Strider PREbikes: Kissable
Thursday, July 29th, 2010We got this note and photo from one of our dealers:
Remember that bike I had to send to Hawaii priority mail (cause you guys won’t drive to the post office for me to do parcel post – lol !!) well he got it early and the grandma sent me this cute but fuzzy picture of him kissing the bike saying he loves it so much!. He is also the one that I talked out of getting the mini glider – which was good as he would have been much too little. He is turning 2 in about a week. Thought I’d send it to you.

Strider Cup Japan
Friday, July 16th, 2010The 4TH STRIDER CUP with the support of HOTWHEELS & MEDICOM TOYS was held
at Aqua Arena in Tokyo from July 3 -4 http://www.strider.jp/news/index100601.html (here’s an English translation from Google.)
STRIDER KIDS CLASS (total of 160 attendants/kids) including the beginner Class for a
total of 90. The actual breakdown of this race was divided in the following category:
Age 2 class
Age 3 class
Age 4-5 class
As you can see from some of these fun videos, the event was a huge success.
The organizers asked us if in the future, guest riders from the US can participate in the race in Japan and vice versa. Any ideas? Let’s make it happen!
Learning to Ride a Bike
Friday, July 2nd, 2010We’ve been inundated with testimonials from parents lately who are thrilled that their child is on a regular pedal bike after just a few short time on their Strider PREBike.
Here are just a few of the comments submitted on our site and you can read more and become a fan on our Facebook page:
“We bought a Strider bike for our 2 year old son in october and 7 months later at 2 years and 10 months old he is now riding a two wheeled bike – no training wheels. He absolutely LOVED his Strider bike and it made it so easy for him to transition to the pedal bike. Thanks for such a great product.” – Alyson Miyose
“Hands down the best investment we have made on an item for our son. He was riding his by the time he was 18 months old. We were so happy that the bike fit him. He is now 3 1/2, the bike still fits him and he still loves to ride it! The transition to a pedal bike was seamless. We love this product and can’t say enough wonderful things about it! Thank you for creating such an incredible product! We can’t wait to pass it on to our youngest” – Amber Tjeerdsma
“I never write reviews but I couldn’t resist this one. I set out less than two months ago to buy my 2 1/2 year old son a bike (with training wheels). I discovered the Strider online and ordered it thinking that with the money back guarantee, we had nothing to lose. He’s been riding it for the last 6 weeks, not even every day. Three days ago we put him on a two wheel bike, no training wheels! Check out the video taken yesterday on his third day riding a “big boy bike”. Trey will be 2 years, 9 months old tomorrow. And he’s riding a bike with no training wheels! Amazing–thank you!”

Thursday, June 17th, 2010We heard from Paul in Woodbridge, Connecticut. He and his wife have 4 girls age 5 and under! The 3-year-old rides about 60% on her Strider and 40% on her pedal bike, although she still prefers the Strider. Paul says, “The 21-month-old cries if she doesn’t see her Strider bike in the car when we go places 
”
Here’s the comment they sent in…
I am sure you have heard this before, but every parent should get one of these bikes for their kids

Balance Bike Foot Rests, Strider Gives Toddlers a Natural Riding Position
Thursday, May 6th, 2010The foot rests on a Strider balance bike are in the perfect place to ready toddlers for pedals. They offer a very natural riding position, making it so that kids are comfortable enough when they switch to a full fledged bike.
Here’s a cool video of Jack gliding downhill, awesome view of the foot rests in action!
Here’s another video of Jack easily striding back up the hill for another ride.
We Love Hearing from our Customers
Wednesday, April 14th, 2010“I purchased one of your bikes in December (Christmas Present) for my daughter. In the past several weeks she has finally totally fallen in love with it. Even brings it inside and yes, rides it. Until we catch her and tell her to get the bike out of the house. But you got to laugh at her Zipping through the house!”

Strider PREbike featured on the Examiner.com
Tuesday, April 13th, 2010
We’d like to thank Dean Rotbart for the wonderful article he wrote on the Examiner.com about the Strider PREbike.
“Toddlers are eager to ride independently like the big kids and our PREbikes let them do it a lot sooner and more safely than do trikes or training wheels,” says McFarland, who invented the first Strider PREbike in his garage for his then 2-year-old son, Bode.

Bicycling.com review of the Strider PREBike
Friday, April 2nd, 2010Thank You Bicycling.com! You understand the benefits of the Strider PREBike!
Here’s their review of our product:
Editorial Review
A WELL-BALANCED KID: Strider bikes don’t have pedals or a drivetrain,
the better to help your young rider-to-be build his balance and handling
abilities. He’ll power the bike with a running motion, then glide along,
learning to steer both manually and by shifting his body weight, and without
the added complication of having to pedal.
A BONUS: There’s no drivetrain to maintain and no chain to pinch little fingers—
and the steel frame, available in six colors, handles pavement and trails.
