Product Details

Get ready for balance bikes! Already a massive success in Europe, balance bikes are set to become a worldwide trend. Tests in Germany and other countries clearly show the benefits of not using balancing aids (training wheels/stabilizers) on small bikes for children. The use of such balancing aids proved to stunt the gross motor skill development of a young child. In short, it is not beneficial to have your child play on bicycles with balancing aids. During trials conducted by the Sports Science Institute of the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa on YBIKE, the results clearly showed remarkable improvement in a child’s gross motor skills, with some tests showing 100% improvements.

Features:

2010 Oppenheim Platinum Toy of the Year Award Recepient!
Winner of the SABS Design Excellence Award
Winner of the South African Toy of the Year Award in 2007
Bigger wheels for safer riding on uneven surfaces
Two wheels at the back lending a small degree of balancing aid, but still allowing the child to lean to the side during turning, this also gives a safer ride as a standard trike tips over on sharp turns
High ground clearance and shape of lower body allows for safer riding over big obstacles
Bigger angle on front fork allows the wheel to be further forward from the kids centre of gravity, allowing for a safer turn
Internal fork locking mechanism reduces the tightness of a turn, also allowing for safer turning
Covered rear wheels stop little feet from being driven over
Ages 18 months and over
30 day warranty from date of purchase
Parental supervision, helmet, and protective gear recommended
Assembly required

Cubi from San Diego, CA	1.0 6/1/2011 Don't buy this product from Wayfair I was really looking forward to teaching my 19mo. son how to balance on a bike and the Y-Bike seemed to be the solution. The bike serves its purpose when he's on it but getting on and off the bike is DANGEROUS! He's fallen on the ground every time he attempts to mount or dismount his Y-Bike. Thank goodness I force him to wear his helmet because the falls are all on his head. [...] Was this helpful? Yes / No
granny from the shore in new jersey	4.0 4/30/2011 great 3 year old granddaughter loves it, just the right size ,jumped on it immediately, easy to put togeher Was this helpful? Yes / No
fitnessvixen from Montreal, Canada	5.0 2/27/2011 great product My son loves to ride around on "motorcycles" and he is quite rough with his toys. This bike is perfect for him, extremely sturdy. Was this helpful? Yes / No
LadyBug from Lebanon, PA	5.0 6/7/2010 Fun So Far! My mom actually ordered this for my 17 month old son. I know it's rated for 2 and up and I was skeptical but figured if he couldn't use it we would put it away until he was older. He's doing pretty well so far. He has a little trouble getting on it himself so I hold it for him and he hops on. It definitely forces him to work on balance. He hasn't taken off on his own with it yet but he does like it when I push him around. I can already tell that when he's just a little older this is going to be one of his favorites. As a side note, it's not cheaply made, but it's not something that should cost [$] either. Was this helpful? Yes / No
