[quote=Anonymous]TLDR: training wheels are hard to pedal, are heavy, and are slow. Balance bikes are lighter and faster to ride and easier to control. We have a Strider and my now 5YO was so freaking fast on it, he hopped on a friend’s bike and took off, never used training wheels. My 3YO wasn’t particularly interested in it so my MIL got him a bike with training wheels and he loved it... until he tried keeping up with his big brother on bike rides. He got tired and frustrated really easily. He picked up the balance bike and now can pretty much keep up and we can take actual bike rides. I really like them and think they’re great![/quote]
