Do kids need to know how to ride a bike first?
Not at all. Children usually find electric balance bikes easier to learn, as they help children develop balancing skills without requiring pedaling. In fact, it is quite common for children to learn to ride an electric balance bike even before riding a regular bike.

Typical charging time is 2–4 hours, depending on the battery size and charger.
Are electric balance bikes waterproof?
They are designed to handle light splashes and normal outdoor conditions, but they should not be submerged or ridden in heavy rain conditions. Light washing is acceptable. When washing your bike, avoid high-pressure power washers or spraying water directly into the bottom frame area or charge port area.
Are the bikes chain-driven or hub motor?
Orion electric bikes are brushless hub drive only. We purposely do not use a chain drive system, as they inherently have issues. Brushless hub drives are virtually maintenance-free and will provide performance and reliability.
