Buying balance bikes for kids is often tricky and becomes a more frequent endeavor then you'd like, due to kids' propensity to grow really fast and outgrow their bike. Doppelganger is looking to tackle this issue with its ingenious Ace Bike. The Ace Bike has an adjustable frame that can be manipulated to give the bike added height as your kids grow taller.
By adjusting the frame with a few simple tools, you can ensure that the Ace Bike can accommodate your little ones until they weigh about 55 pounds.
While plastic isn't the strongest material with which to build a bike, it is certainly one of the cheapest. This is a good thing, as it means Doppelganger's Ace balance bike will cost you only $88.
