Balance Bikes
What are balance bikes all about?
Balance bikes bikes serve the youngest members of the BMX families! Allowing 2-5 year olds to participate at the track! Balance bikes are designed specifically to help toddlers and young children learn balance and coordinator BEFORE pedaling. The simple, no-pedal design allows even the youngest children to learn to ride on two wheels, avoiding tricycle tip-overs and training wheel wobbles, and instilling considerable confidence and stellar bike handling skills.
