Children's tricycles with handle

Spring is spring, it will soon become completely dry and clean, which means that it's time to think about buying a child's bicycle with a parent operated handle for your child. In this article, we deal with which tricycles are better and how to choose them correctly.

Bike for toddlers with a handle

What does such a wonder machine consist of and what should you pay attention to when buying it?

  1. Let's start with the handle. Unfortunately - this is the weakest part of such a bicycle. Many parents face its breakdown at the end of the first driving season. When buying, pay attention to the possibility of replacing the handle, in case of breakage, as well as its length. A little advice. To handle lasted longer, when you overcome various obstacles (curbs, etc.), try to transport the bike by lifting it behind the wheel. So you remove the excess load from the fragile handle. Another point to look out for is the width of the handle: for one or two hands. It is not always convenient to manage a young rider with one hand.
  2. It would be very uncomfortable to walk for mom if the bicycle handle is short for her. Therefore, be sure to try to ride the chosen bicycle, before you buy it. If you have to go bending your back, then it's not yours.
  3. Seat. It can be divided into two main types - a high chair with a backrest, or an ordinary bicycle sidushka. Both are soft or hard. It all depends on the child, but it is best to give preference to an even seat.
  4. On some models there are also seat belts. What kind of seat to prefer - to choose parents.
  5. Many tricycles for children from the year have a removable footrest, which can be removed if the child reaches the pedals and feels comfortable without it. If you think that you will be using this stand for a while, then give preference to the wide. So it is less likely that the baby's leg will slip and accidentally get injured.
  6. Pedals should spin easily. If they are tight, it is unlikely that they will be able to teach the child to twist them. It is good, when it is possible to lock the pedals in one position, so that they do not rotate when necessary. When choosing a bicycle, make sure that the child can easily reach the pedals, and it was convenient for them to twist.
  7. The wheels of the tricycle should be rubber coated so that the ride is softer. Many argue that it is safer to purchase a bicycle with plastic wheels, forgetting that they will quickly erase. But tricycles with inflatable wheels for young children should not be bought. The speed of such bicycles will be higher, and the kid can not cope with the control.
  8. Also present on many models and protective bumpers. Can be either removable or simply lifting.
  9. Awning from the baking sun and rain. Although, to be honest, these are just attributes that are very impractical and inconvenient. From the rain will not be saved, and only the head will be covered from the sun, but the mother can also cover the whole view.
  10. Baskets. Here already on the fan. If you need a lot of things, you should not count on such a basket. But for napkins and a pair of toys - just right.
  11. The most interesting thing for the child and the parents' annoying gizmo, which is on many children's bicycles - is a musical game pad. It can glow, squeak, squeal, sing songs. If you decide to ride a bicycle with a music panel, then soberly assess your psychological state. Will you survive such a walk?

Tricycle for twins

Some parents prefer to buy two small tricycles, while others simply buy a children's bicycle for two places. Plus, of course, is that children will not be on the walk to tear my mother in different directions. But there is also a minus. If children already know how to twist the pedals, it will be hard for the seated child to carry their passenger. And the handle, which is the weak link of all children's bicycles, will also break more often. If you still decided on such an assembly, then choose one that has metal wheels with rubber coating - these will last longer.

In general, a bicycle is a cool thing that helps you learn to navigate in space and coordinate your movements, not to mention physical development, so do not deny the child such pleasure.
