FAQ: How to choose a balance bike for a child

1. At what age can a balance bike be used?

- 1.5–2 years: lightweight models with a low seat (the child should touch the ground with his entire foot).

- 3+ years: models with adjustable steering wheel/seat, inflatable wheels and brakes (optional).

2. Which frame material is better?

- Plastic: lightweight, but less durable

— Aluminum/steel: stronger, slightly heavier

— Wood: stylish design, but often without adjustments

Advice: Choose plastic or aluminum for toddlers.

3. How to choose the weight and size?

— Weight: up to 3 kg — for children under 3 years old.

— Seat height: should correspond to height (adjustable models are preferable).

4. Which tires to choose?

— Inflatable rubber tires: smooth ride, better grip — for parks and off-road.

5. Are hand brakes needed?

— For children 1.5-3 years old - no

6. What options are useful?
