I know there have been a couple of other reviews on these but I just want to find out what brand people think are the best as I am looking at getting one for our son. I have looked at:
- Early RIder
- Mocka
- Kobba
- Babbastuff (on trademe)
I do want a wooden one, what do people think are better and if there are other brands people prefer. I know they range in price so just looking for what people think.
Cheers
We have a mocka one that my son absolutely loves - it seems to be good quality and is surviving lots of bumps and crashes. It was one of the cheaper ones I could find at the time I was looking to buy one. Would definitely recommend it
We have a Runna Balance Bike and it's very cool - granted DS is too young to use it yet but we bought it at the Parent & Child Show last year from The Wooden Toy Store. It retails for around $99 I think and they were doing it for $49 at the show.. we couldn't resist!
Might be worth a look at the show if you are going!
we got mocka's.
what i didn't consider was the lack of brakes.
ours have been crashed numerous times with bits flying off all over the place from getting up too much speed down hills.
somewhat dangerous.
We have a Mini Glider which is a metal alloy one. It has brakes which are great once they get moving a bit esp. on hills. It also has loads of seat height adjustment and the handlebars adjust too (not poss on the wooden ones). It is really light so they can pick it up and manouevre it easily and has a really nifty feature which is the foot rests which are really useful when they get confident and just want to glide along as they can put their feet up.
