THERE IS ONLY ONE FirstBIKE! FIRST SENSE OF BALANCE FIRST SENSE OF FUN FIRST SENSE OF ADVENTURE
THE FirstBIKE STORY ONE MAN, ONE MISSION; TWO WHEELS Ralf Coerschulte, an avid German cyclist, product designer, and father, developed FirstBIKE with one goal: to build the best balance bike for younger children, allowing them to learn to ride a bike intuitively and without stress. After years of fi ne-tuning and testing, he succeeded in creating a unique product that is deemed to be the safest in its category in terms of supporting a child s physical development. FirstBIKE has also proven to be a great helper when it comes to the development of a child s self-confi dence, and enjoyment of learning. A diligent effort to amalgamate a lightweight frame, functionality, durability, safety and visual allure with a competitive price point has been realized with the FirstBIKE. We all know that technological development with products is rapidly changing. The developers of the FirstBIKE are what I see as one of the leading pioneers in the future of that development.
