[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Balance bikes themselves are stupid - they are just regular bikes with the pedals removed but someone involved in selling bikes figured out parents are stupid and will buy anything so started selling bikes without pedals. But tooling around on a bike with no pedals is actually a great way to get a sense of balance and learn how to ride a bike - [b]my first kid figured out how to ride a bike in an afternoon of tooling around on his bike with the pedals removed [/b]after struggling with it for more than 2 years with training wheels. Kid #2 (who is more athletic) figured out how to ride a bike in about 10 minutes without a "balance" bike.[/quote] What you are describing is a balance bike.[/quote]
