It is designed for 2-5-year-olds. The minimum leg length of a rider is 13.7 inches, and the recommended weight limit is 66.1 pounds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placeholder-wrapper relative w-full border-t border-b border-border-light col-span-full my-3 md:col-span-10 md:col-start-2\">\n<div class=\"mb-[30px] min-h-[30px] text-center\"><span class=\"font-utility-4 font-medium tracking-[1px] text-neutral-500 uppercase\">ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>While the bike is, as noted in the name, a balance bike, for kids, it\u2019s painfully lacking the quintessential Tesla autopilot feature and ludicrous levels of electrically powered acceleration. That being said, there is a \u201cKids Pedal Power\u201d tee to go with the bike, even if the bike notably does not have pedals.<\/p>\n<p>The bike, for kids who can\u2019t balance good but wanna learn to do other stuff good too, is listed for $225 USD on Tesla.com.
