The seat can be adjusted without any tools from approximately 34cm to 42cm which is a nice height range for most 3 year olds. Remember to get their inside leg measurement and ensure it's at least 2.5 - 3cm more than the lowest seat height. No tools are required for the saddle height adjustment. The Early Rider is a wooden balance bike which is more eco friendly than a lot of it's counterparts and looks awesome too. Some balance bikes for 3 to 5 year olds have 14 inch wheels so this size of wheel is something to consider as well. As stated at the beginning of the article the most important thing when buying a balance bike is to make sure that your child’s feet will be flat on the floor when they are riding their bike. This is essential as they will need to use their feet to push the bike along. If they can’t do this they will be unable to ride the balance bike. Therefore the seat height is very important when choosing a balance bike.To make sure the seat height on the bike is the right size, measure your child’s inseam. This is the length between the top of their crotch and the floor. The seat height can be adjusted from 31.5cm to 39cm so there is a decent amount of growing room on the bike which is aimed at 2 to 5 year olds.

This is the optimum size for most young children who ride a balance bike. They will ideally then be ready to transfer onto a 12 or 14 inch pedal bike. This bike will really grow with your child and you shouldn’t need to buy another balance bike apart from this one. Brakes or no brakes? The higher-spec balance bikes tend to have brakes, scaled down to child size, either on both wheels or just on the rear wheel. Budget bikes tend not to have them. Opinion is divided on what's best: balance bikes can be stopped perfectly well with feet but some argue that it's good to learn about braking before you venture on to a bike with pedals – and better for your shoe leather. We'd say that, roughly speaking, a child probably doesn't have the hand/eye coordination for using brakes until about 2.5 to 3.5 years.
