Just this ride£600
Northern Ireland: free on every ride. Small orders under £50 are £5.
Ireland:£13 per ride, shown in euro at checkout.
We don't deliver to England, Scotland or Wales.
A helmet or other small item ordered with a ride travels free with it. Small items on their own are £8 to Ireland. Collecting from the shop in Cookstown is always free.
That is the whole delivery charge, shown before you pay. Every order goes tracked: you get a confirmation email when you order, and a second one with the tracking number the moment it leaves us. We do not deliver outside the UK and Ireland.
We are at 26 Lisnanane Lane, Cookstown, BT80 9BJ, with the workshop on site. Collecting means you can see it before you take it, and we hand it over built and checked.
Ring 028 8731 2118 before you set off so we have it ready.
It arrives nearly built. On most rides the handlebars and the front wheel need fitting, and the tools for both are in the box.
Collect it from the shop instead and we hand it over built, checked and charged, with nothing for you to do.
Every product carries a one year guarantee. What matters more is who honours it: repairs are done in our own workshop in Cookstown, not posted to a distributor and waited on.
Something not right? Ring 028 8731 2118 and talk to the person who will be fixing it.
You have 30 days from receiving it to ask to return it. Ring 028 8731 2118 or email us first — anything sent back without arranging it cannot be accepted.
The conditions, plainly:
It has to come back unused and unridden, in its original packaging.
Sending it back yourself is free within the 30 days.
If you want us to collect it, that starts at £20 and rises with size and weight.
A 2% restocking fee comes off the refund, to cover checking and repacking.
The Christmas Club lets you pay in instalments and collect nearer the time. Ring 028 8731 2118 and Andy will talk you through how it works, or read how it works.
If you are torn between two rides, unsure about your rider's size, or wondering whether this is too much for a first one — ring 028 8731 2118. You get Andy, who sells these and fixes them.
Most places selling kids' electric rides online are a website and a warehouse — no shop to call into, no workshop, and no one who knows the bike a year later.

Two people have to be happy with this bike.
The one riding it, and the one paying for it. The M5 is unusual in that it genuinely answers both.
What they see
It looks like a proper motorbike. V-twin styling, real seat, real forks — not a toy with stickers on it.
Engine sounds. Five of them, through a built-in speaker. Off is also an option.
Vapour from the pipes. Water vapour, cold, harmless — and it looks brilliant.
Lights they choose. RGB strips they set to whatever colour they're into that week.
What you see
You set the top speed. Three modes, chosen from your phone — not from the handlebars.
Brakes on both wheels. Discs front and rear, not a single back brake.
Suspension at the front. Because kids find every pothole in the yard.
It carries 80 kg. They will not grow out of it in a season.
The bit they will show everyone
Sounds, lights and vapour.
Five engine soundsThrough a speaker in the engine casing. Or silence, if you'd rather.RGB lightingAny colour they like, picked from the app. Solid, strobe or random.Vapour from the pipesCold water vapour, like a stage machine. Harmless, and it looks the part.
The speed limit lives on your phone, not on the bike.
Most kids' rides have a mode button on the handlebars — which means the limit lasts exactly as long as your child's patience. The M5 pairs to an app, and the speed mode is set there. Start them in the lowest mode while they learn the weight and the brakes, move them up when you're happy, and put it back down when the wee cousin gets a turn.
It's the single best reason to pick this over a cheaper 24V bike — and the reason we're comfortable selling it for an 8-year-old.
The bits that do the work
500W brushless motor
42 N·m of torque and no brushes to wear out. Pulls away up a slope instead of stalling on it.
Disc brakes, front and rear
Two independent brakes. On a bike that will do 24 km/h with a child on it, that matters more than the motor.
Front suspension, 14" air tyres
Sprung forks and air-filled tyres rather than solid plastic. Grass, gravel and a rough yard all stop being a problem.
36V 7.8Ah battery — 281 Wh
Charges in about 6 hours from flat. Roughly an overnight, or while they're at school.
Straight talk
The box says 30 km. We ran one down and got about 18 miles.
Range figures on kids' rides are usually a lab number — lightest rider, lowest speed mode, flat ground, no stopping — and real life comes in miles short. So we ran one down ourselves before we said anything.
About 18 miles is what we got, and 30 km is 18.6 miles — so for once the number on the box is close to honest. Yours will vary: a heavier rider, the top speed mode, hills and cold weather all take a bite out of it. But if you were braced for half what it says, this one is better than that.

Quick answers
What age is it actually for?
Eight and up, and it carries a rider of up to 80 kg — so it lasts well into the teens. For a younger or lighter first-timer, set the lowest speed mode in the app and let them find their feet.
What range will I really get?
We got about 18 miles out of one ourselves. The claimed figure is 30 km (18.6 miles), so it is close to the mark — but expect less with a heavier rider, in the top speed mode, or on hills.
How fast will it really go?
24 km/h (15 mph) flat out in the top mode. In the lowest mode it is a great deal slower, and that is where a new rider should start.
Is the smoke safe?
Yes — it is water vapour, like a stage machine. It is cold, it leaves nothing behind, and it stops the moment you switch it off.
Do I need the app to ride it?
No. The bike rides without a phone anywhere near it. The app is how you set the speed mode and change the lights and sounds.
Is it waterproof?
No. It is fine on a damp yard, but it is an electric vehicle with a battery and a speaker in it — keep it out of rain, puddles and away from a hose.
How big is it?
131 × 64 × 81 cm and 24.6 kg. It fits in most car boots with the seats down, and one adult can lift it, though two is easier.
Does it come built?
Mostly. Collect it from the shop and we hand it over built, checked and charged.
About this ride
The M5 Novi Kids Electric Ride-On Bike | 8yrs+ | 15mph, 3 Speed Modes in detail
The M5 is a full-size ride-on with proper bike styling — V-twin looks, a real seat, forks that move — with a 500W brushless motor behind it. It runs to 24 km/h (15 mph) across three speed modes, and the mode is set from an app on your phone rather than a button on the handlebars, so the top speed is your decision and not your child's. Disc brakes front and rear, front suspension, and 14-inch air-filled tyres that cope with grass and gravel. It carries a rider up to 80 kg, so it lasts well past the first season.
It also does the daft stuff properly: five sound effects through a built-in speaker, RGB lights the rider picks the colour of, and cold water vapour from the exhausts. All of it switches off.
