Thumpstar TSE 16
$899.00 – $1,199.00
Thumpstar presents the easiest way to get your kids riding before they are ready to hop on a motorcycle!
Rather than peddaling or running to push the bike along, your child can learn the basics of handle bar controls with twist throttle and bar mounted front brakes. Suitable for 3-5 year olds the electric balance bike is the ultimate teaching tool for those who want their child to learn the basics of riding a motorcycle without the dangers and maintenence that petrol powered motorbikes pose.
Would you like to develop your child’s balance and coordination?
Has your toddler outgrown the tricycle, but is still too small for those 50cc dirtbikes?
This is the bike you’ve been waiting for!
The Thumpstar TSE 16 Electric Balance Bike is suitable for children AGES 3 and UP. This bike has more safety controls than any other electric starter bike out there!
The box includes a set of REAL MOTORCYCLE FOOTPEGS (which you can easily attach when your child has learned some basic skill and balance), a charging cord which plugs into a port on the frame, high quality 5.2Ah battery for hours of fun*, and an owner’s manual.
Item comes fully assembled with Instore Pickup, partial assembly required when freight is required.
HIGHLIGHTS
This bike includes Thumpstar’s KICK START feature, for added safety, which prevents sudden, unexpected starts. (The rider must start the bike in motion or “push off” before the motor will activate.) As the rider gains experience and skill, the KICK START feature can be disabled by opening the bottom cover and unplugging the clearly labeled “KICK START” wire.
3 Speed Switch on the bottom of the bike, which conveniently allows your child to start slow and increase speeds as they gain skill and experience.
Speed Limiter which can be disconnected by removing the bottom cover and disconnecting the easily identifiable “Speed Limiter” Wire. (Be sure to set the above mentioned Speed Switch on the bottom of the bike back to the SLOW setting until your child is ready for maximum performance!)
Torque Switch which can be disconnected by removing the bottom cover and disconnecting the easily identifiable “Torque Switch” wire for maximum starting and hill climbing power.
Aluminum Frame with Steel Forks make this bike lightweight, but still very durable.
Adjustable seat (15″ to 22″) to allow the perfect fit (your child should be able to place both feet on the ground simultaneously while seated).
6 speed settings (3 in “Limited” mode plus 3 more in “full power” mode).
Hub Motor
Latest geared 250w hub motor. Smaller and more efficient, high torque but silent. This hub motor uses less power than the mid mount chain drive motors, which is why the TSE12 and TSE16 can last as long as 6 hours.
Throttle
Smooth power delivery designed for children. 3 speeds with another 3 racing speeds that can be adjusted at the controller unit. Total 6 Speed.
Battery
Lithium battery designed and tested as longest lasting electric balance bike battery on the market. 2 – 6 hours depending on conditions and speed settings.
Controller
Hi-tech yet simple controller which has many options including adding or removing kick mode for children learning to ride.
Frame
Heat teated 6061 T6 Frame designed not only for beginners but also for the race track. The bikes feature a 65 degree rake, then same angle as a full motocross bike.
Motocross / Rubber Footpegs
Start them off with rubber footpegs, which we found more stable than plastic flatforms, then when the children are confident, install the full sized 56mm stainless footpegs.
Brake Lever
Designed and tested for kids as young as 2 years old.
Disc Brake
High quality disc brake with auto power cut when the brake is engaged but can be easily disconnected by an adult for races and experienced riders.
