Strider Sports Running Bike Review & Giveaway
My 3 year old is constantly trying to keep up with his brother, even in the bike riding department. Thanks to Strider Sports International, we had the opportunity to review the Strider Running Bike in Orange. As soon as my son saw it, he wanted to take it out for a spin. When he first started, he was literally running while sitting on the bike – hence the name Running Bike. Now, he zooms around it likes it’s nothing! I felt comfortable letting my 3 year old ride on the bike himself instead of jumping for him every time he wobbled back and forth! This bike is definitely “Approved by The Mommy-Files!”
The great thing about the Strider Running Bike is that there are no “tricycle tip-overs” or “training wheel wobbles,” which tend to create a fear and hesitancy in the child to continue riding on a bike. The Strider Running Bike helps your child develop balance and coordination skills before learning to pedal. With this confidence, bike riding becomes much easier and FUN! The Strider Running Bike is designed for children ages 1-5 and is easy to control. The bike also has features such as an adjustable seat and handlebars – perfect for your growing child.
I am amazed by this bike and will definitely be using it with my younger kids when the right time comes. I also love the customer service I received from Strider Sports International. They were willing to answer any questions I had and shipped the bike out right away.
This would be an awesome Christmas gift for a young child in your life who is striving to learn to ride a bike!

I would love to have this for my 3 year old. He wants to be just like his big sister.
Hmmm… not sure what you want for the mandatory entry…. “WIN IT!!! (MANDATORY ENTRY)”
But, I would love to win one of these for my 2 year old son… red is his favorite color. I am impressed that, according to the video on their site, kids that can walk can learn to ride a Strider. Very cool!
I would love to win it.

I love so many things about this bike! It comes in a great selection of colors, it’s lightweight, and is smaller than most other running bikes!

Love it teaches balance first before pedaling. My little guy is the perfect age to try this and has no desire to learn to pedal yet. fingers crossed.
