juggie Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Fisher Price also do a great strong bike. But 1x9 looks great
Ratty Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 I also got a y-bike for my son.Pitty he is 1 year old and cannot ride it yet. We just got a Winnie the pooh ride on for my kids 1st birthday and he cried when we put him on it :-( Not a good start.... Can wait to get the Y-Bike though as its KTM colours. Means he can match his dad.
Ratty Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Go check out this' date=' Just got one for my son... http://www.specializedsa.co.za/contentbike.php?range=238&bike=141[/quote'] I love these , they are adorable. My only worry is value for money. They aren't cheap and its a question of how long will they be able to ride them?
RennradSA Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 We currently sell Rennrad Balance bikes in New Zealand and Australia, and are looking at selling them in SA, you could possibly look at the NZ website for now - and we are making a trip to SA in Nov - Des, so we will bring some along for now to see what the interest is. These are 14" and they convert into a pedal bike once the child is ready.The inside leg measurement of the child should be 38cm to reach the ground. They retail here for NZ$385, I will do some costings and see what we can do for SA. Check out our website and let us know if you are interested.www.rennrad.co.nzwww.rennrad.com.au < id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall;" id="jsProxy" ="">
RennradSA Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 What did you pay for the specialized 12" balance bike?< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall;" id="jsProxy" ="">
rad006 Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 I researched extensively and ended up bying a 12" dunlop bike from makro for around R500. It has steel wheels with proper tyres unlike these cheaper bikes with plastic wheels and foam tyres.I went this route and it worked, My nephew loves his bike as yes he is 2. It comes with training wheels as well

mudda Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 JD bug by far the best I have bought. I got one for my 4 year old. I wish I got it when she was 2 They learn to balance really quickly!
Christopher Brunsdon Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Like the Rennrad ... pitty I only just saw it as my mom has just arrived from Australia this week. Will put it on my wish list with her for next year then
