Review on 🚲 Top-rated Bixe 16" Pro Balance Bike for 5-9 Year Olds - No Pedal Training Bicycle for Big Kids by Kenny Hrdlicka

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for 7-8 year olds

If your child has trouble balancing on a bike, please don't wait like us. Buy this treadmill for her. Our son is 7 years old and has problems with movement planning although he is growing beyond that but they still show up every now and then. Do some motor planning, such as B. cycling, become a problem for him. We just got out his balance bike and let him train 15-30 minutes a day for about 4 days. We lowered the seat to the minimum height so that when he sits in the seat his feet are on the floor. At first he just stood in the bike (not on the seat) and walked around on the bike. So we told him to sit on the seat and use his legs to move the bike, which he did. The next time he rode it, we told him as soon as he picked up a little speed and started moving his feet to raise his legs. The great thing about a balance bike is that there are no pedals in the way. So if they get scared, they can put their feet on the ground immediately to keep them from falling. This bike even has 2 small pegs located on each side of the rear wheels to give them room to put their feet on them if they are comfortable enough to put their feet up while the bike is moving. In the last photo you can see that my son's right foot is on one of the footrests. These bikes are amazing. For those wondering what the difference is between these bikes and a smaller bike, there isn't much of a difference other than balance bikes don't have pedals so I think the kid feels more in control. Nothing stops their legs from stopping when they want or need to. Basically, these bikes are a size or two smaller than what they're meant to ride, and that's their whole purpose. This gives the child more control over the bike. Seems obvious but it really helps them learn to ride a bike. Thanks to the balance bike, our son learned to ride a bike in 4 days. Our only regret is that we didn't get it when he was much younger! I cannot express how proud we are not only of our son but also how proud he was of himself after learning to ride a bike. Please buy this bike, your child will also become an official racing cyclist in a few days. !Much luck!
