Kids Ride Shotgun Dirt Hero V2 - 14" Children's Balance Bike - white

Off-Road Balance Bike for MTB Kids

The Dirt Hero off-road balance bike is a scaled-down enduro machine designed specifically to help kids explore trails on a balance bike. The Dirt Hero works with both 12" and 14" wheels, essentially offering two balance bikes in one.

Switching from 12" to 14"—instead of moving straight to a 16" bike—gives your kids more time to develop key skills and a love for off-road riding—so they’ll be ready when it’s time for the next step and will have already learned how to use the brake.

MTB Tires for MTB Kids

Pneumatic mtb tires are essential for off-road riding. The deep-tread tires significantly increase traction and give your little shredder the confidence needed to tackle the trails. Pneumatic tires also act as suspension, absorbing bumps and roots along the way for a smoother ride.

The Perfect Brake for Balance Bikes

Learning how to brake before pedaling is an important step in the learning process for mtb kids. Hydraulic disc brakes are the best option for balance bikes. Not only do they offer more power, but they also require far less hand strength than V-brakes, making them ideal for little hands. Shotgun has developed the world’s first child-safe rotor guard so parents can have peace of mind.

Easily Accessible Brake Lever

The Magura MT A2 brake lever has one of the best reach adjustments on the market—which means you can position the lever much closer to the handlebars than with other brakes, a crucial factor for ease of use for small hands with limited range.
