Professional bike stabilisers fitting - positioned correctly to help children learn balance while providing backup support. First bike adventures, safely.
### Learning To Ride
Stabilisers give confidence for first bike rides. **But they need positioning correctly** - too flat to the ground and children never learn to balance. A slight gap teaches balancing while the stabilisers catch falls.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Set stabilisers about 5mm off the ground when the bike is upright. Child learns to balance but has backup when they tip.

Frequently Asked Questions about Bike stabilisers fitting in Exmouth
How should stabilisers be positioned?
Slightly above ground level - about 5mm clearance when bike is upright. This teaches balance while providing backup. Flat to the ground doesn't teach balancing at all.
Do stabilisers work on all bikes?
Most children's bikes with solid rear axles, yes. Some bikes with quick-release or through-axles need adapters. We check compatibility.
Are balance bikes better than stabilisers?
Many think so - they teach balance directly. But stabilisers still work and let children pedal from the start. Either approach works.
When should stabilisers come off?
When the child is confident and you notice they're barely using them anymore. Usually around 4-6 depending on the child. We can remove them too.
