Islabikes Rothan balance bike review
If you're looking for a kids' bike then you certainly should consider options from Islabikes
A £150 the Rothan isn’t the cheapest balance bike on the market, but factor in all the finer points of detail, such as the rounded allen key bolt through wheel axles that prevent rider injuries in crashes, 12” puncture resistant tyres, and a balance bike specific scooped saddle that helps a bottom stay put and little feel touch the floor, all adds up to giving the feel of a real bike and enhances the experience of riding a bike for the first time. Add to all this a choice of four bright colours, makes it’s perfect for picky toddlers.
