Why are Banwood bicycles and accessories good for first time riders?

Who (what ages) are balance bikes for?
Early riders from 2 and a half to 5 years old.
What are the benefits of a balance bike?
A balance bike allows your little one to independently develop their balance and coordination.
Why are balance bikes a great first step for kids learning how to ride a bicycle?
Balance bikes are the ideal first bicycle and the best way to introduce your little one to cycling as it naturally supports their development by promoting mobility and steering to ease the transition to a pedal bike.
Why are helmets so important?
Banwood kids helmets are the ideal for the smallest ones to keep safe when joining in for a ride. Our helmets have a durable ABS outer shell for the maximum protection and are lined with a soft inner foam.
How do we know which helmet size is right for us?
Our Child Safety Helmets are available in one size and have a dial-fit adjustment system in the back and the adjustable chin strap, which provides an exact fitting of the helmet, for maximum comfort and secure fit for your toddler.
How do you know when a child is ready to learn to ride a bike?
FROM REI: "There’s no right or perfect age to learn to ride a bike. The timing will depend on the child’s physical and mental development, comfort level and coordination… The biggest factor, however, will be whether they want to learn to ride a bike. If you think they “should” learn to ride but they don’t express any interest, you may want to wait until they are ready."
How do you recommend grownups work with their kids to learn to ride a bike?
First of all, don’t rush, let the kid approach the bike little by little. Assure that the handlebar and seat are perfectly fitted for the height of your kid. Make sure the feet touch the ground comfortably. We recommend bringing your kid to an open space to practice riding with not too many distractions and obstacles.
Why is it important to have fun when learning how to ride a bike?
At Banwood, our ethos is: “Having fun is the aim of the game!”
