Overview
A wooden 2-in-1 tricycle and balance bike from Small Foot, convertible between the two modes, with a seat that adjusts to three heights and handlebars that adjust in distance from the seat. It is rated for children from 12 months and includes a front basket.
The trike is designed to grow with a child through two stages, starting as a pedal tricycle and converting to a pedal-free balance bike, rather than being replaced as the child grows. Small Foot builds it from wood sourced through sustainable forestry rather than plastic, part of the brand's stated approach across its toy line.
- 2-in-1 tricycle and balance bike conversion
- Seat adjusts to three height positions
- Turning radius limiter on the handlebars
- Rated for ages 12 months and up
Who it's for
Parents looking for a wooden riding toy that transitions from tricycle to balance bike as a toddler grows are the fit, especially those wanting a non-plastic option. Families who want a single-mode pedal trike without the conversion step, or a bike sized for older kids past the balance-bike stage, should look at a different model.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Converts between tricycle and balance bike modes
- Seat height and handlebar distance both adjust
- Solid EVA rubber tires need no inflation
- Wood sourced through sustainable forestry
- No pedal-assist gearing, this is an entry-level riding toy, not a geared bike
- Sized for toddlers, not intended for use past the early balance-bike stage
Performance notes
The seat adjusts across three height positions and the handlebar distance from the seat can also be changed, letting the trike fit a child as they grow rather than needing replacement. A turning radius limiter on the handlebars is built in for safety, and the wheels use solid EVA rubber rather than air-filled tires, so there is nothing to inflate or puncture.
