Meet the Belter 20

The Belter 20 is a beautifully crafted, lightweight kids’ bike with a 6061-grade aluminium frame and clean belt drive, designed for adventure beyond school. Its progressive geometry and 1.95” tyres enhance stability, traction, and comfort on varied terrain, helping kids age 6-8 safely perfect their pedalling skills.

Featuring a kid-proof 4-speed hub with a carbon belt drive, this award-winning bike ensures smooth, low-maintenance rides. With Ritchey Logic components and an intuitive twist shifter, the Belter 20 provides young riders with ultimate control and durability.

Closer look

The full story

Super lightweight beautifully crafted aluminium.

Super lightweight aluminium, beautifully crafted to last for years

We use 6061-grade aluminium in our bikes. It's a fantastic material. Strong yet light, weatherproof and super robust.

It’s also a responsive material transferring more power from the pedals to the wheels. In real terms, this means it’s easier to pedal further for longer.

The benefit is a bike that literally goes the distance.

Geometry to get kids moving

Bike geometry is at the heart of safety, fun, and progress. Even exploring the local neighbourhood demands a capable geometry if we want our kids to safely acquire proper riding skills.

Like all of our Belters, the Belter 20 has a more progressive geometry so that kids can tackle the tightest turns and steepest slopes with confidence and capability.

The Gold Standard for Gearing

The Belter 20 integrates a wide range 4 speed geared hub into our legendary carbon belt drive to produce the ultimate urban explorer.

So whether it’s sailing up hills or riding in the rain you can trust these impressively light, and incredibly durable gears to perform.

It’s this combination that won the Belter, the only kids bike, ever to win the bike industry's most coveted prize, the Eurobike Gold Award.

Fantastic finish touches

The Belter 20 is equipped with anatomically designed Ritchey Logic bar and stem, and a twist shifter for intuitive gear changing.

Ritchey Logic have been at the forefront of component design for the past 50 years. We’ve collaborated with them for over a decade, producing some of best age specific components to ever grace a kids’ bike.

Tyres that won't throw them off track

The Belter 20 runs 1.95”, fast rolling tyres as standard, so that developing riding skills is made easier, safer and more enjoyable than the 1.5" tyres typically found on kids bikes.

Their extra volume and grip provide added control over the lumps and bumps and give the cushioning that makes riding more enjoyable.

1.95” tyres are also much more stable, especially in tricky conditions. With a bike that is more stable, you can shorten the rear triangle, and that improves handling and manoeuvrability making the bike more capable still.

Drehschaltgriff zu schwer

„Ausgestattet mit einer kindgerechten 4-Gang-Nabe sorgt dieses preisgekrönte Bike für sanfte, unkomplizierte Fahrten. Mit Ritchey Logic-Komponenten und einem intuitiven Drehschaltgriff bietet das Belter 20 jungen Fahrern maximale Kontrolle und Haltbarkeit.“ und „Perfekt für 6- bis 8-Jährige, die ihr Pedalieren perfektionieren und verbessern.“

Na ja, der Drehschaltgriff ist zu hart, wenn man in den leichteren Gang schalten möchte (z.B vom Gang 2 zu Gang 1). Das macht es fast unmöglich für ein 6- jähriges Kind - besonders beim Berg hochfahren.

Mein Sohn fährt seit er 3 ist, sehr gerne Fahrrad und zwar sehr gut und ziemlich anspruchsvoll und er ist ein starkes Kind. Er hatte davor das Belter 16 und wir waren mega zufrieden, leider ist der Drehschaltgriff bei dem Belter 20 zu hart. Sonst ist es ein sehr tolles Fahrrad.

Es wäre grandios eine Lösung dafür zu finden.

Belter 20

My 6 years old daughter has been ridden this bike for 3 months now. She loves the bike, it is easy to ride. However the shifting mecanism is really stiff to shift lighter gear. She has to use both hands to shift lighter gear. This means that she has to stop first and then twist the gearhandle.

Othervise the bike is really good.

Unfortunately the read hub is broken and its impossible to fix.

We have had 3 early riders for 3 kids and have been satisfied overall. Especially the built quality is high. Besides the overall known fact that the gear shifting on the belter 20 is almost impossible for kids, the rear hub now broke (3 years after purchase). Its out of warranty and it seems impossible to get spare parts in Germany. I ended up using ChatGPT to ask for alternatives (to the mounted RFRX4 rear hub) and got myself a RXRF5 rear hub from the same manufactures, Sturmey Archer. Turns out, its not compatible. Very disappointing and not sustainable.

Could bei great bike, but...

This ist not the first earlyrider bike we bought.

The first one was 16“ version and it was really best bike for the kids I ever seen. Exactly that’s why I ordered next one when 16“ been too small.

And I can say, that the experience is terrible.

The grips are slipping from handlebar, but the biggest issue is the gear switching system. My daughter simply can‘t change the gear during the ride. The gears can be switched only with both hands because of very high tension. So I can’t recommend this bike to anybody.

Das Fahrrad selbst ist toll. Leider ist es mit schmutzigen Reifen und mit einem

Lackschaden gekommen. Ist es ein 2nd Hand Rad?
