Toddler Bikes

Executive Summary by Eleanor Pelc

Toddler Bike

There are many toddler ride-on toys and tricycles, but now we have toddler bikes! These bikes make it easy to learn to ride a bike. Below, I give you about 7 things to consider when choosing a toddler bike

1. The age and size of the rider - Some toddler bikes will accommodate kids as young as 1 year old.

2. The Adjustability of the bike -A wider range of adjustability will increase the lifespan of the toddler bike and ensure even the smallest youngest toddler will be able to straddle the bike and then use it for many years. Most of the wooden balance bikes are very limited in their range of adjustability

3. Foot pegs, integrated foot rests or neither-an integrated foot rest is the best of both worlds… someplace to rest your feet while gliding, but without foot pegs being in the way while running.

4. Brakes - Toddlers don’t have the physical strength to operate a hand brake.

5. Tires- Traditional air filled tires or Puncture proof foam tires are your choices. The new maintenance free foam tires are lightweight, all -terrain, puncture proof and very durable. No more flat tires!

6. Weight- A very light toddler bike will ensure your toddler feels confident and in control.

7. Price - The prices for toddler bikes range from under $100 to over $300! When shopping for a bike for your toddler pay attention to the details listed above and I am confident you will find the bike that has it all for under $100!
