What kind of bike is that?
It’s a question you’ll often hear from curious parents who can’t conceive of why a child would be zipping around on a bike without pedals. What they will immediately notice however, is that your child is probably even younger than their own and your child has got balance down cold.
That’s the advantage of a balance bike.
The perfect bike for school age kids 5 - 10 who are ready to learn to ride. The Go Glider is a lightweight balance bike for older kids that's as much fun to ride as it is valuable in teaching kids the art of balance.
When it comes to learning to ride a bike, not all children progress at the same rate.
The Go Glider is perfect for a school age child who is reluctant to learn to ride or is struggling with putting all the pieces together on a pedal bike. The Go Glider will allow you to take anxiety out of the equation
and let your child focus on the most critical aspect of learning to ride - balance.
This Pink Go Glider offers incredible stability and balance even at speeds of less than 2 mph thanks to a design that mimics the geometry of a downhill mountain bike. The 65 degree tilt of the seat puts the riders weight over the back tire, improving balance even at very low speeds.
Glide Bike's Go Glider supports a ride up to 125 lbs and has seat height that adjusts from 17.5" to 23" with an easy-release clamp. Kids will love the lightweight design that makes the bike more than half as light as a standard 16" pedal bike.
It's easy to move and control, increasing confidence and reducing fatigue as your child learns to ride.
The Go Glider lets kids explore their ability to balance in a way that's safer than a bike with training wheels because they always feel in control and never have to worry that the bike will wobble or flip. Your basic pedal bike sits too high off the ground, weighs too much and complicates the learning process.
For many kids, that means learning to ride a bike is more about fear than fun and that's no good. Skip the training wheels and let your rider experience the freedom of a balance bike.
Let’s your child be active early and join the family on walks, runs and rides. Your back will thank you – no more running in a hunched position.
