So we had to buy an expensive specialty bike (specialized brand) in order for his feet to touch the ground. It is the same size as his strider balance bike just with pedals. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-2159089 Tue, 28 Apr 2015 04:17:46 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2159089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@brownie: What kind did you get? More importantly, how big is it? I'm wondering if 12" wheels are too small. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-2159030 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 21:26:57 +0000 brownie 2159030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got our son a real bike with no training wheels for Christmas. He is quite the fantastic little rider. He just turned 4 this month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-2158908 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 18:50:23 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2158908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Curious to know which bike you ended up getting :happy: DH is itching to buy LO a real bike with training wheels, so I'm looking into it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-1901029 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 17:46:21 +0000 mauxie 1901029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarac: That is the cutest thing!!</p> <p>No real bikes for my littles yet.

I'm going to buy her a 16 inch pedal bike for christmas, because she's eager to be a Real Biker like the rest of her family. It's kind of the cutest thing ever. </p> <p>Here is a picture of her doing kiddie cyclocross this weekend, because I am obscenely proud of her: </p> [attach=2786/14/ndghnf.600x600.10665208_10101660851157876_2807294319718365944_n.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-1900960 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 16:07:19 +0000 Boogs 1900960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO has gotten really good at his balance bike, so for Christmas we want to get him a real pedal bike. Just not sure what we are going to get yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-1900567 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 12:25:01 +0000 lamariniere 1900567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a real bike (with training wheels) when my son turned 3. It's just some no name cheap brand I found on the internet. Kid's bikes are super expensive here if you get something remotely nice or a brand you've heard of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-1900455 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 11:38:40 +0000 mamimami 1900455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going to do the same move as you, but for my son's 4th birthday. He is into biking but he's over his balance bike, and the 2 y.o. is itching to get on it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-purchased-your-los-first-real-bike-yet#post-1900450 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 11:35:24 +0000 mrsjyw 1900450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my dad bought DS a real "trike" it's a huffy?
