Nice Starter Bike!

Our 2 year old grandson liked it right away. It was easy to assemble.

Caveman-level Disappointment

2/5. The 2 points are because it has two wheels. No pedals, no electric motor, no foot pegs. NO FOOT PEGS. Why would a person spend $130 on a pro-waddle machine, risking an injury due to the lack of FOOT PEGS. OR BRAKES. Kids will go down on a bicycle, or on this doohickey. At least on a bike you have the opportunity to pedal faster, SLOW DOWN, and rest your feet. By the way, at a similar or cheaper price point. I'm shocked that this caveman-era invention is being looked at by any parent with remotely good intentions for their child. I spend every night praying that the general public has an average IQ that would be high enough to prevent the purchase of such a product - and every day I am disappointed.

3 Year Old Loves It

My daughter just started using this bike and she's quickly getting the hang of it. Handle bars and seat are pretty easy to adjust for height. Happy with this purchase.

Strider Sport Bike

Great bike for kids to learn how to ride and balance themselves!

Worth Every Penny

I bought Strider bikes when my twin children were 2. (I originally got them a bike with training wheels to share because it is impossible for me to help 2 little kids on their bikes at the same time so someone wouldn't fall off the bike). Striders were our best options. They are very lightweight and our twin toddlers can ride independently. They used it every summer and by the third summer (age 4.5), they were able to ride a bike without training wheels. It only took them a few minutes and they took off! We were extremely satisfied with the quality of Striders (3 summers of extensive use) and the fact that Striders helped our kids learn how to bike.

Great Product!

Both my children learned balance from a Strider Bike! It's a great platform to make the transition to pedal bike without the hassle and confusion of training wheels Its a great product that is very well built, with easy adjustments for the handlebars and seat to fit various heights of children. Provides hours of entertainment for the children, and the greatest part is, it gets them outside doing physical activity away from the TV's and Ipads.
