A fantastic new foot to floor ride-on balance bike. The YBIKE has been engineered with safety in mind and designed to help improve your child's balance and coordination skills while having fun! The YBIKE is tough with its sports injection molded construction, which eliminates weak points and offers more design freedom, hence the sleeker curves and smooth, superior finish. When it comes to kids, safety is the main concern. For this reason the front wheel is considerably further forward, affording a bigger turning circle, which reduces the risk of falling over the front when turning. The back wheel is also covered to stop children from riding over their feet. The YBIKE body is designed for better clearance of obstacles and the larger wheels produce a safer ride on uneven surfaces. The YBIKE was awarded the prestigious Oppenheim Toy of the Year award for 2010.

Enjoy the freedom of the outdoors and the joys of cycling from as early as 2 years old. The YBIKE will help your child develop an early sense of balance and control, along with independence, self-confidence and happiness. Kids who tested the bike for 20-30 minutes twice a week showed the following improvements:

• Substantial improvements in both static and dynamic balance
• Substantial improvements in bilateral coordination
• Observable improvements in physical self-confidence 

These are just some of the YBIKEs great features:

Balance and movement:  Designed and engineered to help your child build the skills, balance and coordination needed to ride a big-kid bicycle.
Large wheels:  Larger wheels were designed for safer play and easier riding on uneven surfaces.
High ground clearance:  The ground clearance of the body is high enough to ensure safety regardless of terrain.
Safety First:  Other similar products use a process called blow-molding. It reduces design freedom and tends to have weak points unlike the YBIKE.
