Balance bikes

Here are just a few reasons why balance bikes are a great way to introduce your child to the joy of bike riding.

1. They’re easy to use
   “There are two parts to learning to ride a bicycle: balancing and pedalling,Balancebikes don’t have any pedals, so kids only have to focus on one thing – balancing. This makes the learning process a whole lot easier for them.”

Balance bikes also let kids use their feet to stop, steer and turn around, giving them more control, as well as the confidence to keep riding.

2. They build strength and coordination
   Balanceisn’t the only useful thing your child will learn from one of these bikes. The design of abalance bike encourages kids to use their arms and lift their legs when moving forward. This not only helps them to build up their strength, it also helps them to fine tune their motor skills, coordination and agility.
3. They’re a safer way to start riding
   The seat of abalancebike is a lot closer to the ground than on a regular bike. If your little one does fall they won’t have far to go. Plus, a balance bike can only go as fast as your child can push, which means you won’t have to worry about any high-speed crashes.

"Once your child has learnt how to balance, they’ll soon be able to move up to a regular bike without the need for training wheels."

4. They make exercise fun
   Riding a bike is not only a lot of fun – it’s a great way to get kids active  Kids as young as two years old will love zooming about on abalancebike, the earlier you encourage your kids to start exercising, the more likely they will develop healthy habits for life.
5. They’re convenient for parents
   The compact design ofbalancebikes makes them easy to transport. They’re small enough to pop on the backseat of the car and light enough to pick up and carry home if your child gets tired of riding.
6. They let you skip the training wheels
   Balancebikes take the hard work out of teaching your child how to ride. Once your child has learnt how tobalance, they’ll soon be able to progress to a regular bike without the need for training wheels. Once they’ve mastered their balance bike, they’ll be itching to ride with the ‘big kids’ in no time. In most instances a balance bike is lower in price than a bike with pedals and stabilisers
