Skuut Balance Bike

The Skuut balance bike is the ideal bike for your child to get used to riding on a two wheeled cycle. The principle behind this bike is very simple and the child gets the confidence and forms the balance in future to ride a bicycle without any balancing wheels. Most of the children who have spent time on the Skuut balance bike, will not need much training or extra balance wheels for riding the bicycle with pedals.

The concept behind the Skuut balance bike although simple is a very clever one and has been used all over Europe for many years. This bike does not have a chain or pedals. The child will push the bike forward with its foot to propel it forward. This action will start the child off on maintaining its balance for a short time and then again pushing it with its foot. The child in this way will start gaining confidence with balancing and will eventually start running with the bike, to propel it for a much longer distance. This becomes an automatic learning process with least adult intervention or supervision. The child on its own will start maintaining balance for longer periods of time and will be ready to handle a bicycle with pedals.

The Skuut Balance Bike is meant for kids between the age of 2 to 5, and will teach them coordination and balance much before they can handle a bicycle with training wheels. In fact once they have spent time with this bike they will not need the training wheels. The Skuut Balance Bike is a better way of learning cycling as balance wheels usually will retard the development of balancing.

The Skuut Balance Bike is built with safety foremost in mind. The bike is ergonomically designed so that it is very comfortable for the child, and the child does not strain or hurt itself in any way. The steering handle bars are made in such a way that the child will not be able to take a fast turn and this reduces the chances of the child tipping over. The wheels are built without spokes so that there is no chance of laces or clothing getting entangled in them and causing injury to the child.

As for the durability, the Skuut Balance Bike is the best in its class. The robust body is made from hardwood and softwood which is heat-treated and then is coated with a lacquer which is totally non-toxic. The wood gives a traditional and rich appearance to the bike and the child also feels he is riding an actual bike. The height of the saddle or seat can be adjusted to suit the height of your child as he is growing. The bike is made from the best materials and the company gives a guarantee for one year which in itself is a long time for a product which is used roughly by children.

With the Skuut Balance Bike your child will gain self-confidence and the skills for riding a bicycle with agility, and the learning process is completely safe.
