The 'Kinderfeets Retro' is part of the Kinderfeets Family which
has been awarded several innovative prizes thanks to its
finishing and footrests.
This beautiful balance-bike designed by the Kinderfeets brand
assures a ton of fun and amusement for your child. The bike is
suitable for children from 2 years old that are at least 85
centimetres tall. It's made from solid and resistant birch wood.
The saddle can be adjusted and put at the right height for your
child. The tires don't contain any air, so it's impossible to
have a flat tire.
The bike also has footrests, where your child can put his or
her feet when he or she has sufficient balance and speed. The
biggest advantage of a balance-bike is that it prepares your
child for a real bike.
Another advantage of this particular balance-bike is that you
can take off the saddle and wash it. The Kinderfeets Retro is
made from solid and durable birch wood, with a nice finish and
cheerful colours and prints.
We're not only using durable wood: our packaging too is made
from recycled cardboard.
Kinderfeets is also easy for grown ups to carry.
Kinderfeets also s a tree for each bicycle it sells!
What does Kinderfeets mean?
The name is derived from the Dutch words for “children” and
“bicycle” but the Dutch word, “Fiets” has been changed to “Feets”
as a play on words.
How do you ride a Kinderfeets?
Learning to ride is very intuitive. Sitting on the Kinderfeets,
kids first walk the bike forward. As they go faster, they stride
with feet off the ground for longer periods of time, ultimately
being able to pull both feet off the ground and coast with their
feet on the pedals. At first they tilt to one side or the other
and their feet catch them like training wheels. Very quickly,
balance becomes second nature and they can coast with their feet
on the pedals. Braking is done by putting both feet down to stop.
How long does it take to learn?
Most children are able to walk/ride the first time they sit
down. They will be able to coast with their feet on the pedals
after a week or two. Each child learns at his/her own pace.
How old does a child have to be to ride the Kinderfeets?
Kinderfeets Classic (including bamboo) (2-5) and Retro (2-5) is
designed for children between the ages of 2 and 5, or as soon as
they can reach the ground while sitting on the lowest seat
position. Kinderfeets Tiny Tot (including Bamboo (1-2) is for
babies as young as 12 months. It starts as a trike and converts
to a 2- wheel balance bike, probably around 17 months.
Is the seat adjustable?
The seat of the Classic and Retro is easily adjustable so
children of all sizes can ride, and ranges from 12 to 16 inches
high. A 2 year old can usually start on a classic or retro.
The seat of the Tiny Tot is adjustable from 8'' to 11'' inch
ABOUT Kinderfeets
Kinderfeets™ is the product of award-winning designer and
Netherlands native, O V. Mulder. Growing up in the
Netherlands, where bicycling is a way of life, O wanted to
share this with his then two-year old son, Sebastiaan, with their
life in San Francisco. O searched for the perfect push bike
to fit Sebastiaan’s needs, but couldn’t find exactly what he was
looking for. The great-grandson of a Dutch bike designer, and a
designer by trade, O pursued the challenge himself and
created a prototype. Once he and his son began cruising around
their neighborhood, neighbors starting asking questions about the
small push bike and urging O to pursue the creation as a
full-fledged business. Kinderfeets was born soon after.
Inspired by traditional Dutch bikes, Kinderfeets is a play on
words for the Dutch word “kinderfiets” which translates to
“child’s bike.” Kinderfeets is a small training bike with a low
step-through frame without pedals that allow children’s feet to
touch the ground–it’s the best way to prepare them for learning
to ride a full-sized bike. The collection has now grown to many
different children’s bikes, all with unique features to help them
learn balance and become comfortable with pedals and riding. The
award-winning quality push-bike models are eco - friendly and
feature a whimsical, patented design.
The entire Kinderfeets product line encourages children to live
an active and adventurous lifestyle alongside their parents. They
allow children to use their imagination wildly—as the whole line
encourages multiple uses and grows along with the child.
Kinderfeets has grown into such a trusted, reputable global brand
in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, Europe, and
of course, the motherland of the Netherlands.
