I still remember learning to ride my first bike. It was pink, with tassels on the handles, and came complete with the dreaded, clacking training-wheels. I refused to ride it to school until they came off so that I could be one of the 'big kids'! Even then I spent my first few school runs falling off on footpaths. If only these awesome balance bikes had been around when I was learning to ride.

A balance bike, or run bike is a training bicycle that helps children learn balance and steering. It has no pedals, no crankset and chain, and no training wheels.

This Wooden Balance Bike provides an easy, safe, and fun way for children to build their confidence. These quality wooden balance bikes are designed to develop your child’s balance and co-ordination in preparation for riding their first push-bike.

The rider first walks the bicycle while standing over the saddle, then while sitting in the saddle. Eventually, the rider feels comfortable enough to run while riding the bicycle, then to lift both feet off the ground and cruise while balancing on the two wheels.

Manufacturers of balance bikes believe that children can learn to bicycle faster because they learn to balance and countersteer first and then to pedal later when progressing to a push-bike. With a Wooden Balance Bike you could send your kids to school training-wheel free! This Wooden Balance Bike is a new model made of lighter wood meaning it is easier for your child to maneuver or carry.
