It only took one ride for my kid to get comfortable without the training wheels. Tried other bikes on the market, just way too heavy a transition from the balance bike. Now he wants to go out for a ride at every opportunity. Well worth the investment.
This bike is amazing. My 4yo went from balance bike to independently riding on this within 2-3 weeks. It’s lightweight and easy to carry when he gets sick of it and so well made.
Nanny got my boy this bike as he was getting frustrated with his other bike and wouldn’t ride with no training wheels.
He learnt to ride within seconds on this bike! As soon as he hoped on he told dad to let go and off he went, not asking for help again. Within days he was riding at skate parks and keeping up with the big kids.
Highly recommend, it’s a really great bike and my son doesn’t want to do anything but ride.
It is an excellent bike. My son transitioned from his balance bike to this one beautifully. I originally bought a 20 inch sized bike of a different brand, but he was reluctant to move off of the balance bike. He really needed to get this 16 inch. He used this 16 inch as a balance bike at first for a few days to get used to the new size and the hand brakes. Then one day he just asked to add the pedals. Within 5 minutes he was cycling by himself with the pedals. We didn't do any running along to catch him, he was confident and it was like just adding one final skill to the other skills of balancing and handbrakes. The bike was easy to put together out of the box and the colour is great. This is the bike you want for transitioning on from balance bikes.
My 4yo really loves this bike - it’s wonderful quality and the colour is great. The lightweight frame means he can ride it to daycare and I can carry it home afterwards. The team at base bikes were also super easy to deal with. My only regret is not getting a kickstand!!
