Your little rider is nearly ready to roll. Our curated range of baby balance bikes is built for first-time riders from around 12 months+, giving them a safe way to build balance, core strength and confidence before they ever touch pedals. At Gear Force we focus on wide wheelbases, low step-through frames and no-pinch steering so parents can relax while toddlers explore.
Why choose a baby balance bike?
-
Lower, safer design: mini frames and low seats so 1–2 year olds can flat-foot on the ground.
-
Wide, silent wheels: indoor-friendly and perfect for timber, tiles or outdoor paths.
-
No pedals, no chains: just push, glide and learn balance naturally.
-
Lightweight for parents: easy to carry to the park or chuck in the car.
This makes our bikes ideal for searches like “baby balance bike Australia”, “toddler balance bike 1 year old” and parents comparing “Baby Bunting style balance bikes”.

How to pick the right size
Measure your child’s inseam and match to the seat height. Your toddler should be able to sit down and keep both feet flat. When in doubt, choose the model with an adjustable seat so it grows from 1 to 3 years.

FAQs – Baby Balance Bikes
1. What age is a baby balance bike for?
Most of our models suit 12–36 months. Check each product’s height/weight guide – some start as early as 10–12 months if your baby is steady on their feet.
2. Do I need a helmet for indoor riding?
We recommend a kids’ helmet anytime wheels are involved, especially once your toddler starts picking up speed outdoors.
3. Which is safer – 3-wheel or 2-wheel?
Three or four wheels are better for very young riders because they prevent tipping. Move to two wheels once your child can push and balance confidently.
4. Can these be used outdoors?
Yes – most have EVA or PU wheels that won’t puncture and can handle footpaths and driveways. Avoid rough gravel on the tiny-wheel baby models.
5. Why buy from Gear Force?
We stock kid-tested bikes, fast Australian shipping, and sizes that move your child from baby balance bike → toddler balance bike → full balance bike without changing brands.
