Future Riders: electric balance bikes for children aged 2 to 14

Future Riders is an online shop based in the United Kingdom that sells electric balance bikes, pedal karts, scooters and electric motorbikes for young riders. The company presents itself as a specialist retailer created by parents for parents, and its catalogue is organised around the age of the child, from 10–24 months up to 8 years and older. The site states that it stocks brands it trusts in the UK market, including Revvi, Amped, BERG, RFN, Stomp, KiddiMoto, EBOX and 10TEN.

The founder, Sam, is described as having years of experience in the industry and a future rider of his own. The business positions itself as a family-run operation, a detail that appears in the customer feedback section of the website.

Product range and categories

The catalogue is divided into several main groups: electric balance bikes, electric motorbikes, balance bikes, scooters, pedal karts, ride gear and spare parts. Within electric balance bikes, the shop lists sizes from 12 to 20 inches, including the Revvi range (12", 16", 16" Plus, 16" XL, 18", 20", 20" Plus and 24") and the Amped models (A10, A16, A16 Pro, A18 Comp, A20, A20 Pro, A20 Comp and A24 Comp). It also offers BERG balance bikes and pedal karts (Biky, Buzzy, Reppy, Go Twirl +, Go2 and Nexo scooters) and KiddiMoto models.

In the electric motorbike section, the site lists the RFN Warrior SX-E400, SX-E500 and SX-E700 R, as well as the RFN Youth SX-E5 and SX-E8. The EBOX brand and 10TEN MXE-RS are also mentioned. A separate category covers ex-demo units.

Ride gear and protection

Alongside the bikes, Future Riders sells riding clothing, helmets, gloves and body protection. The shop also has its own merchandise line. These products are grouped under the ride gear category and are presented as complements to the bikes.

Spare parts and maintenance support

The website includes a dedicated parts section organised by brand and model. It covers batteries and chargers, tyres and inner tubes, throttles, motors and controllers for Amped, Revvi, RFN and EBOX models. This allows owners to find components for specific bikes, such as the Amped A10, A16, A16 Pro, A18 Comp, A20, A20 Pro, A20 Comp and A24 Comp, the Revvi 12" to 24" range, the RFN SX-E400, SX-E500 and SX-E5, and the EBOX 1.6 and 2.0.

Future Riders also publishes how-to videos on YouTube to help customers carry out maintenance and repairs themselves. The company states that it remains contactable after the warranty expires and that it can assist with questions or issues via WhatsApp, where customers can send videos and photos.

Buying process, delivery and warranty

According to the site, most bikes require some self-assembly. All bikes come with the manufacturer's instructions, and buyers receive an email with a build video and, where necessary, a list of tools. The company offers multiple shipping options, including next-day delivery for orders placed before 12pm, and free shipping on all bikes to UK mainland.

Most of the brands offered come with a six-month warranty as standard. The shop also provides a bike size guide to help parents choose the right model for their child's age and height.

The website displays a rating of 5 stars based on 219 reviews. The reviews highlight fast delivery, personalised advice from Sam and a responsive customer service. One review mentions next-day delivery, while others praise the help received when choosing a bike. The company describes itself as rated 5 stars by its customers.
