What it is:
The Prince Lionheart balanceBIKE is a great way to introduce bicycling to your toddler. Originally a European concept, the balance bike helps kids learn to balance while on a two wheeled vehicle. Balance is a more difficult skill to learn than pedalling. Learning to balance first, kids can zip along on their balance bike and feel like a big kid on their two-wheeler.
Once the balancing skill is mastered, it's time to move to a "real" two-wheeler with pedals. Using a balance bike instead of a tricycle helps kids transition to a full size bicycle more quickly and confidently.
Why we like it:
1. The Prince Lionheart bike is made from plantation grown birch. This means it is a responsibly forested and re-planted, renewable source of wood.
2. This bike features real rubber tires with an inflatable innertube. This feature makes maintenance of the bike tires much simpler than the solid core/wood tires.
3. The seat has 2 height adjustments to grow with your child - the lower setting is 14" and the higher setting is 16" to coordinate with your child's inseam.
4. Convenient bike stand helps you keep it clean, in good condition and out of the way of other items in your garage or shed.
