SWAGTRON K3 Balance Bike with Air-Filled Rubber Tires

Learning how to ride a bike is one of the first adventures we embark on as kids. And with the K3 Balance Bike from SWAGTRON, learning to ride is easy as walking. Crafted from sturdy aluminum alloy frame, the K3 weighs a light 7 pounds, yet is able to support kids up to 55 pounds. It’s perfect for kids ages 2 to 5, helping them improve their balance, coordination and stamina. All without the hassle of frustrating or wobbly training wheels.

Every child remembers when they first learned how to ride a bike. Make those memories count.

Streamlined Kid-Friendly Design

Everything about the K3 is designed with your child’s empowerment in mind. From the kid-friendly weight and seat position, to the angle of the front fork and the length of the wheelbase. The K3 is easy for toddlers to master riding and maneuvering.

• Ideally, the weight of the balance bike shouldn’t be more than 30% of your child’s weight. At an extremely light 7 pounds, the K3 will be easy for a child weighing as little as 25 pounds to ride, maneuver and master.
• The front fork angle of the K3 ensures that your child’s weight isn’t directly over the front wheel. The result? Turning will be easier for younger riders.
• The K3’s “cockpit” — the space between the seat and the handlebars — provides ample room for todders to lean forward properly while riding, which is needed for smooth rides and better turns.
• The air-filled tires grip the pavement better, delivering a much smoother, more realistic riding feel. The rubber material flexes and provides “give” when ridden, so the child rider feels much less impact.

Balance Bike vs Training Wheels

Training wheels might be how a lot of us remember learning to ride a bike. But with training wheels, young riders devote too much energy on pedaling and not enough on improving their balance. When the training wheels come off, they’ll still have to contend with gravity and learn how to keep the bike upright.

A balance bike is a better teaching solution for new riders. It gives kids as young as 2 years old a head start on their journey to riding a bike, using the skills your child has already learned — standing and walking. And because pedaling can be challenging, a no-pedal K3 balance bike allows for a more seamless future transition to a pedal bike.
