Some people say that nothing is perfect. But if there was a perfect balance bike, the Mini Glider would be the most likely candidate. You’ll like its high quality. And you’ll also like how the manufacturer payed attention to details. The quick release, tool free seat adjustment is more than welcome. And unlike other training/balance bikes, the foot peg and brakes are standard features of the Mini Glider.

To keep from disorienting (and possibly injuring) our little ones, the Mini Glider has a steering limit. Also for safety purposes, this balance bike has a rear wheel brake only. The brake lever is on the right-hand side of the handlebars. Also, the height of the handlebars can be adjusted.

The Mini Glider weighs only 8 pounds (3.6 Kg), which makes it very easy for our kids to maneuver, and even lift the bike without the risk of injury. And at a certain age, even carrying it won’t be a problem. The light weight of the Mini Glider also means that you pay less for shipping. And after you receive the bike, it’s very easy to assemble. The tool is included in the box, so you don’t have to worry about having the right tool for the job.

Currently, the Mini Glider balance bike is available in three colors: blue, pink and red.

If you want your kid to ride a bike, the Mini Glider is the perfect bike. Forget about “training” wheels. These do more harm than good, since kids don’t learn to balance with them. Instead they become dependent on them. It’s like helping your children do their homework by doing their homework for them. The Mini Glider could teach them to balance in days.

For such a modest price, a lifetime warranty and several years of fun, this bike is a steal. I can’t recommend it enough!
