Healthy kids develop essential motor skills early
in life. Pediatricians agree that learning balance, coordination with
exercise jump-starts a childs growth and development. The STRIDER teaches your child balance, coordination and develops glittering confidence. Trikes
and bikes with training wheels dont. Traditional bicycles place too
much of the focus on learning to pedal -- skimping on developing your
childs motor skills. And tricycles are heavy, clunky and difficult
for kids to control.
Bike riding becomes a breeze when you teach your child balance and coordination before pedaling. The
STRIDER takes pedaling out of the mix so that kids can concentrate
solely on learning balance, which takes more practice. Pedaling is a
secondary skill that kids can easily learn within a few short minutes. Our first test rider -- after riding a STRIDER prototype for only six months -- was riding a two-wheel pedal bike without training wheels at age three. (Still, for pure, simple fun, he continually reverts to and spends much of his playtime on his STRIDER.)
Many parents tell us that the STRIDER has given their child a safe,
speedy and smooth transition into a pedal bike. And your child can
share this same experience too.
Give your child a head start with a STRIDER. Provide pure fun, right out of the box.If your child can walk... your child can ride a STRIDER. Even
tiny little children, before the age of two, are drawn to the
STRIDER. At first, kids will grab the handle bars, straddle the bike
and walk without ever sitting down on the seat. And theyre completely
stable: Two wheels, front and back. Feet firmly on the
ground. Hands bracing the handle bars.

The next step: Kids quickly learn to sit down,
push with their feet and zip right along as they balance on two wheels.
(Watch children ride and play with their STRIDER.) Plastic push toys, scooters, tricycles and training wheels cant do this. And unlike
other bikes that sit in the garage, gathering dust while your child
waits to grow into them, the STRIDER Balance Bike will get plenty of
use from day one. In fact, we guarantee that your child will love the STRIDER. Heres
an added benefit for parents: Your child will become significantly
more mobile. The STRIDER opens up a whole world for your child to
ride on. Take your childs STRIDER to an outdoor gathering, a nearby
park, or anywhere else you walk. With a STRIDER, theres no more
dawdling little ones. Your child will easily be able to keep pace.
We like things that make life easy and simple. You do too. That's why
you'll be happy to learn that the Strider's assembly is a breeze.
Give your child a safer way to learn bike riding.

Tricycles tip over, scrape ankles, and are
difficult to pedal. Bicycles with training wheels are tall, heavy,
unstable and downright scary for young riders. Both have the potential
to cause painful injuries and fear. Not true with the Strider.
The STRIDER Balance Bike is free from any cables, chains, sprockets, pedals or protrusions that can harm your child. And
the STRIDER is steady, stable and safe. At the first feeling of
instability, your child will instinctively place both feet securely on
the ground. So there are no "tricycle tip-overs" or "training-wheel
wobbles" that stir-up a fear, hesitancy, or dislike of bike riding. The
STRIDERs lightweight design and low center of gravity make it easy
to maneuver and control, giving your child a safe and secure
feeling. And the bikes adjustable seat height starts at 11 inches from
the ground, accommodating the shortest of legs. Control
is further enhanced with a low and flat handlebar design. Kids can
now reach forward rather than up, which gives them better leverage and
maneuverability. And as the your child becomes more confident, the
Striders integrated foot rests provide a place for both feet while
coasting along. The bottom line: The STRIDER Balance Bike gives your child a safer and smarter bike riding experience.
Eliminate costly repairs and delays with a durable, low-maintenance design.The
STRIDERs straightforward design means there are no delays when
"hitting the road". No pedals to tighten. No chains to lube. No tire
pressure to maintain. The STRIDER is outfitted
with puncture-proof, EVA polymer tires. These tires eliminate flats
and are approximately half the weight of an inflatable tire. (A
lighter bike equals greater control.) Assembly
takes approximately five minutes for even the most
mechanically-challenged among us. Thats right. Just insert, adjust
and tighten the seat, wheels and handle bars, and your child will be
zipping along on the Strider! Get a bigger bang for your buck.The STRIDER Balance Bike is the one and only bike
your child needs until making the transition to a two-wheel pedal
bike without training wheels. No more expensive guess-work and
experimentation with plastic push toys, scooters, tricycles or training
wheels.

Designed for children, ages 1 - 5, the
STRIDER Balance Bike is lightweight and features an adjustable seat
and handlebars to accommodate your growing child. And we also offer
an optional seat with a longer post for taller children. And
get this: Even after the transition into a two-wheel pedal bike, you
still might find your child spending much of his playtime on a STRIDER
