Deep Dive
This is just the beginning. Make some fun and lasting memories as you watch your little tike “pedal” around on the Strider 12 Classic Balance Bike.
Meant for children aged 18 months to 3 years, this pedal-free ride is driven one-foot at a time to teach your child balance and coordination before speed.
You’ll never have to worry about fixing flat tires, as these are flat-free, and for an extra safeguard you can add an optional rear brake if your little racer proves too fast for you.
