Frequently asked questions
What is the main difference between the KTM STACYC 12eDRIVE and 16eDRIVE models?
The 12eDRIVE is designed for younger beginners (typically 3–5 years old) with a 12” wheel size, while the 16eDRIVE suits slightly older or more confident riders (4–7 years old) with a 16” wheel size. The 16e also offers higher speed modes and a larger frame for growing riders.
What is the battery run time and how long does it take to charge?
Both models use the same 20V battery system. On a full charge, the ride time averages 30–60 minutes depending on the selected speed mode and rider weight. Charging typically takes 30–60 minutes using the included charger.
Are the KTM STACYC bikes safe for beginners?
Yes. Both models come with multiple speed modes, lightweight frames, and low seat heights to help children learn balance and throttle control safely. Always ensure your child wears proper protective gear, including a helmet.
Can the KTM STACYC 12eDRIVE or 16eDRIVE be used off-road?
Absolutely. Both are designed with kids’ off-road riding in mind. Their pneumatic tires, low center of gravity, and durable construction make them suitable for grass, dirt, and smooth trails. Avoid deep sand, mud, or water.
