My then 5 year old, had learned to balance in a balance bike. My husband and I did extensive research and realized that for best success, cheap Walmart bikes were no good to learn, and then we found the Pello bikes. It has been worth the money.

What a cute little bike! Aesthetics aside, my older daughter learned to cycle on another excellent kids bike brand.

He loves the bike!! The only issue we've had is paint is wearing off in places that receive excessive contact, like head tube where cables rub and top tube where we have a bike lock wrapped. Already considering the ...
