Glide Bikes; Easy to Ride...Fun to Glide! Kids learn to balance safely, without tears or training wheels. Balance Bikes; don’t have training wheels and pedals to get in the way of the learning process. Instead, children learn the important first step in riding a bike -- balance. Children Start by Walking the Bike, pushing with alternating feet, they lift one foot and then the other... until they are confidently gliding and balancing. Designed with downhill mountain bike geometry, Glide Bikes give riders a lower center of gravity and the ability to balance at 1.5 MPH for safer balancing. Children with special needs, who require more practice in balance and control, benefit from the lower center of gravity and increased stability. Gliding is Long-Lasting Fun; Children will continue to ride their gliders long after they've learned to ride a pedal bike. Fun Foot pegs make gliding the new way to ride.

A balance bike, or glide bike is a training bike that helps kids learn to balance and steer a bike safely. Balance bikes do not have pedals, crank set, and chain or training wheels. Glide Bikes are built for small children and special needs kids who are ready to learn how to ride a bike. Glide bikes utilize Downhill mountain bike geometry to achieve a very low speed balance point of less than 2mph and are light weight 8lbs for the Mini Glider and 10 for the Go Glider.

Balance bikes are small enough so children can walk the bicycle while sitting comfortably with both feet on the ground. Children learn by walking the glide bike sitting on the seat. In time, children become comfortable enough to run and “glide” while riding the bicycle and are able to lift their feet off the ground and balance on two wheels. Kids as early as 24 months can learn to glide a balance bike with practice.

New addition to the GlideBikes is our Ezee Glider Bikes.
