Balance Bikes
Teach your child how to balance with a balance bike from Halfords. Also known as toddler bikes, these bikes are specially designed to teach your little one the art of balancing before they learn to pedal and brake. Our Kids Bike Buying Guide will give you more information on design, size, price and features. Ideal for children first finding their feet, balance bikes are the most effective way to prepare your child for cycling without stabilisers when they’re older. Shop our exciting range below or check out the Kids Bike Hub for all the different themes ranging from Trunki to Disney.

About Halfords Balance Bikes
Halfords balance bikes are available in a choice of materials, with a steel frame balance bike being the most popular option. The best balance bike for your child is one they feel most comfortable on, but having a lightweight frame that your child can manoeuvre with ease is important, especially as your child progresses to running and gliding with their feet off the ground.
We have a great range of the best balance bikes from many of the top brands. Our range features the latest styles and designs from the likes of Apollo, Disney, Carrera, Kiddimoto, My Buddy Wheels and more. We also stock the exclusive range of Wiggins kid's balance bikes, ideal for any young ambitious cyclist. The Wiggins balance bike range is ultra-lightweight and easy to control - thanks to the excellent Tektro V-brakes. So not only will your child learn on a great first bike - but they'll also look the part too!
