Here’s my method of riding a bike 1. Make sure your feet are comfortable on the petal 2. Put your dominant food in the pedal, and your other foot on the ground, do not put both feet on the pedals, you have a high chance of falling off. 3. Kick your non dominant foot in the ground like riding a skateboard. This can help on adding speed. Once you got enough speed, put that same foot on the pedal. 4. Do not look at your feet while riding the bike, this happened to me while I was trying to ride it, you could fall off and become more anxious of riding the bike. 5. If you feel like falling down, use the brakes, if you don’t have any, use your foot and kick it on the ground to balance your bike again. 6. In case your going fast, use your foot on the ground and leave it there until the bike stops, you can use your brakes, but that will only slow it down (unless of course, you have really amazing brakes) 7. Ride during the day, riding in the night will be hard to practice, you may crash into

why do i get the feeling the kid already knew how to ride a bike? oh well

For someone who just learned how to ride a bike it’s crazy that he could ride it one handed to do a thumbs up

"What's your name?" Kid gives full name. Every parent: *facepalm*

Not only can he miraculously learn how to ride a bike in 5 minutes..he can also ride with one hand and wave…what a genius!

Could not get my daughter to learn last year. Today I asked her to try again, I used this method, she was riding in 15 minutes. I cried. Thank you Sir!

I thought that this video was crap. I still gave it a try with my seven year old daughter. No lie she was riding by her self in 5 minutes. what the hell??? Thank you for posting. I am grateful.

give this kid a gold medal for his acting

I think that boy already knows how to ride a bike

Title "How to ride a bike in less than 5 minutes" Video lenght: 5:01 Me: "What is this scam?"

Worked like a charm. 5 years old is now a two wheel rider! Thank you sir!

Holy cow, it worked for my 10 year old. 5 minute guarantee worked for this single mom. After the step one no helmet, I was skeptical, and then I honestly couldn’t believe it had worked. And so quickly. Nothing else worked for us. Amazing. 10/10 recommend. (I didn’t just push off and leave him to the wolves though; I did hold on for a little bit until he felt comfortable which was about 90 seconds) I think the fact he knew he could catch himself gave him the confidence he needed.

I'm 17, and I'm about to teach my 22 year old friend how to ride a bike, hope this works lol

My son and I watched this video, went out to try it out and within 5 minutes he learned to ride ! This video really helped, thank you !

are we just gonna overlook the little girl that said she didn't know how to ride a bike and his respone: …."you don't? well, we're going to find someone that does..." lol the lean tips are good but i am not buying that this kid didn't know how to ride before this 5 minute "tutorial".....this video is informative but hilarious at the same time...

Ok, I know the boy in this video could already ride but I tried this with my daughter and it worked. Of course a lot more practice will be needed on starting, stopping and steering but she's balancing and cruising on her own now.

Your ability to ride a bike is almost exponential if you put the time into it. I learned how to bike a year and a half ago and am now a dh racer. I wish the best of luck to you guys

I have been trying to teach my kids for weeks. Holding his neck running next to him and he would fall over. After applying the lean and free drop exercises. I held the seat and he took off. It was UNBELIEVABLE. THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR. VERY IMPRESSIVE

Lots of haters on here, who cares if he doesn’t use a helmet, he’s right I grew up and no one wore a helmet. I used all his advice except that part and guess what haters can do the same thing, wow. Use the information as you see fit, to each his own. I used this on my daughter today who has never been able to ride without training wheels and it took me about ten minutes to get her to understand the balancing part and she took off and is riding on her own. Thank you! I know we still have work to do but the hard part is over and now it’s just refining her skills.

This kid already knew how to ride a bike

i think that boy alredy know , how to ride

Helmets save lives. It saved my brothers.

The kid should take oscar for his good acting

I had my doubts about your method because it looked too good to be true, but after using it for 10 minutes, my 4 yo kid learned to ride the bike. Today I have helped another 4 yo to ride, in no time. This really works! Thank you!

Kid: *tries to grab helmet Man: nope!

Literally did this method with my 4 yr old boy and he learned in even less than 5 minutes! He’s been riding with training wheels firmly in the ground for two years. The past two weeks we moved the training wheels up so that he had to practice leaning and I told him to practice not letting the training wheels touch the ground. Today he said he wanted the training wheels off. I assured him he would fall but after teaching him this method he never fell! He was able to catch himself because he first learned how to lean and put his foot out! Wonderful video sir! THANK YOU!

This helped a lot. We've been working on it for days and making little progress. Just the exercise of letting them feel the weight. Helmet is good, but it wasn't necessary right away; slowly coasting on a basketball court? C'mon people.

Both myself and my husband were struggling to teach our twin boys to ride without training wheels. Out of frustration I turned to KZfaq and found this video. All I can say is what a difference it made! Within 5 mins of following his instructions the boys were able to ride for short distances …100% improvement. At this rate I think we will have them riding independently in no time at all.

Trained my 6 and 8 year old using this technique. My 6 year old son took off on the first push, it took my 8 year old daughter several attempts to build her confidence but she got it too. Took a total of 5 and 15 minutes. Working on the second step of pushing off themselves took a few more minutes but both have that down now as well.

I was skeptical at first but this totally worked. I just came back from a bike riding session with my son and he nailed it in 5 minutes. Thanks for this video

This actually worked. My daughter has been struggling for months. Thank you!!

4:51 him just casually pulling a one hander JUST after learning how to ride a bike.

This method worked for us today with our 6 year old daughter. 20 minutes and she was riding for minutes non-stop. GREAT VIDEO!!! THANK YOU!!!

This actually works. My 6yo daughter was really afraid to learn to bike. So we just waited until she said by herself she wants to give it a try. We watched this video together, tried it.. and in 1-2 minutes later she was biking. Thank you for this video! I’m really surprised and amazed.

the acting was quite good until he started having a perfect balance with 1 hand on the bike.

oh so this is what it feels like to have a childhood

I watched the entire video and taught my 7 year old daughter with the same exact same instructions! She learned how to ride in 10 minutes!!! Lol!! Amazing!!! Thanks for the help!!

I have been trying for 2 years to teach my son to ride on my own. I have watched tons of videos about taking pedals off and push around. I was running with him and he was pushing and coasting and still couldn't get it. I tried this method and in five minutes he was able to do it without me running next to him. THIS DOES WORK.... PLEASE TRY AND DON'T GIVE UP.

I'm 26 and today is the day !!

This is great!! For my 5 year old, the fall exercise is the most important, helps build self trust with falling

This worked like a charm for my daughter who couldn't learn with a lot of other training. Anyone who is seeing comments trying to figure out if this works or not, please give it a try. It's worth trying.

This video : 7 years ago Comment section: 1 day ago

Tried to teach my son how to ride a bike on my own, epic fail. Came to KZfaq University and watched this video. He rode on day two in less than 10 minutes! It works! Thank you so much for this video!

Look, we were trying to learn our 5 year old daughter on every possible way but she was afraid, we tried balance bike, this and that hold it release it and so on nothing worked. We watched this video today and like most of the comments here we had our doubts to the methodology and that the kid knew already to ride a bike, but we where desperate and said let's try. Our daughter learned to ride a bike in 2-3 minutes which we couldn't believe it. Thank you so much for making our daughter so happy today !

You thought me how to ride a bike today, I'm 36. Thanks Daddy Patrick not everyone had a dad. You my dad now. No cap!!

Watched this video at 6pm. Taught 9 year old daughter how to ride at 7:30pm. 5 year old son sees her ride, gets inspired and asks me to remove his training wheels too. Both kids riding bikes really well by 8pm. I followed your directions exactly. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don’t comment on any videos, but this actually worked. We had been practicing but he (6 yr old) was super scared of falling. Followed this method (except with a helmet) and the next ride down, he had it! Unconventional but it worked for us.

Everyone saying this is fake, I literally taught my kid in 5 minutes. It works!

This helped me teach my 7 year old daughter in less than 10mins for sure. Thank u

This is legit. I told my daughter it would work on three conditions: 1: Try your best; 2: Believe in yourself because you can do it!; 3: Trust me. ... ... She was riding in 10 minutes. After about 15 minutes of practice, she had the courage to get going on her own (without my hand on the seat giving her a 3-2-1). Now... off to the rail trail! Thank you so much for sharing! (^_^)

It actually works!!! The protective dad in me kept wanting to run along side and keep shouting encouragement but he picked it very quickly. I kept reminding him keep peddling and look ahead. Thanks for this video!

Poor little girl. Do you know how to ride a bike? No. I'm just going to pass over you.

This was awesome! My son was so down on himself that he couldn't ride. We watched this and 5 min later he was riding a bike! Thank you so much.

This boy is already know how to ride a bike his not a first timer

So I tried your method to teach my 2 stepdaughters how to ride a bike without any assistive hardware and I have to say it worked incredibly well. The were riding within the 5 minutes. They were not afraid, in fact they were confident because they knew they had the skills necessary to deal with any balance, steering and stopping problem. I recommend everybody to try this. Truly effective method.

Ay man question 1 was deep! I feel like that can be a whole motivational speech "if they aren't READY to ride a bike NOTHING will work" that applies to a lot of things in life .......

Clickbait. I followed this method and my kid rode the bike in 6 minutes.

Ok...I was skeptical! It took my son, who was very afraid of riding his bike without training wheels, one hour to ride alone, without me having to balance him! Just try this out, it really works!!!

Worked like a charm!! My 5 year boy got the hang of it in few minuets. He needed some help to start every time he stopped, but after half an hour he managed that too.

I don’t care what others saying so negative. My 6 yr old has been struggling to get off one training wheel. We both watched this and after watching not even the full video he was on his way. Yes he still needed a push few times but today was day 1. He got the inspiration and confidence from this guy’s video. I had been struggling to get him to balance. Till I thought why not try to search you tube for some training vidoe or tricks. This video was first and last I had to watch. Thank you bro for helping us get rid of training wheels. Now I will need help with scooter and stake board for him after he is pro with the bike.

Thank you so much for this video! Pay no mind to all the naysayers... I've been trying the usual methods for my 7 year old daughter and it was constantly ending in tears. It did take us 10 minutes rather than 5, but she got it and is so proud and has been joyfully biking every day since! THANK YOU!!! My 5 year old still hasn't quite got it yet but she's close, so it's not magic but it's WAY better than any alternatives I had.

Wow! Great video. My nine year old niece went from crying her eyes out because after an hour of trying to ride her new bike she couldn’t. After watching about three minutes of this video I took his tips and apply them to my niece within minutes she was riding her new bike!

So the trick is to find a kid that knows how to ride a bike and have him ride a bike?

I am blown away 😳 My first son started riding a bike like a duck in water, my 2nd son had a brand new bike sitting in the garage for 2 years and wouldn't touch it out of fear. Tried these steps and he was off to the races in 10 minutes! THANK YOU!

“I think they make cars without steering wheels” 😂😂

I watched this video with my 7 year old son and then we went out and tried it. He was cycling around the block in minutes. I think it helps to let the kid watch the video. Cheers👍

Also another thing. I saw a lady make a KZfaq tutorial about riding bikes it was 30 mins long and confusing asf. This is an amazing video sir, I salute.

Thank you so much for making this video, I used the technique and my son was riding in 5 minutes after a year of struggling. Product description was 100% accurate!

Im sold. You had me at no helmet

15 years old and still a failiure

well, this freaking worked in literally less than 5 minutes. We have been frustrated with trying so many methods. Thank you!

My son has struggled for a couple summers - we struggled together actually. Within minutes after watching this video he was riding his bike and having the best time. Thank you!!!

The boy already knows how to ride a bicycle

Fake, The bike was a paid actor

Dude 7 years later and this method worked on my kid. Bought him a bike on Wednesday fully riding by Saturday..Never had training wheels.. Thank You!!!

This actually worked! My girls were getting frustrated so we looked up videos for tips. Once they watched this it was literally a couple of tries and they were headed off down the trail! Thank you!

Watched this video with my husband and my 10yo then went to the park. We got to step 1 and she took off , needed no support, rode like shes been doing it for years! This method WORKS! Readiness and confidence! Thanks much!!

I taught both of my kids to ride their bikes last night using THIS method! I was skeptical but it definitely worked.. and I'd say in 5 minutes or less with each of them. Awesome!

Thank you for this video! I did this method exactly with my daughter and she is now riding a bike in a short time when I thought it would take a few weeks!

I have been an avid cyclist all of my life... we struggled to teach my kid how to rid a bicycle. Let me say I watched this video, went out with my kid and in 10 minutes he was riding. The key is he wanted to ride! he was dying to ride at this point and he did it in 10 minutes using this method! THANK YOU!!

It did work. Okay not less than five minutes. Maybe 7 minutes. My six year old has been riding on training wheels for a year and a half. Have tried to take them off a few times with no luck. Saw this video. Took the training wheels off. Asked my son if he was ready. He said he was. Set the timer on my phone for five minutes. Did the leaning. Did the free drops. Took time to talk about what was happening with leaning and the weight of the bike and what balancing felt like. Then after 5 minutes I gave him a try. A couple false starts where he wobbled for ten feet and out his feet down. Talked about how he needed to get up to speed and keep peddling. He took off the third time. Boom! He rode all afternoon. Grinning ear to ear! Yes, he fell a couple times. He dusted himself off and went back at it. He was so happy and excited nothing would stop him from riding. Not like he didn’t have the issues all new riders have. He ran into a post. He ran into a bush. He ran into a tree. More times than that he was riding and doing well. What I am saying is yes, there were mistakes in his first afternoon riding. Minor issues though. He felt so successful. So yes, in about 7 minutes this method worked.

Yes, it worked, I was blown away. Tried the technique on my son, and it took less than 5 minutes. I don't normally leave comments, but had to in this case as I was amazed at how effective this was.

I think the kid already knows how to ride a bike

Watched this video with my daughter. We went out to the driveway and it took about 5 minutes for her to start riding the bike herself. Now she is riding and turning and really enjoying riding her bike. This video is awesome!!! Thank you!!!

This totally makes sense (in an educational psychology way). Teach them how to catch themselves and they won't worry about falling. And that's the entire reason kids get scared of riding. Brilliantly simple, really.

Thank you so much! We were going nowhere with my 7yo son, and then out of the blue, we learned how to ride the bike today after watching your video, and also about 5 min of figuring out how balancing feels. And absolutely no injuries or scrapes! I prayed for a miracle and we found your video. God bless

It works like magic.!!! I was almost frustrated and contemplating returning my son's bike for a training wheel bike, last minute, I saw this video, and my son started riding in less than 5 minutes... thanks so much..

Thank you for your advice... it worked less than 10 minutes. Thanks again for saving us all alot of stress

This man is absolutely correct. We'd been trying to teach our grandson to ride a bike for over 6 months with very little progress. I watched this video at the park and immediately tried it and within less than 5 minutes he was riding. He's 7 and athletic with good balance, but still couldn't get the hang of it - this worked immediately. He was sooooo excited and proud of himself and after 10 minutes he was doing a fabulous job. That was a month ago and he's now a pro, riding standing up, turning easily, braking with no difficulty, etc. I recommend heartily! BTW, he is not arrogant at all Daniel W. - what are you talking about!!!!!!

I'll defend this guy. This method actually worked with my 4 year old daughter. I was sceptical but it was worth tó try. And trust me She didn't know how tó ride a bike.

Thank you so much for this video! I literally taught my son how to ride his bike without training wheels after watching your video.

now lets see the master trainer do a video with someone who actually doesnt know how to ride 🤣🤣

Mate, greetings from Australia. I had tried everything with my son and today I tried your method and it worked, just like you said too, in five minutes. Amazing.

thank you my boi luke can ride a bike now

Honestly i was having a similar problem, so i kind of mixed the old with the new. New: i practiced the stationary balancing for about 20 minutes. Then the old: (this is how i learned) i had him start to peddle as i gave him a good push in the center of his back. He was honestly riding for 40-50 feet in minutes. By the next day, i could just sit back and watch him ride. During his 40-50 feet rides, he could have kept going but he would get SO EXCITED he would stop pedaling and say "WOW did you see that dad, i was riding my bike"!! After several of those exciting moments for him i was about to talk him into not stopping and riding. Now we take family rides all the time. Dad life... there is NOTHING better!

I tried this with my son who was struggling to move off of training wheels and This method did work. He was able to ride by himself and look no different from the kid in the video on his first attempt after doing the leaning part. He quickly picked up turning and starting off by himself. I have a bad back so running next to my son and trying to balance him was painful and not productive. Thanks for posting this method of teaching.

Don't encourage a child to get on a bike without a helmet. All the bike has to do is tip over and the child not able to get their foot out fast enough and they smash the side of their head. That is enough to cause a serious brain injury. It's not worth it. Yes we rode all our lives without helmets, but it is only prudent to encourage children to ride with a helmet ALWAYS.

It worked for my 6 year old. Thanks a million!!!

I cannot believe this! thank you so much because I've been struggling for months to get my children to ride who are in kindergarten and first grade and just in 20 minutes they are improving so much and can ride on their own! They get it in their minds because they're over the fear of falling and know what to do so now they can just focus on peddling. Thank you!

This just worked! Believe me, this method REALLY works! My 7yo daughter is so happy!!
