Mountain Buggy Unirider One Wheel Bike - Yellow by Mountain Buggy

Product Information

I need a scooter that is a good long term investment, plus reliable and practical for getting around so I don't end up carrying it with one hand while looking after a frustrated toddler! Help! Mountain Buggy® reserves the right to use the entries for promotional purposes without any further compensation to the participants. Make those local adventures fun and dynamic for your toddler, with the innovative and multi award winning freerider™.

Any disputes arising out of or in connection with the Competition shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New Zealand. So it's definitely a case of practice makes perfect when it comes to the unirider. As we whizzed around the house (without any passengers on board!) we found a definite art to the steering and driving of the unirider. The unirider only has its one wheel to balance on and it was hard to get used to keeping balance in straight lines on this small surface area - not to mention when we tried to turn corners! We did find that a bit of speed and momentum helped with this though!The Competition will commence on 17th October and close on 7th November at 5pm SGT. Entries received after this date and time will not be accepted. As a one of the kind, brand new product to the market, it is hard to compare the design of the unirider to anything else out there. One thing is for sure, the design is innovative and takes a huge great big stride outside the box. The unirider arrives in a compact, neat little box and takes approximately three minutes to assemble. We built the unirider with the ‘help' of two very eager toddlers who were hankering after a turn on this incredible new mode of transport! The visual instructions are extremely easy to follow. The main body of the unirider consists of a 12" air filled wheel, surrounded by a hard and durable bright yellow seat unit. The seat of the unirider seems quite small but when tested with a leggy, 17kg, nearly 5 year old, he was able to sit comfortably on the seat and pop his legs in position on the footrests.

Competition entries become the property of Phil and Teds Most Excellent Buggy Company Limited, which will keep the personal information it holds about entrants confidential and will not disclose it to third parties. The method of selecting winners will be a draw. There will be multiple draws and Mountain Buggy® will allocate entries to each draw, in their absolute discretion, whilst allowing each entry to participate in only one draw. The unirider is easy to assemble and store and made of fabulous quality materials that can definitely handle whatever you may throw at it. The 1:1 time spent pushing and riding the unirider is valuable bonding time for parent and child to enjoy great fun and make brilliant memories. It gives a great opportunity for your child to develop their core whilst helping parents to stay fit and active also.Winners will be notified using details provided, within a reasonable time after the close of the Competition. Speaking of tiredness, the unirider is great for developing the driver's fitness also. If you aren't already used to giving your lungs, abs and arms a good workout then the unirider is a great way to do this! With a child of the highest weight limit taking a ride, the unirider can be quite a physical workout to push, especially if on grass or rough ground. Keeping the handlebar balanced takes some skill. We found the unirider fine to use in short bursts and even easier to use when a child at the lower end of the weight limit was riding. With its three sturdy, light up wheels; freerider™ is perfect for the independent toddler who wants a bit of freedom throughout their walk, or it's great for your older child who can ride attached to the buggy while their younger sibling rests.

When tested with a younger passenger, at 2 years old, it was much easier to push although we did have to be careful around corners as the younger child did not seem to be able to find their balance quite so easily.

It is not to be sniffed at the fantastic positive attributes riding the unirider can give to your child's physical development. Developing core muscles as a child attributes to greater control in gross and fine motor skills, in turn leading children being able to handle small tools such as paint brushes and pencils with greater accuracy and strength as they grow and develop further. Riding the unirider is the perfect core workout for your little person - but take it steady, even though your child is resting their legs whilst on a unirider, it's quite a physical job for the passenger to keep their balance, especially if you are whizzing around at a jogging pace, your passenger might get tired! Mountain Buggy® reserves the right to disqualify any entry that does not comply with the Competition rules or these Terms and Conditions. Getting the passengers on board was another practice, practice, practice situation. Before we started we popped helmets on the children, safety first, always. Once your child has got the hang of riding the unirider, it turns into a fun filled bonding experience for parent and child if you dare to try new things together such as going over tiny bumps and over rougher terrain.
