The Skuut is a wooden bike for children ages 2 - 5. It has no pedals and no training wheels. Children kick off the ground as if running, thus pushing or “skoot-ing” themselves and the bike forward. The Skuut is perfect for learning balance, steering, coordination and independence. Having mastered balance on the Skuut, the transition to a traditional two wheeler bike is easy (without training wheels!)

The tires are pneumatic rubber. They can tolerate up to 40PSI, but we suggest 20-25 PSI for best shock absorption.
Is there a warranty?
We guarantee all Skuuts to be free of manufacturing defects for up to one year.
Care of your Skuut
Skuuts are pretty hardy, but when your Skuut gets wet or has been to the beach, do clean it off with a moist cloth, and dry it. It shouldn’t be left outside in the rain or direct sun.
How do you pronounce Skuut?
(skoot) as in boot, loot, scoot
