Read on to find out why a balance bike might be a great choice for your little cyclist… What are the benefits of balance bikes?

Frog Bikes are one of the most popular brands of quality kids bikes, and they have three balance bikes in their offering - including the large 14" wheel Tadpole Plus. The new 14” wheeled balance bike fits children from approximately 3 years old and is perfect for mastering two-wheel balance ready for their first pedal bike. That’s 12-inch, but if you’re after a different size, there are still bargains to be had on 10-inch, 14-inch and 16-inch Spider-Man bikes.

I have a Strider 14x and my son loves it but we are in the US so it has coaster brakes (meaning no brakes at all in balance mode). This gives children time to practise using brakes to slow down and stop, rather than using their feet. For kids aged 2-5 can learn to balance using their legs for support which enables faster balance skills and quicker progression to a full pedal bike.

It has a rear brake, but not a front brake, which will help ease a child into learning to brake gently.We've reviewed a few Woom Bikes (including their 14" wheel pedal bike, the Woom 2) and our reviewers have always been very impressed with the quality and longevity of these bikes.
