Tesla Balance Bike

This is a balance bike meant to attract the dads who are fans of the brand rather than a balance bike meant to be good for kids.

First the handlebar is too large for small hands and comes with no grips, second the top tube is too wide to be comfortable between the legs and the whole frame is just edges.

If you want a good balance bike look for brands like prevelo [0] or woom [1] who have been designing kid bikes for years.

Just buy your kid a good quality pedal bike [0], and take the pedals off.

That way they can learn to use the brakes, and when you put the pedals on, they will quickly learn to cycle it. Took my daughter an afternoon.

Every bike is a balance bike. That's how bikes work.

No doubt it's just a spray painted OEM product from China.

Can’t wait to see these with “F Elon” stickers in San Francisco.

technically this is a hobby-horse, not a bike

How about for grownups? Those old ICE motorcycles are still making city centers noisy and it would be nice to start phasing them out with electric.

This is pretty cool, but seems like a massive waste of time for Tesla.

....Why?!
