High quality bikes
Ordered a Belter 20. Got back to me with a local seller and purchase options. Ordered it local for cheaper and faster and colour preference. Great service. My kid loves it.

The South African shop is useless
The South African shop is useless. They don't proceed orders when done we had to ask per email to get it processed. Only then we received the proof of payment. They provide a waybill number for delivery but it's wrong - so struggling to find out.

Early Rider Seeker 14
High grade build quality and components make putting the bike together very simple and my son's experience of riding his first pedal bike a joyful one. Easy to reach and adjust brake levers give him confidence as does the geometry. He's taken to pedalling so quickly in part because of the quality of the bike he's now riding.

Positive impact from Early Rider…
Positive impact from Early Rider supporting to get my sons Seeker 16 fully functioning can not be overstated.
My son relies on his bike to regulate, and the enjoyment and fulfilment he experiences on the Early rider machine is priceless.
The team were understanding, knowledgeable, gave links, options, and delivered very quickly.
What a service, what a Team, World class!

Amazing company who went above and beyond to make my child's dream come true
The team couldn't do enough to make things smooth and easy. Always available to answer my questions and very approachable.
We went to their work shop where they made the experience for my wee lad amazing...they covered the bike with a cloth and made the reveal experience one to remember.
O and the bikes are fab quality too

Smiles for days.
We are on our third and sadly last Earlyrider bike as the boy is almost grown up. We have 3 years left on the new seeker 24X. The bikes from this company have been solid and maintenance free for all the years we’ve been customers.
A fantastic company that has always answered calls. We have had many wonderful rides and my son has become a confident rider who is really stoked on his new 24X Seeker. Solid bikes that stay in great condition.
