1:33 Nice bar setup there. Now go ride down this steep hill.
Good video once it got going. The start was unnecessarily slow. Helmets should be encouraged, not seen as a possible choice.
learned it the hard way. no assistance wheels, no helmet. just a 20″ bmx and hoping for the best at age 6. 😀
Woman sounds so deflated
Why not just use training wheels then remove them once the child is comfortable. So after purchasing this bike, I have to go out and buy another bike….
Great video!!!!!
thank you for this video !
Here is my son riding his bike. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vwbmil5qYRw
Disappointed that a Bicycle ridning instructor wouldn’t always promote and teach safety. Helmet is not an option.
ke chevere
I am Dutch and we just moved the sidewheels a little bit higher every month and finally removed them.
Valuable tips for teach a kid to learn balance.
This is perfect. I used these tips for an older child who had no riding experience. He was able to learn in a week. I’ll be using it again for my other children. Thank you!
…breaks should work…no shit
An interesting spin on this concept; use a scooter to teach the balance and steering concept. I did this with my son and when I noticed that he could balance the scooter and glide after about 2wks so I decided to see if he could transfer those skills to a bike. Sure enough it worked he was riding at 3 1/2 yrs old. Same worked with is sister she used the scooter for 7 mths them just jumped on a BMX and just started to ride balance and streering long since under control only pedaling to master which took no more than 5 mins. She is 7 1/2 yrs old.
Great detailed video. We chose the Kazam Balance Bike and love it!
*I and my wife want to say that this learning program is absolutely amazing [Check Details Here ==**https://www.facebook.com/Teach-Your-Child-To-Read-731975013638587/app/208195102528120** ]. We especially like the fact that our kids can record themselves sounding out the words. We also love that the program teaches beginning, middle, and end sounds, so that the little learners can see and hear how a letter and its sound can be used in different places of a word.*
This is a useful instructional vid. However, an important safety check has been missed! You should always check if the handlebars are secured tightly! The green handlebars on the 4 year old’s bike at 1:33 are barely attached to the stem- they are off centre by nearly 20 mm, and the stem has gripped only 20% of the fat midsection of the handlebar.
Thank you for the video! My child is 20 months old now. Can I already take the bike for her? We were thinking of taking a roller for her, but many people advice us to take a bike like this. I am just unsure about the age.
Nice video, useful information.
its good to a child who did know how to ride a bike
balance bike its interesting
nice tips.
My daughter is not make balance what I can do for this
My 20 months old son just started to use his new balance bike but he is always walking in the standing position, he does not use the saddle. How can we “convince” him to use it? Maybe he is too young and will naturally progress in the next few months?
thank you for this viedo
The most important thing to learn is “Countersteering” .Look it up on wiki. At speeds over 15 mph you can feel it more pronounced To Turn left turn the handlebars right. The idea than leaning makes you turn is wrong. When I learned of Countersteering. I was able to stand on the 2 right side pegs on my motor bike and turn left or right. Countersteering is needed on all 2 wheel bikes ,motorized or not.
We purchased this bike from Amazon for our 2 1/2 year old. By the time he turned 4 he was riding a regular bike without training wheels! Definitely worth the price!https://www.amazon.com/Strider-Classic-Balance-Months-Years/dp/B00IZXBZQW/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1477059368&sr=8-3&keywords=strider+bike&linkCode=ll1&tag=als12585-20&linkId=2ccc4491ec13d9143abb4e8953926733
balance bike, I’ll just remove the pedals on a regular bike and it’s done

Great video!
F this video
I found that the 2 biggest steps towards getting mine riding the bike was “sit sit run run” Making sure their BUM IS ON THE SEAT when they run. If they stand over the bike they learn little to nothing.
Next, IF you help them at all, always place your hand in the center of their back, just to push gently. (especially up hills)
this gives them the ability to learn to glide, without having to go down hill and risk losing control.
NEVER touch the seat, NEVER touch the handlebars.
Using the hand in the center of the back, gives them the opportunity to glide longer, to keep moving, and they “feel” safer with your hand there. even though it does not help them balance.
excellent.
What a great video. Thinking about getting Sofia one for her 2nd birthday. This has helped!!
“if you choose for your child to wear a helmet”…if?
Helmets, wtf. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtJ5Nb_tuYE&t=14s.

thank you for this video !
Im 14. Worth it.
Crazy, but I actually taught myself to ride a 2-wheeler long before balance bikes. As a kid in the early 1950s I used a friends 20″ bike & just coasted down a hilly sidewalk without touching the pedals until I got the hang of balancing & steering. Only took a couple days to move to the pedaling.
