Product Description
WHY CHOOSE A TRYBIKE STEEL?
THE 2-in-1 CONCEPT
The Trybike Steel offers you two bikes in one. The perfect bike for each step in your child’s early life.
QUALITY
The Trybike has been designed and developed in The Netherlands by Co&Co after many years of experience with balance bikes. They have applied their experience and selected the best materials, created the most durable construction and added the nicest details as well as a quality finish.
SMALL TURNING RADIUS
One of the biggest misconceptions about balance bikes is that bikes should have a small steering angle and therefore have an enormous turning circle. For that reason, you often see children lift the front wheel in tight corners. We have minimised the turning circle. Particularly in the early stages this will be very convenient.
SMART CONTROL DISC
Another great feature of the Trybike Steel is its control disk for the back wheel. This way you can get an even lower or higher seat position or increase or shorten the wheel base. Just create the perfect Trybike setting for all levels and skills of your child.
UNIQUE FOOTREST TO LEARN EVEN BETTER BALANCING
The Trybike Steel has an unique footrest which takes balancing to the next level. When your child is able to balance by keeping feet from the ground for some time it is possible to make the next step to a pedal bike. The only thing they have to learn now is to pedal and brake. Don’t put on training wheels anymore. Most kids will master riding a pedal bike within 1-2 hours when they have been experienced Trybike riders.
GIVE YOUR TRYBIKE STEEL YOUR OWN LOOK
Each bike comes with sticker sheets with loads of designs to choose from to customise your Trybike steel to your personal taste. The stickers are made of durable vinyl with UV laminate making every sticker withstand rain, wind and sunlight.
BEST RIDER POSITION
There are currently several tricycle balance bikes on the market but none of them have the correct dimensions nor proportions. The small inexpensive balance bikes have 8" or 10" wheels which are so small that they will only last for 3-6 months before your child will outgrow them. Other large tricycle balance bikes have incorrect proportions so children will hit their heels against the long rear axle.
SIMPLE AND BASIC DESIGN
When designing the Trybike it was kept as simple as possible. The short front and rear axle are identical and basic without too many rings, tubes and other unnecessary parts. The long rear axle is also very basic but made of the strongest steel available. In short, simple and therefore durable and tough.
SUSTAINABLE
The Trybike is a clever and durable design. The production methods and the choice of materials used are smart and sustainable. Also, every single part is separately available so a Trybike can always be repaired if parts are lost or broken. This is what makes the Trybike truly sustainable.

WHY CHOOSE A TRYBIKE WOOD?The 4-IN-1 CONCEPT
The Trybike brings you four bikes in one. The perfect bike for each step in the early life of your child.
QUALITY
The Trybike has been designed and developed in The Netherlands by Co&Co after many years of experience with balance bikes. They have applied their experience and selected the best materials, created the most durable construction and added the nicest details as well as a quality finish.
SEAT AND HANDLEBAR ALWAYS IN IDEAL POSITION
Unlike most other balance bikes the Trybike has a seat that doesn’t only move up but also tilts backwards. So instead of growing towards the handlebar your child grows "away" from the handlebar, this way the riding position always remains perfect.
SMALL TURNING RADIUS
One of the greatest misconceptions about balance bikes is that such bikes should have a small steering angle and as a result have an enormous turning circle. For that reason, you often see children lift the front wheel in tight corners. We know that this is an urban myth so we have minimised the turning circle. Particularly in the early stages this is a very convenient aspect.
THE LOWEST AND HIGHEST SEAT AVAILABLE FOR A WOODEN BALANCE BIKE
Co&Co have developed both the lowest seat height (27 cm) as well as the highest seat height (50 cm) for a wooden balance bike.
BEST RIDER POSITION
There are various tricycle balance bikes in the market but none of them have the correct dimensions and proportions. The small inexpensive balance bikes that have 8" or 10" wheels are so small that they only will last for 3-6 months before your child will have outgrown it. Other large tricycle balance bikes have incorrect proportions so children will hit their heels against the long rear axle or where the seat moves only up instead of tilting backwards to remain in exact proportion to the handle bar like the Trybike, the Trybike has solved all these problems.
SIMPLE AND BASIC DESIGN
When designing the Trybike the bike was kept as simple as possible. The short front and rear axle are identical and basic, without too many rings, tubes and other unnecessary parts. The long rear axle is also very basic but made of the strongest steel available. In short, simple and therefore durable and tough.
