Tron-Tastic Two-Wheeler For Toddlers

Unsurprisingly, the kids of my bike-polo personification friends are roving two-wheelers before they obtain to 3 years old, but is to young kids of reduction bike-obsessed parents, the standard trail to learning to float is by the push-bike. These are pedal-less bikes that the kids lay on and bestir along with their feet.

They are moreover often deceased boring, possibly fashioned from timber to a pattern that would make a Scandinavian mom unapproachable (tasteful, but a complete fall asleep for a toddler) or solid aged cosmetic tat. Enter the Light Cycle learning bike, written for by Ryan Callahan. As you can see, the Tron -themed light motorcycle is flattering damn awesome, and its long wheelbase moreover creates it look similar to an aged Harley or even a pocket-sized Honda Goldwing (Kinda. If you flicker the correct way).

Ryan isn't only a cool-dad candidate. He's moreover a planner at the great Trek bicycle company, and this model was built for this year's just-ended Trek World traffic show. Ryan not only mocked the bike up in CAD software, but built a prototype, too. If we was a kid, I'd regard it was completely overwhelming and take it out for a turn immediately. As a fully-formed human being, I'd may do precisely the same. Right up until my 90 kilos dejected it in to the prosaic light grid beneath, at least.

Here, at last, is a hubless bike that we can obtain behind.
