Seen these balance bikes priced at £12 in Sainsburys Castle Vale.
Cheaper than when posted last week.

Bought one about a year ago for the little lads birthday. He's now three and a half and it's lasted well for the money. The one we have is red with black handles, however it's now starting to show signs of wear, but for £12-£14 (I think that's what I paid), then lasted well as it gets abuse!

Bought a balance bike for my boy when he was around 18 months old. I put no pressure on him to use it ever; indeed it took him a few months before he wanted to try it out, and that was just fine. I bought him a 2 wheeled bike when he was 3 with stabilisers, and a ridgeback big boys bike w/o stabilisers for Xmas when he was 4, and have never needed to teach him to ride a bike. He was just off and away, first time, both times he upgraded. I completely blame his time on the balance bike for developing his innate abilite to understand and accept 2-wheeled balance.
I would thoroughly recommend a balance bike to any parent.

Got our first son a chillafish bunzi when he was about 18 months, he loved it straight away and ment he could keep up when out walking.
Before he was 2 we got him a proper balance bike from decathlon, the b'twin run ride. He goes along at a pace ( jogging pace), pull's the brake to skid and holds his legs up to coast along. He is 2 1/2 at xmas time.
I find it makes taking him out alot easier because he can keep up and we dont have to use a push chair with him.
Also highly recommend a balance bike for your child.
