The Ride Harness is designed to support kids during their first few rides without training wheels or while transitioning from a balance bike to a pedal bike. It lets you stay close and ready to catch your child if they tip, without straining your back. Instead of constantly holding or pushing, you give your child the freedom to learn balance on their own—and step in only when they're about to fall. Balance can't be taught—it has to be discovered through experience. With the First Ride Harness, your child can build confidence and skill while you help them avoid the scrapes and tears.
