The front tire of this bike blew after my daughter was on it for about 20 seconds—on her third birthday! What a great way to ruin a birthday, Skuut. I’ve seen other reviews complaining about the tires, perhaps it’s time you listen to consumers and do something about the quality of your material. I know things happen, but seriously, couldn’t be more disappointed with this product. I was so excited for my daughter to ride, and now we’re sitting here figuring out how to return it. Won’t be recommending your company to any of my friends looking for a balance bike for their children! And can I say one more time–What a way to ruin a birthday!

the skuut bike is a great first bike. My daughter really likes it. We haven’t used it too much yet though.

We bought this for my 2 1/2 year old and put it together – was quite easy to assemble. But my son keeps looking for the pedals and is disappointed that there aren’t any so he keeps putting his feet all the way up and falling off balance. I would have rather purchased a normal bike with pedals and training wheels so he could feel like the other “big kids” around the neighborhood with their bikes. it may teach balance, but it doesnt teach to “ride a bike” with pedals the way normal bikes do.

You do know you can achieve the same thing with a regular 12″ bike right? Just leave off the pedals and the training wheels. When they’re ready, you put the pedals back on and they can ride a 2 wheeler. Worked for my 3 year old twins. AND we saved the extra expense of having to buy one of these […] balance bikes. […] you’ve got 2 bikes in one. I mean it’s your money, I’m just sayin…
