Balance Bike for Kids with Special Needs

At LittleBig Bikes we want to enable all kids to learn to ride a bike. The benefits of exercise aside, learning to glide along independently develops motor skills, builds confidence and is a means for social interaction and group play. 

We understand that while each person has their own unique strengths, capabilities, and talents, for children with special needs, riding a bicycle does not always come easy. For kids with Down syndrome, autism or cerebral palsy, trying to coordinate balance, pedalling and steering can be an extremely difficult task.

What Other Parent's Say

“My first son has Autism and was 7 when he learned to get his balance on the LittleBig bike, and we had tried other bikes to no avail, my second son has Dyspraxia and learnt to cycle in 2 weeks using the bike, I lent it to a friend of mine with a boy with Autism and he also learnt to cycle using it and now its back to me and my youngest child is 4 tomorrow and we promised him we would put the pedals on it when he was 4, so its going to teach its fourth child how to cycle now, and its still in immaculate condition after 3 years. It’s an amazing bike!”

“I managed to purchase the bike and have it shipped to Belgium for my child with DCD (Dyspraxia).
It is absolutely brilliant, both in term of use as the design that works well and is feasible for me as a parent.”

“I was looking for a bike for my daughter who has Dyspraxia and was struggling with heavy bikes and with pedals. She is in love with it… she loves the colour of it and is able to handle it really well. Colour, size, weight, quality – all first class!”

LittleBig's Growing Frame Gives Extra Time to Learn

The LittleBig’s unique design allows it to be used as a balance bike for 4-5 years, the pedal kit never needs to be attached. If your child has slower growth they may be able to use it for even longer. The stable design of the LittleBig and being fully supported by the saddle while they have their feet on the ground, makes it even easier than walking, ideal for kids with low muscle tone. The LitleBig's light weight and high quality 14 inch wheels with sealed bearings mean it is much easier to push forwards and steer than traditional kids bikes with stabiliser wheels.

Top Tip!

No need for stabilisers (aka training wheels), LittleBig's unique adaptable frame offers kids with special needs a smoother and safer transition to pedalling. Read our in depth guide on Balance Bikes vs Training Wheels (Which is Best)
