Strider Balance Bikes

Strider has the whole teaching a kid to ride on two wheels process figured out, based on a line of balance bikes. It starts with an easy-to-install $109.99 rocker kit for a $139.99 Strider 12 Sport, suitable for kids from age 18-months who aren’t ready to balance (a Strider Sport 2-in-1 Rocking Bike kit includes both the bike and rocker kit for $249.98). When a kid is ready to balance, the rocker kit is easy to remove.

And once a kid masters a 12-inch-wheel model, there’s a $219.99 14-inch-wheel-model that can transform from being a balance bike to being a pedal bike using an easy-to-install $69 conversion kit.

The company also sells a line of accessories ranging from a snow-ski conversion kit to assorted elbow and knee pads, open-face and closed-faced helmets, colored grips, and lights. Available from dealers (including some OEM motorcycle dealers with matching-brand Striders like Honda, KTM, Suzuki and others), or from www.striderbikes.com.

Strider Bikes is also the driving force behind All Kids Bike, which is a national movement led by the Strider Education Foundation to place Kindergarten Physical Education (PE) Learn-To-Ride programs into public schools (at no cost to the schools) by using donations from individuals, businesses, and organizations.
