How to choose?
The most important factor when choosing balance bikes is their seat height. It is very good if it can be adjusted to your liking. When kids ride a balance bike, they kick off with their feet. Normally, the legs are placed on the ground with the whole foot and slightly bent at the knees. It is not difficult to ensure this: after measuring the leg from the inside to the crotch, subtract 0.03-0.05 m, this will be the desired height of the saddle fixation.

remember, that choosing a balance bike "for growth" is a stupid and even irrational exercise. Children experience great discomfort with constant standing on their toes. The need to do this even undermines self-confidence and forces you to give up skating.
Adjusting the steering wheel in height is somewhat relevant only for children from 3 years old. At a young age, the weight of the product is much more important.
