Radio Flyer Air Ride Balance Bike, Toddler Bike, Ages 1.5-5 (Amazon Exclusive), Toddler Bike

This bike was easy to assemble and is well made. The seat and handle bars are adjustable to change their height quickly with the release of a lever. My 4 year old daughter is extremely tall for her age (about 44 inches tall) and this bike, at its tallest setting, is borderline too small for her. I wish they came in a slightly bigger size for tall kiddos. Otherwise, this is helping her learn how to balance well in preparation for her big-girl-bike. All kids should start with this after a tricycle instead of a small bike with training wheels! It does not have pedals and is propelled by the childs feet. Training wheels do nothing to teach the balance that is needed to ride a bike, and it was terrifying to my daughter to take them off once she was used to riding with them. I highly recommend this bike for a child that is too big for a tricycle but too small for a bike without training wheels.

This balance bike is perfect for my three and a half year old little boy. My husband put it together very easily in just a few minutes. It seems to be good quality. I love the classic look and the sweet bell.

Got it for my 4 yo who took to it right away. It did help that there are several friends of hers who already have balance bikes and she was able to see how it should be ridden before having one of her own. Cons: rather disappointed that the tires were plastic but then I looked at the price tag and all is forgiven. My major beef though is with the seat. No matter how tight I tried to adjust it, it always becomes a bit crook after a few bike sessions. Pros: affordable, looks good, light weight so that even your child can pick it up, the bell, rides well, and last but not the least, it does prepare your child for pedal bikes. We have this bike for 2 months and my toddler already can balance it pretty well. She would pick her feet up and glide for 15 seconds or more before having to push with her feet again. Highly recommend this bike for the fact that it does what every balance bike should do at an affordable price.

Arrived dirty. The bell also had to be fixed.

My 2 year old hasnt quite figured it out yet, but my 4 year old and even 6 year old love taking turns with this balance bike. Study, good quality, this was a worthwhile purchase.

I would recommend it.

After trying out a larger pedal bike with trainers for our 3 year old we decided to get this little balance bike. It was a great idea. Our son was frustrated with the bigger bike, couldn’t manage it because it was to heavy, and we would end up pushing him...a lot. With the balance bike, he is pushing along and enjoying the ride a lot more. Not to mention he has already started gliding on it. But he still loves it! He’s a tall 3, but the fit is perfect. Definitely recommend as a first bike.

These balance bikes (Striders) are the BEST way bypass training wheels and help even your 2 y/o learn how to actually balance and ride a bike. The natural process of them using their feet and balancing themselves helps them learn to ride on their own. Got this for 2 y/o grandson and within a week he could already push and balance and glide (a little bit) without feet touching. Wont be long before we get him a pedal bike and skip training wheels altogether. AND he LOVES the little bell.

2 year old loves it. It is still slightly too big for him to sit on the seat, but he loves walking around with. It is great that he will have something to grow with him for awhile.

I got this after I met a mom in our park who had a 3yo who was riding a two wheel bike. I asked what her secret was and she said it was a balance bike. I ordered one and it took my 4yo a few weeks to get on board with using it, but she loves it now. She likes riding on two wheels like her big sister. Plus, it has a bell so that makes it cool.
