The GOMO three-wheel balance bike tries too hard to be clever

The 2-in-1 concept — a three-wheel balance bike that converts — sounds like it should work better than it does. In practice, the three-wheel config feels wobbly at speed and doesn’t actually teach the balancing skill that a balance bike is supposed to teach. My kid learned more on a regular two-wheel balance bike in two days than on this thing in two weeks. If you’re buying a balance bike, buy one that does the core job well.
