Runbikes are a relatively new type of equipment for training in early childhood. They can provide excellent support to the developing body and become excellent equipment for full physical development. However, before choosing a specific model, it is useful to study the reviews on Small Rider runbikes.

Customer ratings

These devices are highly appreciated by the audience. They are praised as suitable devices for children of primary preschool age. Even the most active kids will be completely satisfied. The positive properties of such equipment are considered its ease and convenience. The constructions are quite simple and perform well even when they are taken “for growth”.

As practice shows with Small Rider products, they are not at all more dangerous than ordinary bicycles with safety wheels and parental handles. If the manufacturer claims that some product is designed for the youngest children, then this promise is guaranteed to materialize. A number of models are designed for hanging on a stroller. The seats only seem stiff - in fact, no injuries or even bruises should be feared.

Other positive features include:

  • thoughtful and balanced design;
  • excellent assembly;
  • strength and stability even with heavy use.

Of the minuses, users note that a number of models of aluminum and plastic runbikes cannot be assembled without the use of specialized tools.

Models

Consider the most popular Small Rider brand models.

    Roadster 2 air plus

    Promising top-end modification. In the second generation, engineers were able to finally cope with the "childhood diseases" of the first generation and create great devices. For children from 2 to 5 years, they are ideal.The developers even provided for a special version that does not have brakes. Such products are lighter than usual and can be useful even for children who are not able, for physical reasons, to apply the brakes themselves.

    Among the attractive features include:

    • ease and big width of wheels;
    • frame of carefully selected aluminum alloy;
    • lightweight reversal mechanism;
    • branded, carefully crafted handles;
    • wheel illumination with LEDs;
    • the presence of steps and miniature mudguards;
    • bright and rich colors.

    There is even a speaker and the ability to simulate a "roar of the motor." It is very easy to scroll the handle that starts the acoustic imitation of a motorcycle.

      Neon

      As an alternative, you can consider the Neon model. As in the previous version, very bright colors were used here. The sports-type seat reaches a large size. Importantly, it will be possible to adjust its height even without a key. The steering wheel is also sports-type, which makes the runbike more convenient than competitors' products. The distance from the ground to the lower edge of the seat is 0.34-0.44 m. The steering wheel is raised to a height of 0.65 m. The total weight of the structure is 4 kg.

        Eva

        It is useful to take a closer look at the Eva model. This is also a lightweight aluminum runner, but designed for children from 3 to 6 years old. Given the increased childish activity at this age, it is not surprising that the manufacturer gives a guarantee of only 6 months. At the same time, the device is not inferior in functionality to other versions. The manufacturer declares that It is distinguished by maneuverability and increased reliability of the wheels.

        Both the seat and the steering wheel can be adjusted to the required parameters without a key. The seat is especially soft and offers incredible comfort. The dimensions of the runbike are 0.83x0.42x0.58 m.

          Jimmy

          If you need to buy a runbike, the attention naturally attracts Jimmy. This three-wheeled device is very lightweight and is suitable for children from 1 to 3 years old.

          Designers knowingly rely on the concept of the “wheelchair” - it allows you to take into account the needs and maximize the safety of the kids, “growing up” with them. The wheelchair mode does not allow balancing, but it gives an excellent opportunity to work out technical skills - such a leg training allows you to learn to walk more fully. The distance between the rear wheels is 0.16 m, and the mass of the structure is 2.5 kg.

          Foot racer air

          The runbike (especially the second generation of this model) looks very beautiful and elegant. Thanks to the aluminum frame, maximum lightness can be ensured. Coloring in metallic color has improved the appearance.

            Of course, the engineers took care of the ability to adjust the steering wheel and seat without special tools. The size of the inflatable wheels is 12 inches.

            Tornado

            It is worth taking a look at the Tornado model. She fully justifies her name, allowing children to rush along a hard surface like little tornadoes. An important feature of the model (corresponding to the spirit of the brand as a whole) will be bright and juicy colored wheels.

              Designers on the design of the device were inspired by a sporty style. Wheels are made of reliable polyvinyl chloride, rubber handles are as ergonomic as possible.

              Prestige pro

              Among the children's Chinese runbikes, the Pro model stands out. Rather - Prestige Pro. The manufacturer declares that This version is characterized not only by excellent quality, but also by an unusually elegant appearance. Both the steering wheel and the wheels spin very easily and freely. Geometrically, the product is well balanced.

              The atypical “square” geometry of the frame made it possible to increase the aesthetic qualities of the runbike. Along the way, another problem was solved: it became much easier to transfer vehicles behind the frame. The width of the twelve-inch wheels is very large, and their structure is designed for maximum comfort. It is not difficult to drive both on asphalt and on the lawn. Maneuvering during acceleration does not cause problems.

              Drive 2 air

              And another version from the eminent concern - Drive 2 Air - is also deservedly included in the lists of the best models on the market. An important achievement is the combination of beauty and functionality. To facilitate steering turns helped the use of a special mechanism that uses bearings. Even with a long ride, the ergonomic steering wheel will not cause children any particular inconvenience.

              It is noted that the wheels made of PVC ride very quietly, and inflatable rubber tires do not differ in appearance from the wheels of a full-fledged bicycle.

              Selection recommendations

              Despite the appeal of the various Small Rider models, it is clear that only one version is to be chosen.

              • Crucial is the so-called step size. The foot from the top to the foot is measured using a tailor's tape. From its height it is necessary to subtract 0.02-0.03 m - this will be the rational height of the seat above the ground in the lowest position. If it is larger, the children will not be able to reach and push off or maintain balance.
              • Equally important is the mass of the structure.. It is selected in such a way that the guys manage to independently raise the runbike and rearrange it to a new place. At the same time, a sufficiently light product does not provoke serious injuries when falling on a rider.
              • Airless tires suitable only for trips in parks and other areas with good hard surface. If you have to ride not only there, it is better to choose a model with inflatable wheels.
