Is a tricycle the right bike for your child?
When you buy your child's first bike, you basically have three choices. You can choose to buy a:
Tricycles are quite simply bicycles that have three wheels. They are often quite low to the ground and thus very stable.
A tricycle is generally suitable for children from about one and a half years to two years, up to about five or six years of age. From there, you can choose to let your child use a balance bike or a children's bike with stabiliser wheels.
You'll also find a hybrid between a balance bike and a tricycle in Biltema's range. By putting on the detachable pedals, the bicycle is transformed into a pedal bike. This model is suitable for children between two and four years of age.
Things to think about when buying a tricycle
When buying a tricycle for your child, make sure that the bike meets the following requirements:
- adjustable saddle
- adjustable handlebars is a plus
- low weight (our models weigh between 3.3 kg and 4 kg)
- colour
Our pedal bikes are available in several different colours. The easiest thing to do is to take the child to one of our stores to see the various tricycles for themselves. Once you have chosen the model and colour, you can then complete your purchase!
