## Description

Babies everywhere are clapping their chubby little hands over the fact that they too can now ride –or play – on a bike. As soon as your little one begins to crawl, they’re pretty much telling you they’re ready to explore and won’t stop…at least not until it’s nap time. The Strider Sport 2-in-1 Rocking Bike is the best way to teach balance and improve dexterity, cognitive ability, and spatial awareness (yeah, a kid’s bike company totally knows what those are). Besides eating, sleeping, and pooping, one of the coolest things kids do is form bonds – with parents, with family members, and with toys. The Strider Rocking Bike helps your little bundle of biscuits bond with their very first bike before they ever take it to the rough and tumble cul-de-sac. The rocking base securely holds the Strider Sport in place as your baby literally rocks out. Eventually, they’ll be rocking so hard you’ll think they’re about to blast off into the stratosphere. Don’t worry, we disengaged the sweet rocket engines. This baby’s (no pun intended) all self-propelled. When your tater tot has mastered rocking and is ready to roll out, simply detach the bike. The 12 Sport is the perfect bike to take your child from baby steps to big strides, all without busting out a toolkit (no-tool adjustable seat and handlebar and tires that never go flat). We even added a cushy, padded seat so your child is comfortable for the long life of their Strider. The Strider Sport has a seat height range from 9-17 in. (23-43 cm), which means it fits children with an inseam of 10-18 in. (26-46 cm). With the Strider Rocking Base attached, this product is intended for ages 6-24 mos. The Strider 12″ Sport Balance Bike detached from the Rocking Base is intended for children 1 to 4 years old.

Review: 10/10 bike! Love it! - Where to begin... The bike itself is awesome! Very well made, and perfect for your little ones. This bike helped my 1.5 year old learn to ride and now (before his 2nd birthday), he's zooming around the house like a little dare devil. It's by far his favorite toy, very fun to ride! The bike is very lightweight, and the balance platform that comes with it gets the young'ns comfortable with balancing themselves by hanging on to the grips. It's perfect size for 2-5 years old, as you can raise the handlebars and seat. Now, let's talk about the negatives... The tires. They are super slick. If you have hardwood floors, it's going to be a concern if you have a child like mine who tends to go a tad bit too fast sometimes. If they take a corner with some speed, the front tire will slide out from underneath them, and they will wipe out. I ended up replacing the slick, foam tires with some rubber ones from another bike I picked up from a yard sale. If your child will only be using this outside, then you have no worries at all, other than if they're riding on concrete a lot, the foam tends to wear out pretty fast, but of course, they sell replacement tires. Go figure. The second negative. The foot pegs, or the plastic piece where kids are supposed to place their feet when they are riding downhill. At the beginning when my child was learning this bike, he calves ending up getting irritated because when they push off, the calves will scrap the foot holders. I went ahead and removed them because my child never used them anyways. Other than those two negatives, it's a solid bike and I've recommended it to all my friends and family who have small ones.
Review: Perfect introduction for little ones. - I was skeptical about a 1 year-old navigating the Strider-rocker, but she loves it. Easy to assemble. Good quality. And more importantly, planting the muscle-memory seed for riding.
