This growing bike will certainly appeal to smart shoppers and economical parents. Rather than having to purchase different bicycles as your child develops and gets taller, this model adjusts to your kid's age.

The adaptable Recycled Edition bike from [Wishbone Design Studio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/childrens-wishbone-chair) is also environmentally friendly as it is made entirely out of recycled carpet. Based in Spain, Wishbone Design Studio created the growing bike based on the cradle to cradle concept.

Intended for young ones aged 1 to 6 years, the bicycle easily adjusts to the size of the rider, especially as they get older. It has three modes: a pushable tricycle, a two-wheeler balance bike and a larger framed version. Pedals and gears can also be added for those who want to get a head's start on proper bicycle riding.
