Jacob
EZ Transitional Training Wheels

Inventor: Jacob
Invented at age: 5

He had a problem: Jacob was facing the very scary idea of having his training wheels removed from his bicycle. He was nervous about the abrupt transition from riding a bike with four stable wheels to having to ride unsteadily on two.

He had an idea: It occurred to him that there must be an easier and less scary way to make this change. He came up with EZ Transitional Training Wheels which allow a bike rider to easily transition from the full safety of training wheels to having no training wheels at all by different settings that make the wheels closer and closer to the bike allowing the rider to work on their balance and confidence.
