What are the benefits of SureStop braking?
SureStop provides kids a faster more controlled stop with a single lever and also prevents all kinds of rider errors like grabbing the wrong brake lever causing head-over-handlebars accidents.
Balance Bikes
vs
Training Wheels
What is the balance bike method?
The balance bike method is an easier way to teach a child to ride a bike by removing their pedals, lowering their seat, and teaching them how to balance first.
Can all Guardian Bikes be used as balance bikes?
All Guardian Bikes can be ridden as a balance bike by removing the pedals due to its ergonomic and kid-friendly design.
Can you use training wheels on a Guardian Bike?
We recommend using the balance bike method but understand all children learn differently. Compatible training wheels can be purchased here for our 14", 16", 20", 24",and 26" Bikes.
