The balance bike market report provides a detailed analysis of global Industry size share, regional and country-level, industry size, market segments, industry growth, sales analysis, impact of market players.

Market Overview:

A running bicycle without pedals, gears, or chains is called a balance bike. For young toddlers in particular, it makes the transition from walking to riding simple. Children perch on the low-slung bike with their feet on the ground and move forward on their own without assistance from anyone else. This gives kids a chance to practice balancing and steering the bike before having to learn how to pedal like on a normal bicycle. 

Running cycles, pre-bikes, and push bikes are some common names for balance bikes. Today's market offers a wide range of styles and preferences, including metal bikes, wooden bikes, bikes with hand brakes, and bikes with footrests. They are small, typically weighing under 10 pounds, and low to the ground, making them suitable for toddlers as young as 2 years old. 

Children can learn to ride the balance bike at their own speed without feeling under pressure to learn to balance and pedal at the same time as on a normal bicycle because the design excludes pedals. From sitting and walking to sitting and running to eventually lifting their feet off the ground and gliding, children sit on the balance bike. Balance, steering, and coordination abilities can be rapidly mastered, and the self-assurance gained by beginning on a balance bike can help a child learn to ride a pedal bike without training wheels as young as 4 years old.

Balance Bike Market Report Scope:

Report Highlights:

• By product, the metal bike segment is expected to capture the largest market share over the forecast period. The proliferation of lightweight (10–14 lbs.) metal cycles around the world is credited with the expansion of the metal balance bike market. Due to the nature of the material, wooden balance bikes lack mounting points for extra accessories while metal balance bikes give a variety of seat configuration options. Due to this aspect, metal balance bikes are now more popular on the international market. On the other hand, the wooden bike segment is growing at the highest CAGR. Better impact absorption is provided by wooden bicycles. Baltic birch hardwood with multiple layers is used to make them. Compared to balance bikes made of metal, wooden balance cycles are lighter. The fact that wooden balance bikes are environmentally friendly is another factor driving the development of the wooden bike market. The age of the children and the accessibility of the storage facility are taken into account when selecting a balance cycle.
• By application, the home use segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. Younger children are frequently given their first cycling training on balance bikes. Balance bikes are typically used at homes for exercise. As a result, the domestic use segment rules the market for balance bikes globally. Toddlers 18 months to 2 years old are introduced to balance bikes; children in this age range are capable of learning balance bikes at home with parental supervision for appropriate safety. Thus, this is expected to drive the segmental growth.

Market Dynamics:

Drivers:

Growing obesity cases in children

Every fifth child in the United States is at danger of obesity, and in the past 30 years, the rate of childhood obesity has doubled, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Given that juvenile obesity has emerged as a significant global issue. Balance bikes have caught parents' notice due to this growing health concern. Toddlers can engage in a regular, enjoyable physical activity while riding a balance bike, which is regarded as a possible form of exercise. This element is fueling the global market for balance bikes to expand.

Restraint:

Threat from refurbished bicycles

Throughout the projection period, the threat posed by reconditioned bicycles will be a significant roadblock for the market for balance bikes. The majority of the increase in sales of refurbished bicycles can be attributed to consumers who are on a tight budget and refrain from purchasing new bicycles. Market participants are being drawn to adopt the refurbished bicycle business model by the growing demand for used bicycles. In the UK, ReCycle Bikes sells recycled bicycles. Skilled mechanics completely disassemble bicycles down to the frame, rebuild them, and then reassemble them. Refurbished bicycles are for sale in Italy due to Boeris Bikes SAS. To ensure rider safety, bicycles are expertly restored and fixed by qualified professionals. If more consumers choose used bicycles, there will be less of a market for brand-new bicycles. The revenue of the global balance bike market will be impacted as a result.

Opportunities:

Growing middle class and increasing disposable income

• The growing middle class and rising personal disposable income are expected to have a positive impact on the balance bike market in the upcoming years. In recent years, there has been a significant change in people's lifestyles in both developed economies like the US and Germany and emerging economies like China and India. Higher disposable incomes have improved people's purchasing power and standard of living, especially in developing countries like China and India. 
• The demand for children's balance bikes at organized multi-brand retail outlets is increasing as a result of the rapid urbanization and rising disposable income in these countries, which is also assisting market vendors in raising their profits. Throughout the projection period, balance bike purchases for kids are anticipated to increase due to the growth in the middle-class population. The rising middle-class population and rising personal disposable income will therefore have a favorable effect on the development of the market under consideration.
