Teaching Your Child How To Ride a Bike, Made Easy
When you were a child, do you remember the exciting transition between a tricycle and a bicycle? Finally, you were old enough to be one of those big kids, who no longer had to ride on a dorky tricycle or had to ride in the grocery cart baby seat. You felt all grown up, didn’t you?
What if I told you that there was a way that your child could start immediately with a bicycle, while skipping the entire tricycle stage? While all the other children were peddling around in a tricycle, your child could be honing in on their more advanced skills, such as balance and dexterity, which would provide your child with a head-start on life.
The Ferbedo Runbike is a new concept training bike that has swept across Europe, and is only now available in North America. The Runbike allows children, as young as 3, to pick up the advanced fine motor skills required to ride a bike, while all other children are still riding training tricycles. Instead of transitioning from a tricycle, to a bicycle with training wheels, to a full-fledged bicycle, there is no intermediary step for Runbike riders. Runbike riders can transition from the Runbike DIRECTLY to a full-fledged bicycle.
The Runbike is similar to a bicycle, except it does not have pedals. This allows young children to get accustomed to balancing on a bicycle, without you having to worry about him or her falling. If your child ever loses their balance, all he or she has to do is to step down with both feet on the ground. While in motion, the Runbike carries a child on its adjustable seat, who can then propel himself or herself by pushing off the ground with both feet.
For younger children, oversteering may cause a regular bike to fall on its side, especially when going down hills. This is why the Run bike has a lock system which, when activated, can limit the steering range from 12 o'clock to 10am and 2 pm. Therefore, you can supervise your child while he or she goes down a hill for his or her first time!
Most importantly, the Runbike is extremely cost-effective. It currently sells for only $72, which is no more than the cost of a regular tricycle. Purchase a Runbike for your child today and give them that extra head start on life!
