The biggest benefit of balance bikes are that kids learn proper balance. Stabilisers let kids tilt to one side, they then have to re-learn balance once they hop on to a pedal bike. Most kids who start on balance bikes are able to quickly transition on to pedal bikes and feel more confident on them too.

Balance bikes are one of the best tools out there for helping your toddler develop their gross motor skills.
