YBIKE Pewi Elite Bike Walking Ride On Toy

Make one for Older Kids with special needs plz!
My niece has a gait trainer but it’s heavy, hard to use and really hard to travel with. She can sit up independently so this allows her independence. She fell a couple of times in the beginning when she lost her footing but has since adapted. One major con is that it will not grow with her. My girl can’t bend her knees enough to use this as a bike but it’s an amazing walker that allows her to sit when needed but because the seat height is not adjustable she will only be able to use it for a little while longer as she has already almost outgrown it. Someone should make one that will grow with kids who need it. It’s wonderfully affordable, very durable and has made a huge difference in her life.

Great for babies learning to walk
My 9 month old wants to stand and walk all the time, but can’t by himself. I didn’t want to walk around hunched over for months until he could walk on his own. I was looking for an alternative to the walkers that babies sit in, for safety reasons. I looked around at my local toy stores, but only found expensive wooden push wagons. Multiple stores told me they usually carry the Pewi but it was so popular, they sold out.I found the Pewi on Amazon for almost half the price of the wooden push wagons.It was really easy to put together. It only took about 15 minutes to get it rolling. It’s very lightweight and compact.My baby absolutely loves it. He’s so proud when he’s walking around by himself. At first we stayed right behind him to catch him, but we slowly just let him do his own thing. It’s really helping with his balance. He wobbles a bit but is able to use his tummy muscles to stay upright. Of course he’s fallen more than a few times, but that’s how babies learn.Overall I think this is a great item and I like the fact that it will grow with him and he’ll be able to ride it around eventually.

Fantastic fun and terrific tipovers: a mixed review
My three stars is not because of indifference but rather ambivalence. I love it but can’t overlook some of the flaws.First the good:- Kids love it. It’s small enough for pre-walkers to reach the ground, but even older toddlers like to ride, despite their legs being too long. Getting several years of use out of a single toy is pretty good for a little person.- Casters are very smooth, and soft rubber wheels do not mar flooring.- The construction and materials are great. The steel tubing, hard plastic, and durable EVA (material used in orthotics) seat pad make a product that doesn’t feel cheap at all.- It’s small and light, transports and stores easily, even light enough to hang on a pegboard or wall hook.Unfortunately, that’s not the end of the story. The bad:- Small casters + energetic little people = major tip hazard. Wheels are big enough to go over sidewalk cracks or very low-profile floor transitions, but hitting a big bump bigger than 1/4-1/2″ with a little momentum will tip the Pewi and rider over, face first. My one-year-old always wears his Giro Scamp Helmet when riding. The falls are not too traumatic with the helmet, but I would not use the Pewi without it. This is the top issue and seems so easy to resolve with bigger casters; I hope YBIKE listens and releases an updated version. I would buy it.- Assembly is straightforward, but the bolts in the kit have way too much threadlocker on them. I stripped out a head trying to tighten the bolt that holds the handle on. I realize this seems like a silly thing to complain about, but I see at least one other reviewer mentioned it so it wasn’t a one-time quality control problem.- If the legs were adjustable somehow, I think it would last even longer. Even medium-tall toddlers are always hitting their heels when they get moving. It doesn’t seem to bother them, though.Despite the problems, this was a good purchase. I would buy it again. Just be sure to find a nice, flat area for your kid to ride and use a helmet.Also, what differentiates the “Elite model” from the regular YBIKE Pewi? A padded EVA seat and different color options. That’s all.

Great bike, but “Elite” features are a joke
We love this little bike! Our one year old zooms all over the house using it as a walker, and has also figured out how to get on and ride it as a bike. It glides around and is very easy for him to maneuver around corners, and the wheels haven’t made any marks or scratches on our floors. Even the plastic parts of the bike that bumps into the wall doesn’t do any damage. At least not yet. 😂The only thing I’m a bit disappointed about was that we paid extra for the “elite” bike because of the “cushioned” seat, which turned out to be basically a piece of foam paper glued to the seat. If you’re considering this option, it’s not worth the extra money.
