Peppa Pig learned to ride a bike in the season one episode, appropriately titled “Bicycles,” and now young fans can learn to ride a bike along with Peppa thanks to a new collaboration between Hasbro Entertainment and Huffy.
The official Peppa Pig Kids Bike was released May 25 and features a specially-designed two-wheeler for children ages 3-5. The bicycle features a bright blue frame, pink handlebars, a yellow basket, and 12-inch pink and white wheels, with Peppa Pig characters and motifs throughout.
NEW RELEASE
Huffy 12″ Peppa Pig Kids’ Bike
For beginner riders, the kids bike also comes with a working bell and removable training wheels adorned with a fun floral print. Peppa is also seen on the included chainguard, which helps protect feet and laces from snagging as you pedal.
Speaking of pedal, this bike features a coaster brake rather than handle brakes, which means braking is applied by rotating the pedals in reverse until the wheels come to a complete stop.
This set includes the bike (with assembly instruction manual) and a sticker sheet with the entire Peppa Pig family so kids can decorate their ride just as they like it. A press release says the bike is built for “neighborhood adventures” while helping “new riders build confidence and create joyful memories.”
This is an officially-licensed release between Hasbro Entertainment and Huffy Bikes (which also makes adult rides of course).
