Belter 16

NEXT LEVEL, EVERY DAY

Rated 4.9 out of 5
Based on 188 reviews

SUPER STABLE, LIGHTWEIGHT, FREE ROLLING BIKE FOR RAPID PROGRESSION AND EVERY DAY ADVENTURES. THE WORLD’S BEST SELLING BELT DRIVE BICYCLE. 

Color: Brushed Aluminium

Performance. Practicality. Proven.

An ultra-lightweight belt drive, running on the best-in-class wheels, makes sure pedalling is always a breeze for those little legs - always. No grease means there's never any grime building up to make their life harder (as well as no oily stains to make your life harder).  

The drive train is aluminium too, so there are no rusty chainrings to replace. And stretch or wear? These belts last as timing belts in car engines - you're safe.

So that’s free rolling, clean, quiet, durable, rust-free, low maintenance. Low cost of ownership, no discernible loss of performance and no corrosion to hurt resale value. If only it had legendary geometry and market leading finishing kit... Is it any wonder that the Belter 16 reinvented the first bike?

Very good first bike for my son with small legs

My son has small legs compared to his height but this bike was like magical for him and he was able from the first time to cycle on his own!

Very happy with the purchase, much lighter than other (cheaper) bikes.

Excellent bike for young pirates on bikes

The weight and economics of the spike and just perfect for young boys to gain confidence and control on their bicycle. It is now the third bike for little boy and with each new one, he’s made substantial progress.

Very happy customer

We have had the Belter 16 for two years now and will upgrade next year. This bike made it super easy for our son to learn, even though he was really hesitant in the beginning. It's stable, trustworthy and robust - but without the added weight. And the design is outstanding. Our 6-year old has truly loved it.

Fantastic bike, still going strong after 6 years

Excellent bike. Our three kids used this to learn how to cycle and after using a balance bike managed to get going in minutes. Nice and light so it's easy to get going. Or youngest is 5 and a half (average height) and has outgrown it but still using it....for now. All learned to cycle just turning 4 (average height kids), no problems, perfect!

Awesome bike

My 4 year old is super happy and finally has managed to get of his balance bike. Few hours without pedals for practice and he was able to pedal, brake and reach good speeds. Bike is very good built from high quality parts. Also, it look’s so amazing. Totally worth the money! 🙂

Belter 16

The rider used to use Rider 12 and moving to Belter 16 was natural, love at first sight. The product is flawless as far as I am concerned.

I will likely buy Belter 20/24 and I hope for a better distribution in Czechia. DPD.CZ dent the joy.
