When kids start to learn how to ride a bike, many adults purchase them a tricycle, a toddler bike, or a bicycle with training wheels. Did you know there was another option? There is! Strider PREbike balance bikes are great for learning the balance and coordination that are needed for when you start riding that first “big kid” bike.

These bikes have no pedals but are in essence scooters that you sit on. This will develop the muscles, the muscle memory, and the stability that are all required for riding a real bicycle with no need for a third wheel or a set of training wheels.

These great bikes are perfect for kids 1-5 up to fifty pounds. Imagine a bike that can grow with a kid for 5 years! A tricycle might be grown out of in mere months while this bike will stick around long after. It’s a super light weight bike coming in at only seven pounds. That’s only about a third of the weight of regular bicycles of comparable size.

Watch your child scoot around with this bike and learn how to balance themselves, stop, and turn on their own time and with far less spills than traditional bikes. These are perfect for those little ones just starting out.
