I always thought it would be cool if the bubble for the handle looked like a velocity stack.

Corporate branding has no place around young children, that is disgraceful! Kids need wholesome activities like riding bikes without the invasive influence of marketing. ...Hey check out my two year old!

Exactly. Let the products sell themselves!
Now, I must get one of those bikes for my little girl.

Haha!!! Bikes without pedals! The only way to teach kids to ride a two-wheeler. Never been able to figure out why more parents don't do it. It just works before you know it the kids are scooting along balancing like they should. No leaning over on training wheels. Well done.

Are you saying that I branded my baby and that's a bad thing? You're probably right Selfishly, I brand myself and just consider her an an extension of me. And, out of all her pacifiers, the KTM one was her favorite. She's a smart girl.

I think we do need draw the line at actual branding. And by that I mean searing the child's flesh with a red hot KTM logo. That I will not do.

"My only complaint with the little balance bike is the solid foam tyres (baby mousse?), they should be tubed. "

+1 on the tyres with tubes.
I was checking the little balance bikes out around Christmas time.
There are others on the market with tube tyres.
KTM needs to get with the program.

Look at that kids smile!
