Balance Bikes

A balance bike is a great gift for children ages 1 to about 3! At Bandits and Angels it is possible to personalize a balance bike.

Balance bikes in all shapes and sizes for every child

A balance bike is a fantastic tool that helps children develop their balance and motor skills. Unlike a regular bicycle, a balance bike has no pedals. Children push themselves forward using their feet, offering a playful and effective way to learn. This simple movement boosts their confidence and prepares them perfectly for the transition to a pedal bike.

Why choose a balance bike

A balance bike is the ideal first step in your child’s cycling journey. By learning to balance, children get used to the feeling of riding on two wheels. This makes the transition to a real bicycle much easier later on. At Bandits and Angels, we offer a wide range of balance bikes to suit every age, style, and preference. Whether you're looking for a tough, colorful, or classic model – you’ll always find the perfect balance bike in our collection.

Which balance bike is right for my child?

Size is essential when choosing a balance bike. Our smallest models, like the Little Starter, are suitable from age 1. Larger ones, such as the Retro Rider, are great from 2.5 years. Since every child is different, we recommend measuring their inseam. Measure from the crotch to the floor – this determines the ideal seat height. Choose a model where the seat can be adjusted within this range for optimal comfort and safety.

Balance bikes with solid wheels or air tires

Tires play an important role when selecting a balance bike. For younger children, solid wheels offer great stability and low maintenance: they can’t go flat and are highly durable. Older children, who have better balance, benefit from air tires. These provide more comfort and cushioning while riding – perfect for longer adventures!

Wooden or metal balance bikes

A wooden balance bike has a warm, natural look and is environmentally friendly. Our wooden models are robust and stylish. Metal balance bikes, on the other hand, are lighter and often come with adjustable seats and handlebars. Both materials are high quality and safe to use – the choice mostly depends on your taste and your child’s preferences.

From simple balance bikes to eye-catching scooters

Our balance bikes come in a variety of styles – from the simple and practical Starter to the eye-catching Little Rider and Italian Rider. Choose from mini cargo bikes, scooters, or classic balance bikes, each with their own unique look. What do they all have in common? They’re safe, durable, and beautifully designed.

Balance bikes in your child’s favorite color

A balance bike doesn’t have to be blue for boys or pink for girls. We offer a wide range of colors including mint, red, green, white, black, and grey. Whether you’re after a neutral look or something more vibrant, you’re guaranteed to find a balance bike that suits your style!

Safety comes first with every balance bike

A balance bike should be safe for both children and parents. That’s why our models are stable, made from sturdy materials, and CE-certified. Many of our balance bikes include a steering limiter and safety grips, especially the versions for toddlers. Always check for the correct size – both feet should be able to touch the ground firmly for a safe and secure ride.

Personalize your balance bike with a chin protector or sticker

Add a personal touch to your child’s balance bike. Choose from a chin protector with name, a custom name sticker, or – for wooden models – a name engraving on the frame. This makes the bike unique to your child and easy to recognize at school or on the playground. All personalization options are clearly listed per model.
