We're going to buy her a pedal bike this spring, no training wheels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-first-bike#post-2094930 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 14:31:52 +0000 caitlanc 2094930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L was gifted a Strider balance bike for his 2nd birthday/ Christmas but we haven't gotten it out yet.

My son has had one since 18 months and we just hunted down a pedal bike at Christmas 3.5 years old and he is a pro. No training wheels at all. Our friends with training wheels still have them on after a few years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-first-bike#post-2094190 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 09:33:55 +0000 autumnlove 2094190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: bike pro uncle! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-first-bike#post-2094156 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 09:17:04 +0000 rachiecakes 2094156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My brother gifted J a balance bike (Strider) for his 2nd birthday and for his 3rd birthday he got him a regular bike with training wheels. (My brother works in a bike shop, haha)</p> <p>J was really good with the balance bike last summer. We've had too much snow to try the new bike. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-first-bike#post-2093063 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 09:15:00 +0000 autumnlove 2093063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 3 and she has a tricycle but we want to get her a bike. Did you buy your LO a balance bike or a traditional bike with pedals? </p>
