A kick bike is a relatively new invention that is only starting to gain traction as a means of transportation. Until recently this two-wheeled vehicle was primarily used for recreational purposes, mushing, riding on offroad trails, for downhill mountain riding, etc. Looking like a hybrid vehicle between a big-wheeled scooter and a bicycle, this innovation is set to combine the benefits of the two.

By getting oversized tires, a kick-bike would perform and handle much better than any modern adult scooter, at the same time there are studies claiming that riding a scooter offers more benefits for those who need to exercise (compared to a regular cycling).

It seems that the invention of powerful electric motors and lightweight battery packs is giving kick-bikes a much needed boost in the popularity. By producing these electric scooters with large wheels, adults are getting more options for commuting and getting around the neighborhood (to pick up groceries or cover that last mile more efficiently).

If you would like to find an alternative to cycling and get more exercise on a regular basis than a kick bike is a zero emission transportation gadget that you might want to check out. It is suitable for short distance riding but if you need to cover more miles, the battery-powered motors are always there to give you an electrified push up the hill.

In this video presentation we covered most of the modern kick bike models that are to be available this year. We shared the most important specifications that these models possessed, as well as their estimated buying prices, so you can make up your mind as a consumer.
