Kid's bikes with no pedals

We have a little blue Kokua pedal-less bike (bought at Wolfis) which I'm about to put on dubizzle. We bought it last year for our 2 year old and (as promised) he's now able to ride a "big boy" bike at 3 which I'm fairly amazed at since our elder son (who didn't have one of these) took much longer to ride. If you are interested, can you leave me your email address? I'd leave mine but I don't understand how to post something and then later remove the details! If you want a brand new one, I know Wolfi's said they get a new batch most months, just that they sell fast, maybe give them your contact no?

I know you're looking for a pedal-less bike, but check this out. http://www.thegyrobike.com/category-s/93.htm We have a like-a-bike from Wolfi's but I completely wish I had bought this instead. Wow...clever idea. You made a good choice with the like-a-bike too though. My son started on one and, when he was ready, transitioned to a slightly too big pedal bike in literally 30 minutes. No training wheels ever and he has a really good sense of balance because he had to balance the 'balance bike' on his own from day 1. His success was so impressive that we are very happy we invested in the second like-a-bike for our daughter (s). :)

Try calling the HABA shop. it is one street in from the Sh Z rd slip road just before Junction 3 (Al Manara). It has great quality imported toys and they used to stock an excellent range of kids bikes and scooters. 04 43404061

I have also been on a quest to find one! I have seen them in one of the children's shops in Dubai Mall (sorry can't remember the name). Also Hamleys had a couple varieties. Bumblebee had them.

The sports shop in Marina Mall next to Favourite Things has them as well. Specialized brand which is also very good quality and not as expensive as Kouka from Wolfi's.

Is Wolfi's getting more in? We bought one there for my daughter...paid an arm and a leg for it but it's fantastic quality and will be fine for the younger one to use when it's her turn. The first balance bike we bought 3 yrs ago from Imaginarium in Wafi. It was also expensive and not as good quality as the one from Wolfi, but it did the job well and survived my boisterous boy.
