We should! In the meantime, here's some great tips from our friends at KidsRideShotgun: kidsrideshotgun.com/blogs/news/how-to-carry-a-balance-bike-on-a-backpack
Excellent :-)
Thank you! Hope it helps!
Do you have a preference between the woom 1 and the pello ripple for a 18 month old with the plans to keep it until a peddle bike?
The woom 1 is smaller and lighter than the Pello, so depending on the size of your 18 month old, may be a more suitable fit. The Pello, however, has a much higher maximum seat height, so it will grow with your child longer. The woom is just great if your child transitions to a pedal bike early (like 3 years old). That said, both of those bikes are currently out of stock due to manufacturing delays caused by COVID.
@@Twowheelingtotsbikes Ok sounds good. I'll keep this in mind when all this COVID stuff stops and stock gets back to normal. Thanks again! Stay safe :)
When did you guys start with the balance bike?
The best time to start is between 18 months and 2 years old. But if your child is older than that, it’s never too late!
@Twowheelingtotsbikes thx, baby daughter is still to be born, however mtb parents are already trying to figure out how to make her life difficult :))
Lololol we are so excited for you! Riding with your kids is literally the best thing in the world!
