Aileen 
United StatesI was hopeful
I was really hopeful with all the reviews of success but that was not the case. She tried it the first day it arrived and hasn't been on it since. She reaches for the smaller, lighter balance bike instead. This is just a guess, she is so hard to read, and she doesn't give me much information to work with, but she seems uncomfortable with the handlebar placement. Can they raised to allow her to be sitting more upright rather than hunched? Her physical therapist isn't sure she can do it without training wheels but she really wants to try. Who knows she may come back to it in a while maybe she wasn't ready.

Hi Aileen, Guardian Bikes here. We're sorry to hear your little one struggles to gain confidence and comfort on her new bike. We feel you know your kiddo best and we do have options to add training wheels on our bikes! We also do have an option to raise the stem which we'd be happy to share. Please reach us at info@guardianbikes.com we can help share these options with you in hopes that your little one might feel more comfortable on her new bike! Thanks, Amber @ Guardian Bikes

Emlee United StatesBest. Decision. EVER!!!
Well, maybe not “ever” but certainly up near the top. Our 7 yo son was incredibly hesitant about riding a bike, for fear of falling. He’s had a little Schwinn for over a year now & rode it maybe a handful of times with the training wheels. And even then was only a few minutes at a time. He just did not enjoy it. A friend told us their kids’ Guardian bike did the trick so we pulled the trigger & got one. I put the pedals on right away & he tried riding it but got instantly frustrated because he couldn’t balance & ride it. Then, ding!, I remembered he needs to learn to balance first, so I removed the pedals. He scooted around like that for 4-5 days, maybe 10-15mins at a time. Then, on went the pedals and off he went!!! My heart nearly exploded with pride. :’) Our first family bike ride is something I hope none of us forget. Now he rides every day after school. I honestly think the surestop break system is incredibly key here because the breaking on the Schwinn (pushing pedals back in order to break), messed with his head. Also, the design looks waaay more comfortable for him. Perhaps if he had a Strider when he was little, he may have learned to ride quicker. But because of the design of the Guardian bike, and the break system, Guardian would most likely still be in our lives. It really is a game changer. Cannot recommend enough!!

Suzanne Q. United StatesBlessings to Guardian Bikes!
My eight year old grand daughter was struggling to learn how to ride a two wheeler. I went with the recommendation of the 20inch large. I was able to assemble the bike myself. My granddaughter got on the bike and was comfortable with the quick response of the brakes. She also liked how she could lift the bike herself. We adjusted the seat height easily so the balls of her feet touched. She started on her own and was able to balance so much better! She said the bike made all the difference! She has been riding now and more confident each time. Thank you!

ColleenUnited StatesShocked!
My 7 year old has been trying for over a year to learn to ride without trainig wheels on a traditional big box store bike. It was too heavy and the dimensions just didn't fit her body as far as weight distribution and learning to ride comfortably. I'm shocked by how she rode within 2 minutes after putting pedals on- after only 2 times of training without the wheels and using Guardian bike as balance bike- which is what they recommend. She's thrilled and the customer service is great.
