push bike

Two-wheeled pedaler

A push bike is a bicycle—one you propel by pushing pedals, as opposed to a motorcycle or electric bike.

The term is chiefly British and Australian: I rode my push bike to the shops.

It distinguishes human-powered cycles from motorized ones, though in everyday use it simply means an ordinary bicycle.
