Product Reviews: Wishbone Bike

The joy that a newborn baby brings to any home hardly compares to anything else. The excitement that parents usually have means that many are always ready to break the bank just to purchase anything than can aid in the development of the child. However, as many parents learn the hard way, many of the items they end up buying prove to be unnecessary, or the child simply doesn't fall in love with them. Some are rendered useless as the child growth. One of the best escape parents have to this situation has to the Wishbone Bike, the other great thing to have come from New Zealand after the All Blacks. 

Quick Description of the Wishbone Bike

The Wishbone bike, unlike ordinary running bikes, practically grows together with the child. The product starts at age one as a simple trike, and slowly evolves to a running bike as the child grows. By the time the child is four or five years of age, its frame can be flipped, thus making the Wishbone bike the largest among the available running bikes. Designed in New Zealand, this three-in-one bike comes with a highly environmentally friendly make and is beyond doubt the ideal pre-bike for any child, irrespective of gender. The wheels of any Wishbone bike are made with 60% recycled plastic and the bike itself from eco-friendly products.  

Features of the Wishbone Bike

The Wishbone bike comes with a whole load of unique features that have made it one of the most talked about product in its line. Here are some of the features of the Wishbone bike that have endeared it to many kids and parents alike:

1. The frame: The frame of the Wishbone bike makes the most of most of the latest trends in manufacturing. Like many frame builders are currently doing, natural materials have been incorporated in designing the frame. This includes materials like bamboo, wood and recycled paper to make certain buying a Wishbone bike is service rather than a threat to nature.
2. Wheel sets: In the same spirit of conservatism, the wheels of the Wishbone bike are made from recycled plastic. It comes with extra wheels which are to be installed as the child graduates. The tyres of the Wishbone bike are white non-marking tyres with a generator strip to ensure they can be noticed even in the dark.
3. Saddle: The Wishbone bike saddle is a simple strip of wood with half an inch of foam padding for a comfortable ride.

Other details of the Wishbone bike include an adjustable seat ranging from 11 to 18 inches. The Wishbone bike weighs slightly over 8 pounds and the trike 12 pounds. The major downside of the Wishbone bike is that the wooden frame gives is a somehow rigid nature that slightly compromises the ride quality. The turning radius thus becomes much wider than necessary. Aside from that, it is by far a very good product to purchase for the developing child. The Wishbone bike is designed for kids between one and five years provided they can walk.
