CHOOSING THE BEST BIKE
Unsure of which bike is right for your little rider? Let us help!

Strider is the original kids balance bike. Choose the 12 Sport, 12 Pro or 12 Classic for first riders, or the 14x Convertible, which starts as a balance bike and converts to a pedal bike. See the differences side by side in our Strider comparison chart.
Strider Balance Bikes are the original and best known balance bike, designed as the result of 10+ years of development, manufacturing improvements, riding, observation, testing, and even racing. The patented design of the Strider is lightweight and allows for a very low minimum seat height. Strider 12" and 14" balance bikes are designed for the youngest kids to learn to ride. Many parents even experience their children riding as soon as they can walk! Strider also designed their 20" balance bike to help older kids, adults, and those with special needs learn how to ride.
Lightweight and affordably priced, the Strider design strikes an ideal balance between wheelbase, stand-over height, center-of-gravity, footrest position, handlebar position, seat position, front-to-rear weight bias, and steering geometry. The resulting bike is safe and easy to learn on, completely intuitive, and naturally comfortable to ride.
