic job and you get a lot of bang for your buck. A nicer kids bike makes a HUGE difference. Thank you again to Jacob, his family and the rest of the Prevelo Team, you guys are awesome!
This bike has changed my son’s life, especially during this trying time. This bicycle is exceptionally well made, beautifully engineered, and real real easy on the eyes. Its gorgeous: clean lines and good proportions. It doesn’t aesthetically talk down to kids. From the gear ratio, to the weighting, to the curves, it’s clear that thoughtful people have constructed an exquisite machine. My son not only adores the bike itself but also the sense of freedom and confidence he has riding it all over city streets, dirt tracks, and soon down the side of a mountain (or so he tells me). Thank you for building machines that bring children joy and parents pride.
Back in February of 2018, after a lengthy and at times, confusing research comparing multiple bike companies in search for my son's first pedal bike, I stumbled upon Prevelo Bikes. Prevelo caught my attention because they were purposely researching and building bikes specifically for kids, while using the highest quality parts available. I purchased the Alpha One because it was the lightest and most feature-packed bike I could find for my son's age and size. The freewheel kit made this bike a must have. Other manufacturers did not offer a freewheel kit. My son loved his Alpha one! The bike gave him the confidence to pedal a bike for the first time. I was amazed at the progress he made, going from a timid rider to one that was attempting tricks on his bike. Once my son grew a bit too tall for the Alpha one, there was no question that the Alpha Two was the only bike on my shopping list. I made my Alpha Two purchase in October of 2019 and he is currently loving his bike. He looks forward to riding as much as he can. As for myself, I've found peace of mind in that my search for the best bike possible for my son was made correctly. And with the trade-up club, I see him growing with Prevelo for many years to come. Overwhelmingly satisfied with Prevelo! Tim N. San Jose, CA
My husband was a bit hesitant with me spending this much on a bike for a 4 year old, but when he saw our son riding on it shortly after arrival, he agreed it was a great purchase! Our son picked up riding quite early due to the fact that he took to a balance bike very quickly when he was small. By 3 he was riding a Strider 14x (14”) with pedals with zero difficulty and it was very apparent he found PURE JOY in riding his bike. I wasn’t happy with the coaster brake set up on the Strider so I decided to upgrade to a 16” with hand brakes this year. After a ton of research, I decided on the Prevelo because of geometry ( my son isn’t really tall or long limbed for his age ) and because of it being one of the lighter bikes I could find. We customized it with some colorful hand grips and a kick stand and they shipped it to Canada in TWO days. I was floored it made it there so fast. He adores his bike and did his first ‘mountain bike’ camp this year. He held his own even with the single gear. The kick stand really prevents him from dropping his bike on the pavement every time he gets off of it (eye roll) and instead he very carefully stands it up using the kickstand. It is really well built, easy for me to adjust and put together. Despite him already putting it through the ringer the way a 4 year old does.. the paint has no scratches or dings yet. Customer service was great, we are seriously considering the trade up club as I don’t see any reason to not go with Prevelo for our next bike!! Thank you guys!!
I needed a bike for our son for his fourth birthday - started my research late but chanced upon Prevelo. Placed my order- however delivery date and demand for the alpha two was backorded . I made a call to Prevelo and after reviewing my order and knowing it was for a birthday . The team ensured my son received his bike before his birthday. My son is 4 years old . We live in manhattan . He practiced on the bike at a football field for 3 days of 60 mins each . Total of 3 hours . He’s already biking to school . Biking sans training wheels . His next bike is undoubtedly being purchased from Prevelo. Thank you to all who made my sons 4TH birthday a great one and cultivating his lifelong love for biking .
