PHOENIX -- When it comes to learning how to ride a bike, many kids have relied on training wheels.

Daniella Reichstetter of Gyrobike says there's a better, easier way. It's called the Gyrowheel and it's designed to keep the bike stable, balancing it upright while your child learns to ride.

According to Reichstetter, the Gyrowheel allows children to learn proper riding technique while training wheels can inadvertently encourage some bad habits, including putting their feet down when the bike starts to tip and looking down instead of where they're going.

With the help of Emory, 8, Reichstetter, showed Scott Pasmore how the Gyrowheel works.
