Guardian Ethos

The SureStop system uses a single lever to engage both the front and rear brakes simultaneously. It is engineered to distribute braking force automatically, which helps prevent the bike from tipping forward during sudden stops.

The steering limiter restricts how far the handlebars can turn, which helps prevent oversteering and accidental crashes for new riders. It is removable, so you can take it off once your child gains more confidence and bike control.

No, training wheels are not included with the Guardian Ethos. This model is designed for children who are ready to learn balance and coordination on two wheels.

The bike arrives partially assembled and requires some setup, such as attaching the handlebars, front wheel, and pedals. Most parents find it straightforward, but you should set aside about 20 to 30 minutes to complete the process.

The bike weighs 17.5 lbs. While steel frames are durable, this model is designed to be lightweight enough for a young child to maneuver, pick up if it falls, and pedal comfortably.

Yes, the Guardian Ethos is designed to grow with your child. It features a quick-release lever for easy seat height adjustments and an adjustable brake lever reach to accommodate smaller hands.
