The Smoothy features a unique cast Magnesium frameset that’s extremely functional and visually awesome. Within the design, Vitus has incorporated a useful carry handle for Mum & Dad, and some integrated footrests for that game-changing moment when your child has the confidence to glide.

Smooth and Reliable Performance

Vitus has taken inspiration from their adult bikes for the steering controls, with the headset upper and lower bearings making the steering control smooth and reliable, with 20mm of spacers under the stem allowing you to fine-tune the height of the handlebars. A shorty stem and quality set of aluminium handlebars with a slight back sweep, and some soft and comfortable TRP grips round out the front of the bike.

Comfortable and Secure Agility and Control

Saddles are often overlooked on balance bikes, but not here. Vitus has a specially designed balance bike saddle that features a ‘scoop’ shape so your child will be sat in the correct position all of the time. This ensures they can steer effectively and are positioned perfectly, giving themselves the best possible chance of balancing effectively. Also, the seatpost is fully height adjustable allowing room for growth

Lightweight, Dependable and Cool Balance Bike

The lightweight wheels feature a set of premium aluminium 12 spoke hubs, helping to keep weight to a minimum, and giving the bike a very cool look. Plus, the wheels are fitted with CST IRONKID 12 x 2.1” tyres which have been carefully chosen to deliver excellent rolling capability on both hard and soft ground, so the bike remains efficient to glide no matter what the surface.

Please Note: To continue to strive to make better and safer products we are in the process of removing all valve dust caps from the Vitus Smoothy. We felt like this was the right thing to do with the potential (no matter how small) of the caps being a choking hazard to small children.

Children should wear a safety helmet at all times
Carry out regular visual inspections to the bike ensuring all bolts are tightened to the recommended torque settings

About the Vitus brand

First emerging as a frame builder in 1970s France, Vitus Bikes played a pivotal role in pioneering the design and manufacture of lugged and bonded aluminium frames, the most iconic being the 979, groundbreaking at the time and still prized among collectors today. In 1982 we engineered and developed the 979 Carbone, one of the very first frames to take carbon fibre technology from the aerospace industry and apply it to bikes. Their tradition of innovation continued throughout subsequent decades with frames which included the 1991 ZXI monocoque carbon frame, the spirit of which lives on in their latest generation of monocoque road bikes. Without exception, each of the bikes – from their singlespeed commuter to the high-end carbon road model – won plaudits for their ride quality, build and great value. The reviews confirmed what they knew all along, and they intend to improve on these already test-winning models as Vitus push forward with the development of this great brand of bikes. “Credit has to be due to a brand that has come back from the ashes and rather than milk the prestige of the old days, has set its sights on the biggest players on the scene.” CYCLIST magazine. Vitus bikes have been tested in many of the top cycling titles and websites across all disciplines. Their bikes have won group tests across Europe and are regarded as some of the best on the market.

Vitus Smoothy Balance Bike is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 10.
Rated 5 out of 5 by topgrunter from Robust, Quality Balance Bike I wanted a balance bike for our Grandson, that would survive the rough and tumbles of go anywhere use, looked stylish with good lines and curves rather stick out parts that may cause injury. After some research the Vitus Smoothy seemed to fit the part and we were not disappointed. It looks great and he loves it. It is very light, so easy for him to get on a get going and not too bad to carry when you inevitably have to. Excellent product

Rated 5 out of 5 by Carlos44 from Great little balance bike Great quality balance bike, was easy to put together and looks great! Nice and lightweight too, with the blow up tyres making for a comfortable ride.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Hornfan from Missig Part We were disappointed to discover that the Vitus Smoothy we had purchased was missing a bolt to the seat clamp. After going to several LBS, we were able to procure the missing part. Our son is happy with his Smoothy and the remainder of the balance bike seems well built. Just hope they improve their quality control and you get one without missing parts.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Xanderbubs from First bike for our first child So happy with this bike! It was an impulse buy leading up to Christmas for our son who is only 10 months old but so glad I brought it. It looks great and is easily the coolest looking balance bike I have seen

Minimum height?

What is the minimum inseam recommended? Thank you so much
Asked by: PauloCasalta
Hi, The min and max saddle height from the ground is listed on the product page. This is 33cm and 44cm. So the min inside leg measurement would be 33cm and the maximum on or around 44cm.

What bolts are connecting the head set?

The bottom bolt has fallen out of the new vitus smoothy I bought my boy a couple of weeks back and need to get a replacement ASAP.
