Strider launches first new Balance Bike in nine years
Strider Bikes announced the launch of the Strider 12 Comp - a brand new balance bike for children aged 1-3. The first Strider built with a lightweight composite frame, the Strider 12 Comp delivers the core performance you expect from a genuine Strider, at a value that makes learning to ride accessible, fun, and stress-free.
Unlock the joy of two-wheel fun
Strider's first new balance bike model since 2017 and first new 12" model since 2013, the Strider 12 Comp is designed to help more riders unlock the joy of two-wheel fun. Little ones will feel confident from their first strides with a composite frame that weighs only 4.9 lbs. Then watch their skills take off with the beloved features that have helped over 10 million children learn to ride with Strider – a performance geometry that keeps the bike stable yet agile, a standing footrest that supports advanced riding skills, a perfectly-sized handlebar for tiny hands, and an adjustable seat for a comfortable fit as they grow.
Safely and effectively learn how to ride a bike
"Our mission at Strider has always been empowering every child to safely and effectively learn how to ride a bike," said Strider Founder & CEO Ryan McFarland. "The Strider 12 Comp will give more families the chance to access the smiles, memories and skill development of the genuine Strider experience.“
