Belle allure, le bois est de très belle qualité comme les finitions. Le montage facile et costaud. La petite selle en cuir à fait craquer tous les adultes. C est un très bel objet solide pratique.

Notre petit fils adore

Yes just bought for a present for my grandson so will give for Xmas

But so far looks good

We have had our bike for 8 years and our children have zoomed about with glee. It remains the best gift of their childhood. Our youngest is turning 2 next week and we pulled it out to see if there was any life still in it. The body is as solid as ever but the saddle has split. And that is with some hardy older children having one last go or sitting on it over the years as it was comfortable even when they were really too big.

Is it possible to replace the saddle? We are based in Ireland but didn't see anywhere that would.

If not the youngest will have to get one all to himself! Would be cool if we could just update the saddle - we are sentimental about it!

Not opened the box yet. However bought one for my first grandson about ten years ago and he loved it. So it couldn't be anything less for the second. Not allowed to give it to him till his birthday in May.

I bought this bike for my eldest son's 3rd birthday. I went to the Henley shop and had a good chat with the owner of the business who gave some great advice. My son loves the bike, and looks super cool as well. Early on it took a little time for his confidence to grow, but now he tears about the place with great confidence. Transitioning from this bike to pedals will be easy I think. However he's having so much fun I'm in no rush to do that! When I do I'll be heading back to the EarlyRider Henley shop for advice!

Classic style: Great craftsmanship and design. My son Ryder started riding at 18 months, I used the restricted steering for the first month. Then unrestricted ever since. He mastered the bike in less then 2 months. I need to run to stay along side him on the rides, he loves the bike. He is 2 1/2 now and can balance himself on two wheels for short periods. It's an excellent learning tool for balance and bike handling skills. He Asks to ride everyday. It also has a great look, everyone comments and says "that's a cool looking bike". I'm looking to purchase the trail runner next.

Honestly I love these bikes. My son has had many happy hours on his. The design and finish are beautiful. The bike is tough and lasts well, ageing nicely as wood does!

I could nt fault it.... Worth every penny

Strong, reliable, easy to mend if wheel punctured, light weight, wonderful looking bike, my son loves it from age 2 now nearly 4 and about to progress to pedals. Next step prob Isla bike

We bought 2 classic ones about 2 years ago (early 2012) for our twin boys. They started to use them in spring 2 years ago and the learning curve was excellent. It did not take really long till they knew how to keep the balance on their bikes and going really fast with them.

This summer they really did it even better by speeding up real fast, throwing both feet on the fork and cruising a lot of meters this style.

a lot of other parents who saw us all stopped and watched them riding such cool handmade balance bikes - and told this to us. So they and we had really a lot of fun with these bikes :-)

but now it is time to switch to the next level: we decided to buy 2 belters (16") for x-mas so all the next summers will be a great adventure too...

My son received the classic from his uncle as a gift when he was 1.5 years old. We had to wait till his legs grew for him to be able to balance at first, didn't take long and before long he was off. When we go for a walk the bike has to come, in fact it's more of a jog for me, he cruises quite fast, even clocked 20km down a hill over a speed bump with a big smile on his face! It's such a sturdy bike and wear and tear is like no other! We get comments on the bike all the time, everyone loves the big fat tyres. We can't go anywhere without the bike.... Even comes with sound effects! Brrrrmmm

If only these bikes come in adult sizes, I could cruise around at the beach! Brrrrrm brrrrrm
