Kids Bikes – Your Questions

We often hear a number of questions asked by parents regarding our kid’s bikes, also known as balance bikes. While the information is freely available on our website, we thought it might be fun to have a FAQ session on our blog! Here are some of the most common questions we get asked.

How much does a Strider PreBike weigh?

A strider bike is one of the lightest balance bikes on the market. Weighing in at only 6.9 pounds, it weighs less than the average new born. We’re able to do this because we build an extremely durable but lightweight steel frame. Our tyres are also foam filled so they are not heavy.

My child hates riding a bike because he constantly struggles with pedals. How will a Balance bike help this?

Well firstly, balance bikes don’t have pedals! Yep, our balance bike in particular is completely clutter free. We only have an integrated footrest that is helpful when your child starts using his little kids’ bikes more. Due to the fact that there are no pedals, your child can learn how to balance and co-ordinate himself much quicker. One day bring out the old pedal bicycle and ask your kid to give it a try. Chances are he or she will easily be able to ride it now.

We’re so sick of the plain blue or pink colour alternatives for little kid’s bikes. Do you have any alternative colours?

We’ve heard this one a lot so we are pretty proud when we can say we have six different colours for our balance bikes. Our range comes in blue, red, orange, yellow, green and pink. The colours have a metallic finish that make them look really top notch.
