Can training wheels be attached? My son will be 7 in Feb and hasn't been taught how to ride without them yet.

There ate holes on the frame where it looks like you could attach them, but I would recommend a smaller bike if he's still at training wheel stage.

Yes I Believe you can, the bike is not I front of me at the moment, but, I think you can. The only issue as I see it, that it might be taller than the training wheel bracket.

Nope! No need for training wheels! It attaches to a bike and the child still pedals, but doesn't have to worry about tipping over.

It comes with 2 wheels. You could conceivably buy and attach 2 more but it would compromise its stability and therefore your child's safety. Your call of course

I suppose it depends on where the training wheels are. The only way to find out is to try and if not it can be a reward for them learning to ride without training wheels. Either way a win-win!

As far as I know it is not designed to be used in conjunction alongside training wheels. I brought it to get my 7 year old autistic son to learn to ride his bike without them, and to help him learn to balance and used to controlling his bike without them. Not sure where you are from, but I have seen 12 inch bikes that have a handle attached to them for parental control and still have the training wheels. The Balance Buddy is attached to the nuts on the back wheels of the child's bike so you would not be able to have it, plus training wheels on your son's bike.

I would say 2 to 5 years old but it also depends on the size of the child and if they need training wheels. My son was 3 when we got this for him and he quickly grew out of it because of his height.

Training wheels would be perfect for your daughter. You might want to check with Schwinn if you can purchase training wheels. You might want to check with a bike shop if they can add the attachments for training wheels. Other brands might have training wheels as an option. Good Luck.

YES. This is age appropriate for a 3 year old if they are on the taller side (for the 16 inch), my daughter received this at 3 1/2 and used it last summer and can still ride it this summer. She loves the baby seat and the training wheels are sturdy.

My 3.5 year old used/uses this bike regularly. You will need to keep the training wheels on for that age.

Not at all. We are just now teaching our daughter, 5-1/2 and 45", to ride this bike without training wheels - we raised the seat this weekend and it's still a perfect fit. Neighbors with 7-8 year olds also use this size bike, which I think is the top end of the age/size range for the frame and wheel size.

Hi, I don't recall seeing one since my daughter has the training wheels on hers. Just so you know, I've noticed that it's hard for my daughter to pedal even with the training wheels (I even tried it and found it to be difficult!). I'm not sure if there's any easier way to pedal by loosening a section of the pedal, etc.

Why would you? Get a smaller bike if you need to. My son took his trianing wheels off himself when he was 5. It's a good bike. We put mud tread tires on it for and he likes it that way.

My son is 7 and rides it without issues. Your son will grow into it, and the larger tires handle bumps far better than the 4" razor wheels. Tire wise, it's much safer. Get tuff skin for the tires, which protects the tubes when off-roading.

Probably not cause it has the training wheels on it. Overall it's not a good bike. This is my 2nd one. The first one fell apart in a few months and my son hardly rode it. So I got a replacement from the maker. This one is pretty much falling apart too. It's a good concept but not durable.

No, it does not come with training wheels and no, there is not a safe place to put training wheels. This motorcycle moves really, really fast. As fast as an adult bicycle going very fast down a very steep hill. It should NOT be ridden by someone who is not comfortable on two wheels.

Yes, it can be used with training wheels, you may need a larger bolt to accommodate. Your issue is pushing with the balance buddy (I also mentioned this in my review). There is a single bolt attachment on each side. Thus the balance buddy bar rotates forward as you push on the bike. I too thought you could push with the balance bar. No matter how hard you tighten it, the balance bar will rotate forward. If you purchase some draw ties, you can find points to prevent the bar from rotating forward.
