Flexible training wheels that teach real cycling skills.
As if there were no stabilizers at all — your child pedals, leans into turns, and builds confidence from the very first ride.

Learning
2x faster
Have you noticed it too?
For 50 years, parents have been given two choices: training wheels that don't teach balance, or a balance bike that doesn't teach pedaling.
The same design for 50 years
Two rigid bars, two wheels. The recipe has never changed. What if we could do better today?
Balance bikes skip the pedals
Kids learn to stay upright, but not to pedal. The result: when they hop on a real bike, half the work is still ahead of them.
The transition — a moment parents dread
The day the training wheels come off, everything starts over. Falls, tears, parents running alongside the bike: the rite of passage is rarely smooth.
What if training wheels actually taught cycling?
Confident from the first ride
Your child feels safe and dares to go for it. No fear, no hesitation — just fun.
They lean into turns, just like on a real bike
The bike tilts naturally left and right. Your child feels the real sensations of two-wheeled riding.
Balance builds itself
Core, arms, abs — all the right muscles work without your child even noticing.
Taking the wheels off? A breeze.
Your child already knows how to balance. The switch to a real bike happens smoothly, without tears or struggle.

Frequently asked questions
Baswil is designed for 12–16 inch children’s bikes. Compatibility depends on the rear axle mounting point, not just the brand or wheel size. Check the guide before buying; if unsure, contact us with the model and a photo of the rear axle.
From 3-4 years old, once your child can pedal a bike with training wheels. Baswil is designed for 12 to 16-inch bikes, which fits children roughly 3 to 6 years old. It replaces the original rigid stabilizers.
A balance bike works on balance without pedaling. Baswil combines both: your child pedals AND develops balance through natural lean in the turns. It's the perfect step between a balance bike and a two-wheel bike, or a direct alternative for kids who never used a balance bike.
Most parents see real progress within 2 to 4 weeks of regular use. Your child naturally develops balance and coordination, which makes the move to a bike without stabilizers far smoother than with classic training wheels.
Installation takes a few minutes depending on the bike, using a standard spanner. Follow the included illustrated guide for fitting and adjustment. For 12–16 inch bikes with a compatible rear axle mounting point.
You have 30 days from delivery to return the product in its original condition. Baswil covers return shipping. Your refund is issued within 14 days of receiving the return. Baswil is also covered by a 2-year manufacturer warranty against any design defect.

Baswil is built for children up to about 30 kg, which covers the full 3-6 year age range comfortably. The composite material keeps its flexibility and strength even after heavy use. The blades have been tested over thousands of lean cycles without any loss of performance.
No specific maintenance is required. Just check from time to time that the mounting nuts on the rear axle are tight, the same way you would for any bike part. The flexible blades need no lubrication, no periodic adjustment and no replacement parts.
Yes, no problem at all. Baswil keeps its flexibility over time and the system comes off in 5 minutes with a single wrench. Many parents pass it on to friends, family or sell it second-hand once their child no longer needs it. It's also a gift that can serve several children in turn.
Baswil is designed for children aged 3 to 6, which corresponds to 12 to 16-inch bikes. That's the age when motor development allows balance to be learned and when children have the strength to pedal independently. Beyond age 6, kids are usually ready to move directly to a bike with no assistance.
