Real Zippis. Real kids.

Sent in by parents from Hobart to Cairns. No staging, no studio, no filters — just kids who got their hands on a Zippi and didn't want to get off.

02In their words

What the parents say.

Lifted straight from emails, reviews and post-purchase notes. Lightly edited for typos — nothing else. With over 2400+ reviews there has been plenty to say about Zippi!

★★★★★
“He hasn't taken the helmet off in three days. Honestly thought he'd be too small for it but the throttle limiter is gentle enough that he's riding by himself already. Cheaper than the Stacyc we almost bought and feels just as well-made.”
★★★★★
“Got the Rippa 16" for our daughter's birthday. The look on her face when she opened the box was worth it on its own. She's been hammering the local pump track for three weeks now and it's bulletproof. Build quality is the standout.”
★★★★★
“What sold me was talking to a real person on the phone before I ordered. We had questions about sizing for a tall five-year-old and Carmen answered everything like it was her own kid. Two months in, zero issues, kid is obsessed.”
★★★★★
“Second Zippi for our family — the older one is now on the Rippa 20" and his little sister inherited the original Ride 10". Both bikes have survived three boys and now her. The fact that spares ship from Tassie still blows me away.”
★★★★★
“Bought the Rebel 24" Pro for our 13-year-old after he outgrew his pedal bike. He's a terror on the bush trails behind the house. Suspension is no joke. We've had it 8 months and not a single warranty issue.”
★★★★★
“Honest review: my four-year-old refused to ride a regular balance bike for two years. Two minutes on the Ride 10" and she was hooked. The throttle gave her confidence. By the end of the week she was off the training wheels.”
