Meet the JR-12 — the perfect first electric bike for children aged 4–6 years. It brings the trusted Talaria name to the next generation in a lightweight, confidence-inspiring package designed to make those first rides feel natural from the very start.

Built to Grow Their Confidence

Two ride modes — a gentle 6 mph and a livelier 10 mph — let you start slow and open the JR-12 up as your child’s skills develop. A push-button start and simple twist throttle keep controls intuitive, while the adjustable 450–520 mm seat grows with your rider.

Real Junior Ability

This is no toy. 12-inch wheels on CST 12 × 2.0 tyres, an oil-spring upright front fork and a rear disc brake give proper control on grass, gravel and the local track. The 22 V 5 Ah lithium battery charges in around 2.5 hours and delivers up to 9.3 miles (15 km) of riding between charges.

The First Step Into Talaria

When they’re ready to size up, the JR-16 — or the X3 Mini — is the natural next move. Every JR-12 is covered by a 12-month parts warranty and a 6-month battery warranty, bought direct from Talaria UK with UK-wide delivery. Genuine spares are available from the Parts Shop.
