Strider 14x, Balance Bike for Kids 3 to 6 Years - Includes Kid-Size Grips, Padded Seat, Performance Footrest & All-Purpose Tires - Easy Assembly & Adjustments

I bought this for my three year old who is absolutely feral. He breaks everything. If it has wheels or moving parts he’s testing it to the limit. But this bike has held up so well and it has quickly become his favorite thing.It is super sturdy and really well made. He flies around the yard on it and it still looks brand new. I love that it can grow with him too. It was really easy to put together and he figured out how to use it right away. The balance feature gives him so much confidence and I can already tell it will make transitioning to pedals way easier.If you have a wild little one who needs something that can keep up with them this is the bike. Worth every penny.

The Strider 14x is very high quality, super easy to assemble, adjustable for growth and lightweight.The bike has excellent geometry that promotes stability and builds confidence quickly.After a season of "striding", I added the pedal kit and watched my 4 year old granddaughter ride away under pedal power on her first try!

This bike has been awesome! I wish I would have bought one for my older child when she was young. It’s light weight and easy to use for my 3 year old. We will be adding pedals really soon!

This is our second bike since our son outgrew the first. This bike is made with quality materials and is light weight. My son was able to learn to bike without ever using training wheels by age 4. Get it today!

So far so good. Perfect for a 4 year old on the smaller side. Foot rests are not in an awkward place like the 12” model. Easy to assemble with zero issues. Worth it.

This is the second strider bike we have bought (1 for different kids) it has held up so well. We bought it for our 4yo birthday and bought a pedal kid. She learned to side her bike without training wheels in less than a week on this bike. We’ve had it for about a year now and still looks brand new and held up great. It’s sooooo worth the price.

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.

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.
