Gingersnap 12" wheel
Regular price £165.00 GBPBobbin is the home of retro bikes. The Gingersnap is our iconic kid's range and can be spotted on all the best instagram feeds. The Gingersnap 12” is a miniature version of our adult bikes, designed for ages 2-4. It has all the classic practical Bobbin touches you would expect: colour-matched mudguards and chainguard, smart brown grips, matching stabilisers (training wheels) a ding dong bell and an embossed Bobbin saddle. Hand-made in small batches, it features a gloss paint finish and all-important wicker basket. Perfect for carrying teddy bears, pebbles, conkers etc. Before Bobbin came along, kids bikes were either very tacky or plain boring. Now you can buy your mini-me a bike you actually want for yourself!

- The bike arrives in a box. The handlebars, front wheel, front mudguard, pedals and saddle must be attached.
- The basket is attached simply by the straps. Only the Gingersnap 24" comes with a basket support.
- The box contains basic tools. You will also need scissors, pliers, a screwdriver and a pump.
Some things to note:
- The basket is not machine made, it is hand woven from natural materials. Inconsistencies in weave, finish and colour are to be expected and are part of its charm.

Gingersnap Balance
Regular price £100.00 GBPBobbin is the home of retro bikes. The Gingersnap is our iconic kid's range and can be spotted on all the best instagram feeds.

What is a balance bike? It’s a basic training bike without pedals, a chain or brakes. Riders “scoot along” with their feet to get the hang of balancing and steering. It's a great way to get your mini-me started on their own Bobbin adventures.
