Guest guest Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 Interesting .... thanks for posting. I am considering getting my DD 10yrs, a trike .... I'm still not sure. I doubt that she will ever learn to bike ride, there are just to many things for her to do at the same time and her balance is off. We were looking at pictures of trikes a few days ago and talking about what it would be like (I found a folding one .. but the one you posted looks like it may even be better) She has training wheels, but now that she needs a bigger bike, the training wheels no longer fit. I'm sure that I could get someone to weld some up for her ... but I'm still not sure that would be a good idea. She can still manage to flip even w/ training wheels. Any ideas?

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Hello!I am a pediatric physical therapist and several of the kids that I work with use Fatwheels training wheels. These training wheels are appropriate for little kids on up into adulthood (there are different sizes.) Here is a link to their website in case you are interested.http://www.fatwheels.com/Good luck!e From: KathieQuinnBoor@ aol.com <KathieQuinnBoor@ aol.com>Subject: Re: [ ] Trike Bike @group s.comDate: Saturday, May 9, 2009, 10:30 AM Interesting .... thanks for posting.
