Strider Sports International Inc., the manufacturer and marketer of children’s no-pedal balance bikes, has identified an even younger group of potential bike riders – toddlers, ages 12-24 months, just learning to stand and walk.

According to Strider Founder and Chief Enthusiast Ryan McFarland, “a baby who rocks becomes a toddler who rides. We all know babies enjoy rocking horses when they are small. The problem is that no child ever gets to unhitch the horse and ride off into the sunset. With the Strider Bike and Rocking Base system, babies as young as 12 months can safely rock and play on the bike when first introduced, then graduate to the true freedom that the Strider Bike offers as they ride away some months later.”

The product attaches to any 12-inch Strider Balance Bike and allows the youngest member of the family to rock/ride a Strider Bike on a safe and stable base until they are old enough to ride the bike – which is typically around 18 months.
