YBIKE Extreme Balance Bike (Pink)

YBIKE Extreme Balance Bike (Pink)

Start 'em learning to ride at an early age with the pink YBike Extreme balance bike. A more versatile, slightly larger version of the original YBike, the YBike Extreme is designed and engineered to help your child build the skills, balance, and coordination necessary to ride a big-kid bicycle. The YBike Extreme is outfitted with an all-aluminum, corrosion-resistant frame, with a injection-molded structure that eliminates weak points and offers more design freedom, hence the sleek curves and smooth, superior finish. At the same time, the bike's safety-oriented design will help your kid learn the basics of riding without risking injury. The front wheel is considerably farther forward than on most children's bikes, creating a bigger turning circle. This makes it less likely that kids will fall over the front when turning. The YBike Extreme's high-clearance body and large wheels, meanwhile, let kids ride safely on almost any terrain, including pavement, grass, or even sand.

Kids who tested the YBike Extreme for 20 to 30 minutes twice a week showed substantial improvements in both static and dynamic balance and bilateral coordination. Children as young as 1.5 years also showed observable improvements in physical self-confidence. So sit back, relax, and watch your little ones develop their bike-riding skills with the YBike Extreme. The product--which supports 220 pounds on a smooth, flat surface and 120 pounds on a rough surface--measures 33 by 17 by 9.5 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 7 pounds.
