Strider 12 Custom Balance Bike

Industry-leading training bikes that help children as young as 18 months learn the fundamentals of balancing, leaning and steering, without the distractions and complications of pedals or training wheels! Strider’s simple, no-pedal design builds confidence and eliminates fear by allowing kids to have their feet on the ground and progress at their own pace. This unique design teaches young children to balance on two wheels right from the start, avoiding developmental delays typical with tricycles and training-wheel bikes. Genuine Strider Balance Bikes are sometimes referred to as pushbikes, scoot bikes, run bikes or running bikes. The US Patented Strider Balance Bikes are the lightest Balance Bikes in their category (6.7 lbs.); have the lowest seat height (for the youngest starting age), and are tested to the most stringent safety standards (age 18+ months vs. the less stringent 36+ months). Frame-integrated footrests, proprietary toddler-sized components and the ability to easily adjust to a growing child, make the Strider the only bike your child needs to develop their riding skills and successfully transfer onto their first pedal bike or dirt bike WITHOUT training wheels. Exclusive rear brake mount allows the option of a foot-operated brake once the kids are proficiently gliding with feet on the footrests. Brakes sold separately.
