Strider Running Bike
This amazing bike will change your child's biking experience forever!
Take the frustration out of learning to ride a bike by starting your child off on a Strider Running Bike. This revolutionary toddler bike, known as a balance bike or running bike teaches your child the skills they need to learn to ride a real pedal bike - all while having fun and building their confidence.
This Strider Running bike is exceptional for it's small size, slim-line frame, and lightest of all the balance bikes. This allows kids as young as 18 months to be able to jump on and start riding. Because the seat range can go from 11 inches to 18.5 inches (will the seat extender) this bike will last as long as your child needs to transition to a pedal bike - up to about 5 yrs old.
