Welcome to Balance Bikes 4 Tots.  Located in Northern California within close proximity to San Francisco, we are blessed to have plenty of great biking weather.  We are a family with 3 kids 6 and under.  

We fell in love with the Strider bike when we saw a friend’s 2 year old son riding his little Strider bike.  I was so amazed that a child that young could ride so confidently and so well on a bike.  After doing some additional research and finding out that this is the BEST bike out there and seeing all the videos of young riders online,  I was hooked and knew these were the perfect bikes for my 2 sons, ages 21 months and 3 years.

We purchased the first bike for my 21 month old son and he loved it.  As soon as we gave him the bike, he immediately knew what to do and the cool thing was that he could even pick up his bike by himself (it’s that light).  He really enjoys biking and keeping up with his older siblings on their bikes.  Seeing how well my youngest son was doing,  we decided to purchase another Strider bike for my older son  and he was hooked from the very beginning.  Although he was already riding a bike with training wheels for over a year (Say NO to training wheels), he immediately “liked the Strider way more” because he didn’t have to worry about falling off his bike plus he could do all sorts of neat tricks on the Strider.  He even made a cute comment about “how we need to get rid of his rocket bike (what he called his bike) because it makes him fall and go this way and that (from the teetering effect of training wheels) “.

Within 2 days of receiving the bike, he was already balancing and gliding really well.  It took my daughter over 2 years to learn how to ride a bike without training wheels (wished I knew about the Strider back then).  So, now seeing how quickly my boys have progressed on their bikes and how happy and confident they both are,  it has made me more convinced that we need to say NO to tricycles and bikes with training wheels.  The Strider Balance bike is so much safer and easier to use…Balance bikes are the way to go!    

The Strider is such a wonderful bike…it’s affordable, it’s lightweight, very durable, and so easy to use.  You can even add a rear foot brake and an XL seat post as your kids get older and better at using the bike.

I truly believe learning to ride a bike is one of the best gifts you can give your child because they learn a skill that they can enjoy for a lifetime. What better way than to start them off with a Strider Prebike.  

From our family to yours,  we wish you many happy memories biking together!
