Pink Mini Glider from Glide Bikes

The Mini Glider from Glide Bikes is a quality balance bike built for safety and fun. It's a popular choice for parents seeking a balance bike that can accomodate very young riders because its very light (8 lbs) and has a seat that lowers to 12". In addition to its light weight and low seat, the bike includes turn limiters, padded handlebars and stem and other safety features not seen in similar balance bikes in the same price range.

The perfect bike for kids age 2 - 5, the Mini Glider from Glide Bike weighs in at under 8 lbs making it easy to maneuver for even the youngest of riders. On the Mini Glider, your child is guaranteed to develop the motor skills and confidence to easily transition to a traditional pedal bike. The only thing that might slow that transition down is their love of the Mini Glider and the freedom it offers to roam on road and off. Unlike heavy pedal bikes, the Mini Glider is so easy to ride on grass or up hills that kids cherish it like a favored toy even after they've learned to ride their pedal bike.

This blue Mini 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 Mini Glider has a seat that lowers down to 12", allowing kids as young as two to firmly plant their feet on the ground and "walk" the bike as they start to learn. This activity is far more productive than pedaling around on a tricycle that does nothing to promote the mastery of balance. The Mini 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 little rider experience the freedom of a balance bike.

The Mini Glider balance bike from Glide Bike offers your child a fun way to learn how to ride a bike puts the emphasis on balance and steering first.
