I am looking for a bike for my 6yo daughter for Xmas and I really would prefer one with foot brakes rather than hand brakes on the handlebars. I just think it is easier for them to learn with foot brakes.
I have looked everywherre and really struggled to find a suitable bike - as most of them have hand brakes.
I wondered if anybody has seen girls bikes with foot brakes in Dubai?
TIA

Have you tried Wolfi's? Or there's a bike shop in The Outlet Mall. For what it's worth...my 4 yr old learned to ride on a balance bike and took to a pedal bike in literally five minutes. She can't use foot brakes to save herself though. She's getting a bike with hand brakes for Christmas. ;) My husband recently caught an out of control bike taking it's 4yr old mount down a hill and directly into the path of busy traffic...also foot brakes only. ;)
