What Do You Get When You Cross a Scooter, Skateboard and a Bike? @SbykeUSA

by

Mom Always Finds Out received the Sbyke P20 for our Sbyke Scooter Review. All opinions expressed are my own. #Sbyke

What do you get when you cross a scooter, skateboard and a bike? Read on and I’ll tell you all about it!

Sbyke p20 Review

I was reading a recent issue of FamilyFun magazine when this photo of a cool scooter/skateboard/bike thing caught my eye. I did not know what I was looking at – all I knew was that it looked really awesome! A quick caption search told me that this was the Sbyke P20. Now that I knew what it was called, I knew that I HAD to get one for my bike-riding, scooter-loving son.

The Sbyke is a cool scooter-skateboard-bike hybrid that was recently honored with FamilyFun’s 2013 Boredom Buster Award!

sbyke review

The people at Sbyke were generously willing to let me review (and giveaway!) an Sbyke here at Mom Always Finds Out. We don’t have a skate park nearby, but my son loves to try new tricks on an Sbyke out on our neighborhood streets and sidewalks. He’s working on learning to jump it. The Sbyke is also perfect for riding the paved trails in our community.

The Sbyke isn’t just for kids – it holds adults up to 220 pounds. That was good news for my husband because he has been spotted riding the Sbyke around our neighborhood now, too. I have even gone for a few spins and think the Sbyke is really fun. I personally like riding the Sbyke better than scooters. I have a lot more control and it’s easier for me to balance on an Sbyke than a scooter. The Sbyke is really responsive to the way you are leaning so it is easy to steer.

Direct quote from my son, Logan: The Sbyke is way better than my bike AND my scooter. (If you knew how much he loves riding his bike and his scooter – you’d know that this statement really means a lot!) Logan also says his favorite thing about the Sbyke is how he can do sharp turns on it. 

We shot a quick video of Logan (9 going on 10 years old) learning to ride the Sbyke.

I’m all about keeping my kids active and moving outside. The Sbyke is so cool that every kid in the neighborhood wants a turn on ours. And we get asked, “Where did you GET THAT?” I tell them they can get their own Sbyke at Sbyke.com. I have a feeling these are going to be hot holiday gift ideas for kids.

Every Sbyke comes with a short and a long stem so you can adjust the height as your child grows. We put the shorter stem on ours so it would fit Logan. And just in case you were wondering, the assembly was simple and took less than 15 minutes. The directions and tools you need come in the box, along with cool logo stickers in boy and girl colors. Just be sure to have a bike tire pump handy because you will need to inflate the tire before you can ride your Sbyke for the first time.

I really like one of the official Sbyke videos by Sbyke inventor Brad Wernli. I watched it before we got our Sbyke and it explains all the ways you can experience the Sbyke whether you are 6 years old or 60! It’s sure to get you really excited about your first Sbyke ride. Take a look:

    I know I am a little late to this post, but I just wanted to add how cool this scooter looks. I agree with Sherrie C, this thing looks fun even to us “older kids”

  4. Sherrie C. says

    Your son looks like he’s having so much fun playing with the Sbyke! My two son’s are grown but I don’t think that would stop them from trying it out, especially since it holds up to 220 pounds. But if I got one it would be for my granddaughters 🙂

  5. Richard Hicks says

    This is so neat, Kids would love it no doubt. Anything that gets them moving is good in my book

  7. Leslie Brown says

    Loved the videos. Always nice to see a product in action and the videos really helped demonstrate the Sbyke’s maneuverability. So much cooler than just riding a bike or a regular scooter and I think the kids would get a lot of exercise on one.

  10. Sherry Compton says

    Interesting idea. Kids love all of these things…why not put them together. A unique concept that I can see my grandkids enjoying.

  12. Samantha G. says

    This looks a lot safer than a skateboard and a scooter. Pretty cool looking! My daughter would absolutely love it if this was under the tree on Christmas.

  13. Jill Myrick says

    The Sbyke is so unique ! I can see my family having a blast with this. Especially my older sons.

  14. Bobbie Foust says

    Crazy looking thing, the kids will love. I wonder how the extremest will do tricks on it

  16. YVETTE NEWMAN says

    This looks a lot safer then the regular skateboards.
    As a mom we want or kids to have fun but be safe doing it.

  17. carol roberts clark says

    that is so awesome looking i know if my son had this he would be at the shop all the time doing tricks

  19. Jennifer H says

    This definitely looks awesome! My youngest son is completely into biking and skateboarding and anything else that he can use as an excuse to spend some time in a cast lol. He would love to find this under our Christmas tree!

  23. JJ Caraway says

    This is the first time I have ever seen or heard of this before. My granddaughter would have a blast on this.It really is cool!

  29. Amanda G. Williams says

    I love this! All five of our kiddos would have a blast with it (if the hubby doesn’t steal it). Kids are always looking for what’s new and different and this definitely fits in that category! Thank you for the review!

  30. Adin Blankenship says

    OMG! I mean, this is the most awesom-est (if that is even a word) scooter bike combo I have ever seen.. well, I have never seen one before. LOL! Thanks for sharing and for hosting the giveaway. I would love to win it for my boy. I love how it looks easy for kids to maneuver and that wide floor board so kids’ feet can really get on the board. And I like that it uses a handbreak so it is easy for kids to put the breaks on. Awesome!

  31. Crystal Green says

    My son is dying to have a scooter, but we really don’t have the place to ride one except on the road when we do our bike rides as a family. I think this would be a great combination of a scooter and bike for him. I love this idea a lot! Thanks for telling us about this.

  32. Stephanie F. says

    I like that the Sbyke is so sturdy that adults can use it no problem. Easy assembly, innovative and smart—this should do well at the holidays!

  33. laurie nykaza says

    I loved to ride a skateboard as a child this looks like so much fun to do and great exercise for kids too

  34. Katt Lewis says

    I’d like to see an adult on this. It looks fun for kids, I’m sure my grandkids would have a great time with it. And since this is the first I’ve heard of it I’m sure it would be a great way for the kids to make new friends in their new neighborhood.

  35. Stephanie Shipley says

    The Sbyke looks so awesome! My family, especially my son, would just love to have one! My son’s two favorite activities are riding his bike and scooter. He would be blown away to see both items in one. I love how much more control the bike wheel on this gives you than just a traditional scooter.

  36. Crystal Rogers Walker says

    I like the fact that you can adjust the hight and that it holds up to 220 pounds, I would love this I have a disability from polio I am very limited to where I can go, no Six Flags, no Opryland because I cannot walk it but with the Sbyke P20 , I could go places again

  37. Kelly Amos says

    I absolutely love that this sbyke can be used by the entire family depending on the size you choose. The size options are great for those with little ones as well as older kids.

  38. Carrie Phelps says

    My six year old, going on sixteen year old, grandson would be beyond happy to find this under the Christmas tree. Great review, I’m sold!

  39. melissa teears says

    I like that the height can adjust for when my son grows. My son would love it! Perfect!

  40. melissa teears says

    I like the fact that I can raise the height as my son grows. My sin would love it. Perfect!!

  41. Lisa R says

    probably my son if he was a bit younger, he would have loved this about 5 years ago for sure, heck he might like it now at 22, who knows, he was into skateboarding, biking and snowboarding…I know for sure my nephew would love this

  42. Janet W. says

    I’ve never seen anything like this! How unique! Honestly, I cannot stand skateboards because they make me a nervous wreck and I’d hate to see my grandsons get hurt on one. But this looks much safer and like so much fun!

  43. Dorothy Teel says

    I have a couple of teenage grandsons who would love to have one of these, it looks like fun and the bike tire helps it work on all terrain and not just paved areas, I think that this is cool and thank you for reviewing this.

  44. Faye Mc says

    I love the idea of using it myself to stroll around our trails and let LO enjoy it the rest of the time and be a bit more aggressive. Thanks for the review.

  46. Lilia Kharabora says

    The coolest thing I have seen in a while. Big or small. Love it. Can’t wait to win it and try it 😉

  47. Ms Gretchen Ann Luper says

    my 3 grandsons love scooters. they would think this is the most awsome one yet.

  48. Rebecca DeCamp Bryant says

    Oh wow!! This is super cool. I have about five grandkids that would love to have this. Thanks for the review on this product. You did a super job. Very informative information and the videos were an added plus. Your son is too cute. (my granddaughter said that lol)

  57. Sarah L says

    I went:HUH? What’s that? Never seen one before. Looks like lots of fun. Glad to see he was wearing a helmet.

  61. Dawn Lopez says

    Wow.. just wow. That is SO neato! My son would honestly go nuts over this, I think this will need to be added to my holiday shopping list. I’d actually love taking this for a spin too!

  69. Camille says

    Those are so cool! My kids would get a kick out of them, I’m sure. I had a bike growing up now my kids have bikes, scooters, and all different hybrids. 🙂
