The YBIKE from Kickstarter.

Check out this brilliant concept – the YBIKE, the world’s first 3-in-1 smart bike for kids launched from Kickstarter.

The way that Kickstarter works is that people see a concept they would like to back and help to fund. There are several levels of backing eg £5, £20, £50. Any backer paying £50 will receive one of the first bikes to be made at that cost. Once the Bikes are launched they will be around £160 rrp. For a bike that would last for 3 years and potentially more than one child, think of the money saved! Not to mention the space – I love the idea! Plus, no technical skills are needed to change the bike, brilliant!

The evolve begins as a trike to develop peddling skills, before transforming into a balance trike, and finally into an advanced balance bike – all with a simple and easy mechanism.

Many children grow to love their bikes, learn to trust them, and are wary of new ones. The Evolve bike was designed to leverage that trust.

A truly fantastic concept.
