There is no limit to where these bikes can go! It was the smaller bike with 3 wheels that my kid started on The tires are made of a very hard rubber that is not permeable A slip, not Injury to the limbs & puncture The man went everywhere he wanted to The house is made of rocks, dirt, concrete, and cement. Throughout his life, he never had any issues. Using the three wheel bike was fun because the wheels could be tightened just like you would if you were skating You would make them more snug if you wanted them to go slower Unless you object to your child going faster, then you can just loosen Despite their resilience, these things tend to break. He rode for so many hours & he came up with a brilliant design I still think it looks like new & fresh So far, we haven't encountered any issues. Having moved him up to this particular bike and helmet, I will now fix his bike and helmet. The tires in level 1 are a bit different from the ones in level 3. The tires from the stage 1 are better for me, because they're non-marking The slip occurred. It is true that these tires are hard, but they wear down just like any other bike tire. It was not possible to wear stage 1 flat, since they were already flat in the first place A better rubber material would be better. In my son's case, the tire has gone flat in the center of the wheel, so he can no longer ride in the house. His bike makes some noise when he slides, and he can no longer ride in the garage. A good design was made with the grooves and the wheel to mimic a real tire and make the tire feel like it's on ice Exactly like that. keep in mind that tires will wear down over time, and there will be an eventual need to replace them. On some surfaces, it may not be as effective. There is no slowed down in my son's progress. The only problem I have is that I cannot locate replacement tires for this bike. The company claims that they don't have any in stock. At the end of the day, these bikes are wonderful! You will be able to use the wheels more like a traditional bicycle wheel as you advance. These shoes are said to be puncture-proof and able to withstand punishment I so far haven't had any problems with it. This is a highly recommended book. Young is the best time to give it to them! It's going to be a big hit and they will love it It is amazing how much control you have. I am enjoying buying this for my son and I think it is the best buy I have made A little over three and a half years old. A couple of weeks after he started balancing with his feet up, he was walking without his head down. We had a lot of luck, and I hope you do too.
There is nothing discreet about the packaging. The Strider box has a label with images of the bike, but if the "this is a gift" option is chosen during checkout, the Strider box will be nested inside another plain brown box.
There is a simple screw to loosen on this bike to adjust the seat. You will need an adjustable wrench.

Added an edit Because we don't live in a flat area, this bike has no brakes at all. I am finding it increasingly difficult to maneuver. You should be cautious if you live in a place that isn't perfectly flat The bike can build up a great deal of speed that your child might not be able to cope with.
We bought it for our two-year-old The year is An old one. It is something he loves to learn, and he has a wonderful time doing so. All things considered, it's not the case. The last few times he's taken it, he's been inclined to stop immediately after a couple of In comparison, this kid rode his previous, smaller bike for miles at a time. I was baffled until I examined more carefully the bike. The support bar next to the back wheel has strips of sandpaper, I guess for kids to put their feet up without They had been rubbing against the calves of my toddler with these pieces of sandpaper. He had scratches on his thighs, as I noticed when I looked closer. That explains why kiddo didn't want to ride for a long time! The sandpaper is covered for now with tape, but there is a glaring design flaw here. Once I figured it out after a couple of rides I really appreciate it. I wouldn't call it a two-way street The year is It is easy to understand what is wrong when you are old. The bike appears to be sturdy and I am sure we'll use it for many years to come. However, tape the sandpaper to prevent dust from collecting. Even better would be for the manufacturer to find another way to put something non-standard That's an easy slip.
The last three kids we have had have all been on Striders! As far as I'm concerned there is no other option! The brand matters from an experience point of view! I ordered a wooden version and the seat did not adjust as well. It was also too high for a very long time! I did not find it to be as easy to move as these. In our household, three kids have learned to ride peddle bikes without training wheels before they are 3. Peddling without training wheels is an exciting sight for people when they see my kids! For all the people that I have steered in the right direction to purchase one of these bikes, I ought to get paid! The only other way to educate your child is to do it this way! It takes most kids until they are five or older to ride without training wheels. Having said that, I feel at that point they cannot learn from this method as the bikes, although they are adjusted, are built small enough for them to fit on. The first lesson they have ever learned has been a piece of cake for them when they get they for their 2nd birthday!.
The stroller was purchased for my son when he was 18 months old, but he did not fit on it. He was unable to reach the handles from a seated position even at the smallest setting. The tallest I remember him being was 33 inches. Now that he is 2 years old, he stands almost 36" tall and is barely able to The dinosaur arms I see on him don't seem to belong to him. The kid is pretty average in size. The wheelchair is still a favorite of his, but he no longer is willing to sit on it whilst he walks around with I guess that just means he'll be able to use it for a longer time? I am, of course, looking forward to the day when he will be able to glide effortlessly. Nonetheless, it is very easy to assemble, the construction is sturdy and I am sure it will last for.
You should get a balance bike like this! Reviewers pointed out the importance of tires across all The tires do look like they are made of harder foam. It was a genuine concern of mine. The chance was taken, but it worked out. Compared to that, the other is about the same. This is what I think of as "banana. ". Tire reviews were poor because the tires had hard shiny plastic treads. On grass and gravel, the surface is slick. There was an odd angle on the handle bars. On the Strider bike, these tires look great, and the handle bars seem to be in great shape as well. Our 18 month old is not at the tall end of the spectrum, so it was the perfect height for her. Glad we got this bike! We like it a lot! There's a roar in the air!.
They are the best way to learn! Getting my daughter to transition from training wheels to two wheels was a big challenge for her. We've been trying for months and crashing every time. When one of her friends dads dropped off their strider one day, she was delighted. She was riding great after switching from her 4 wheeler to her 2 wheeler within 2 days! The same strider bike was passed on to about a dozen of their friends and they learned to ride in a few days to two If you have a group of friends, share one with each of them. These are pretty expensive for something you won't use very long. It makes no sense to keep them on it after they have mastered riding.
For my son, who is almost three years old, I purchased this bike. It is great to see him outside on his balance bike since his older brother has difficulties riding the two wheel bike. He loves it. I was worried the lack of pedals would cause him to lose interest, but he can push himself and glide where he wants The bike has been with us for two weeks now, and he won't get off. I expect we will need to purchase the larger seat accessory in the near future, but the box says it goes up to age 5, so I expect him to use this for quite some time. It is solidly constructed, and the wheels are made from a solid plastic/rubber instead of tubes. He is able to control it very well because it has a very low center of gravity. It's a good choice for the age range before your kid moves up to a bigger bike if your child loves rolling around on things and being outdoors.
Having heard all the great benefits that the Strider bike provides for balance and easing the transition to a standard bike, we decided to buy it for my son for his first birthday. I am writing this review a full year later - still love it. This is due to the fact that he just now began using As I fully expect the benefits to materialize, this will prove to be an excellent product. The more he loves it, the more he wants it You may want to wait until your child is ready to buy this if you want to avoid getting ripped off. According to Strider, 18 months is the recommended time frame. It seemed like we would be able to get away with it after Despite our best efforts, we were not able to do it.
Whatever we do, there is no escape from the tightness of the handlebars. Our wait to return this bike was too long, but we just wanted to warn you that there is a possibility it will happen I have seen some that are exactly as they should be.
