For many parents, the idea of buying an electric bike for their kid might initially seem unnecessary. Huffy is betting on exactly that with its Quantis Kids eBike, a 24-inch electric bicycle designed for riders aged 12 and up. Instead, it’s built around the familiar experience of riding a bicycle, just with a bit of electric assistance to make longer rides and steeper hills less intimidating. But one of the biggest barriers to riding is that cycling can simply feel hard, especially in hilly neighborhoods or on longer rides with friends. Longer rides become realistic.
