Really well made and easy to assemble.

As described on site. Well built - sturdy. Good paint. Teaches balance while providing endless fun. Pedal kit is a nice opinion that teaches balance and keeps the rising fun going.

My 3 year old grandson loves his new Stride bike .. It was a great choice because we will eventually put on training wheels. The height is perfect for him and made well …

Have to admit didn't like the cost but it was the color that my grandson wanted. This is a great brand but a little overpriced and now I'm having trouble finding the pedals for it

We first got a strider for my son before he turned 2, I figured it was better than trying to go the pedal route, and it was. He learned to ride it inside, and then took the streets and sidewalks. He loved it, he outgrew it and it was time to get him a bigger one, and he hasn’t missed a beat. It works wander for balancing, and no training wheels or pedals needed.

My daughter is 3 and absolutely loves her strider bike. They are easy and quick for kids to learn. The adjustable handle bars and seat make it quick and easy to adjust as they grow.

Wir haben dieses Laufrad unseren Sohn zum dritten Geburtstag geschenkt. Wir wollten gerne ein Laufrad welches sich zum Fahrrad umbauen lässt. Unser Sohn ist bereits über 1 m und es passt gerade so. Also viel kleiner dürfte das Kind nicht sein.Der Lenker geht etwas schwerfällig, dass lässt sich aber mit etwas Öl selber beheben.Leider ist kein Ständer am Rad. Die Muttern an den Rädern sind schwarz lackiert und da das Rad häufiger abgelegt wird und auf den Muttern liegt, geht der Lack auch entsprechend schnell ab.Die Lackierung in orange finde ich gut, weil das Rad schnell gesehen wird. Auch ist die Verarbeitung sehr gut. Ich würde es wiederkaufen.

Excelente bici, la calidad de la marca es muy buena, mi hijo paso de la más chiquita a este tamaño sin problema alguno a pesar de ser mas pesada. Próximamente le agregaremos los pedales. El vendedor con una muy muy buena atención, los recomiendo ampliamente, tuvimos un detalle con la fecha de entrega por las fechas navideñas con estafeta pero el vendedor me ayudó a solucionar y que llegara en fecha, lo cual les agradezco muchísimo ya que era de santa el regalo.

The media could not be loaded.

Heavy bike, but okay for our larger 3 year old. He complained about the seat cushion, so we bought a gel pad, but just like for an adult, riding frequently is the key to avoiding a sore bum. We also bought the pedal kit. Pretty soon (he didn’t care to ride it as much as expected) his balance was great and we decided at age 4 he was ready to try pedals. They were difficult to rotate, which led to some major frustration, but after just a few days of trying (and adjusting the chain), he was successful at riding a bike having never used training wheels. He was proud!We quickly noticed, though, that he needed another bike in order to keep up with other kids who had common 16” non-balance bikes. We had hoped we could use the 14x balance bike with pedals for a longer time (he used it 3 months) before needing another bike, but found that while the 14x is great for learning to balance and pedal, it isn’t a long term use bike—not as long as we wanted anyway. It’s heavy and more rigid in its movement. Our near 4.5 year old son is now enjoying a 16” common pedal bike. It only took a couple tries to be confident and no training wheels were used.Overall we’re glad we bought this; he was very successful in learning to ride. The 14x bike with pedals was used for just over two years (age 3-4) for one kid.

Muy fácil de armar una vez que la recibes, práctica para transportar y cargar en caso de que el niño se canse de usarla

My daughter loves this bike. She's 3 years and 3 months old and 36.6" tall and she learned to pedal this bike in a day. It didn't all happen in a day, she's been practicing on other bikes (read on for more), but she's super happy and proud of herself to put it all together and start riding a real bike with pedals. This review is a personal account of lessons learned getting here. We started off with the Strider 12 balance bike (to learn to balance!), then added a Diamondback Lil Impressions 12" pedal bike with training wheels (to learn to turn the pedals), then finally moved to the 14X without pedals at first, then added the pedals (putting it all together).This is the lightest weight pedal bike I could find anywhere, weighing in on my scale at 15.6 lbs including the pedals. For comparison, the smallest Strider balance bike is significantly lighter at 6.6 lbs on the same scale, while her Diamondback Lil Impressions comes in at 20.0 lbs with training wheels. For a 32 lbs child, the extra 4.4 lbs made a big difference in how quickly she was able to climb, balance, push, and pedal the bike with confidence.The seat is closest to the ground, compared to other bikes with pedals that we've tried. One of the great features of the smallest balance bikes is how early kids can get on it. We got the Strider 12 when she was about 18 months, and she has been practicing balancing for quite a long time, and became quite proficient. The only reason it has taken this long to move to a pedal bike is because she was just not tall enough to reach the floor. On the lowest setting, the top of the Strider 14X seat is just about 15" off the ground. For comparison, the Strider 12 was about 11", while the Diamondback Lil Impressions was a horrible 18". For a 36" tall kid, these 3" are big difference. This height meant that she couldn't reach the ground from the 14X seat until very recently after her last growth spurt (and who knows when she'll reach it from the Diamondback...).The removable and narrow pedals are absolutely brilliant! She was pretty confident on the smaller Strider 12 balance bike, so we started off on the 14X without pedals and spent an hour just getting comfortable balancing this new, bigger bike. Then we came home and added the pedals. The first instinct she had was to try to pedal from a cold start, the same way she's done with her Diamondback. The next thing she tried was to just push the bike with her feet like a balance bike. This is where the narrow pedals shine, because it allowed her legs to reach the floor even with the pedals on and push it like before. Then as she picked up speed, she naturally just tried putting one foot on a pedal. Then the other. Then turning them. Finally, it all came together and she was able to bike around like a champ.So here's some free, unrequested advice, and basically my own advice for our second child who is not even a week old yet. Learn to balance on a balance bike as soon as you can comfortably reach the floor from the seat. Learn to turn the pedals on anything that has a pedal (ideally, something lighter than 20 lbs!). Then as soon as you can reach the floor from a seat that's 15" high, get on a Strider 14X! It's awesome, five stars.PS: and my advice to myself (and other parents) -- the best you can do is encourage the little one to practice, and cheer them on! (i.e. don't try to push them or balance them with your hands, you're probably just distracting them)

This has been a great purchase. My 3 (almost 4) year old was ready for a pedal bike, but was too big for a 12 inch and seemed too small for a 16 inch even though we went to several bike places that told us that was the right fit. She is on the smaller side (32 lbs, 39 inches), so all the 16 inch bikes we tried just seemed too heavy.This bike is perfect and extremely light weight which I liked. We kept it as a balance bike for a couple of weeks just to have her get the hang of it. We switched it over to a pedal bike and it took her maybe 30 or so minutes and she was pedaling, with no help from us and her just figuring it out. I think a major part of the success was the ability for her to still give herself a running start same as if she was on a balance bike. The back pedal brakes has been harder for her to understand, but seeing as she will move on to hand brakes, I am not soo concerned about this.The one thing that did make it slightly hard is the pedals themselves are about half the size of a regular pedal. That was one of her 1st comments was that they were too small for her to be able to put her foot on it. She has figured that out as well, and I imagine they are like that so kiddos still can balance if they need to, so they won't get in the way.Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and think this is really a great transition bike before they get to the much heavier 16 inch bikes that are found at most bike stores.
