Welcome to Runners-Bike
red bike on treeRunners-Bike – Your Canadian Balance Bike Company
Runners-Bike provides wooden, steel, and aluminum frame balance bikes. Our balance bike story starts when our boys, Linus and Finni, were little and got one of the more expensive balance bikes from their dear grandpa from Germany in 2005. To be honest with you these pretty expensive balance bikes are made of good quality, but we found then that a balance bike made of good quality shouldn’t be so pricey! We wanted to make economic balance bikes in Canada with high quality. That’s why we created our first Runners-Bikes: Secure, good-quality balance bikes for toddlers with an awesome design. Smart features are the cool bell and the easy-to-clean saddle.
Now a couple of years later, our boys did outgrow their Runners-Bike. In the meantime, we did add quite a few new different models to meet our customer’s wishes.
Learn about your first wheeler
red bike on tree1. How old does a child have to be to ride a Runners-Bike? The sweet little racer is designed for children ages 1-1/2 to 5.
2. Is there assembly required? Runners-Bike comes partially assembled, you will only need to attach the wheels and handlebars, which should not take more than 10 minutes. Instructions and tools are provided.
3. Is the seat adjustable? The seat is easily adjustable so children of all sizes can ride Runners-Bike.
4. How much does Runners-Bike weigh? The smalles bike weighs about 1.8 KG, and is well distributed, so it is easy to carry when your toddler tires out.

5. How high up is the seat? Depending on the model the adjustable seat ranges with our bigger bikes from just over 12 inches to 17 inches high, fitting most 1.5-5 year olds. (12″/31CM – 17″/43CM.) Our smallest models, MINI and JUNIOR, start with a seat hight of 9″/23CM for age group 12 months and up.

6. What are the tires made of? The tires are indestructible EVA or inflatable high quality pneumatic wheels. Both work very good on all terrains since the little pilots propel the bike using their feet. “Real” bikes are propelled via pedals, chain and tires.

Great out and indoor fun!

How to use your Runners-Bike? It is amazingly easy. Using balance bikes toddlers first walk the bike forward. As they go faster they stride with feet off the ground for longer and longer periods of time – running their bikes. Ultimately they are able to pull both feet off the ground and coast. At first, they tilt to one side or the other and their feet catch them like training wheels or a tripod would. Very quickly balancing the bike becomes second nature and they can coast for yards with their feet off the ground. Braking is done in a very natural style: just put your feet down and stop.

How long does it take to learn? Our children were able to walk or run bikes the first time they sat down. They were able to coast with their feet up after a week or two. Learning curves are different for different children.

How to choose your Runners-Bike?

Your balance bike story could start with our smallest balance bike/walker “Mini” which is from 10-36 months or with our wooden Junior Runners-Bike. This bike will teach your little one age 16 months to balance until they outgrow it with 3 years.

Our PushMee Runners-Bike will be also perfect from age 1.5 years up until 4-5 years depending on the height of your little one.

Our wooden Classic Wooden Runners-Bike, our Princess Runners-Bike, and our aluminum UltraLight Runners-Bikes are perfect to teach your kids from age 3-5 years.
