Mike Hailwood Kiddimoto

Written by 
Ride like the legend - not quite but your nipper can have a go! Ride like the legend - not quite but your nipper can have a go! Kiddimoto
In honour of Mike Hailwood’s TT comeback victory in 1978, Kiddimoto launches a new Hailwood Kiddimoto Hero. Based upon the red and green Ducati livery and bearing the #12 on numberplate and tail unit, the new Hailwood rep is reminiscent of the bike that Mike The Bike rode to that famous win after an 11 year break at ‘The Island’. The original red and silver Hailwood Hero, based upon the MV Agusta, has proven to be a hugely popular model within the Kiddimoto stable, and indeed was the catalyst to the evolution of the ever-popular Kiddimoto Heroes range. The Kiddimoto Heroes range celebrates the world motorcycle champions of the past 50 years.
The new Hailwood model joins the ranks alongside fellow Heroes Joey Dunlop, James Toseland, Carl Fogarty, Nicky Hayden, Troy Corser, Kevin Schwantz, Eddie Lawson, Wayne Rainey, Neil Hodgson and the legendary Barry Sheene. Kiddimotos aren’t just cool toys, they’re a child’s first bike and an important tool for child devlopment disguised in a fun and desirable package. Aimed at 2-6 year old children, Kiddimoto’s multi-award winning range of wooden balance bikes are an ideal proven, fun, learning platform designed to teach the art of balance and co-ordination at an early age. Based on four iconic motorcycle designs of Chopper, Scooter, Superbike and Scrambler, Kiddimotos don’t have pedals or brakes, letting the child control their own movements, developing important motor skills from an earlier age, helping them to progress to a proper bicycle or starter motorcycle without needing to use stabilisers.

All Kiddimoto wooden balance bikes are constructed from high quality, recyclable, natural birch plywood and are both very safe and fun as a form of supervised educational play. The Kiddimoto Heroes range retails for just £119.99 and all models are available direct from www.kiddimoto.co.uk or through our extensive UK dealer network.
