You want your child to learn how to ride a bike? Then you should consider buying what’s known as a balance bike (or sometimes a running bike), such as the Kazam, Skuut, or Strider. These bicycles don’t have peddles, a chain, or training wheels, and they’re great for teaching toddlers, or older kids, the sort of coordination necessary to ride a bicycle.
