Here's how to put together your balance bike in 17 seconds! Psych! It will take you more than 17 seconds, but it will certainly take you no longer than 10 minutes, including Toddler distractions and breaks! 

A balance bike is a simplified version of a full-sized bike that helps kids learn the fundamentals of riding without training wheels! Balance bikes have become increasingly popular among parents and little riders because they are fun, safe and teach the fundamentals of riding bikes.

Bixbi Bikes was founded by two dads with a passion for bikes. It started in Canada six years ago when their kids were of the age to start riding. They went looking for a small bike for their kids to learn on, but didn’t like the options available. So, they decided to make their own! 

The World Health Organization wrote an extremely thoughtful document called "Why Are Helmets Needed?" where they cover 3 main aspects:

1. Head injuries are the leading causes of death and disability globally

2. Helmets protect your head

3. Helmet use is effective in reducing head injuries

We linked above to the piece, but if you did nothing else, but read the 3 bulletpoints, we can conclude that helmets (worn properly) work as advertised.

We understand that not every rider is going to have the exact same needs - riders living in sunny southern California are going to be a smidge different from their PNW brethren further north cycling in intermittent rain. However, there are a number of items that are going to make the short list for the things you need to get out there! Read below to see what is best to carry on your next ride.
