The first thing we noticed upon getting the bike, was the ease in which it all fit together. All indispensable tools were included (an allen's wrench and quarterly wrench) and the directions were straightforward and clear. It took under 10 minutes start to finish. Five stars for ease of assembly!
[b]Bike Review[/b]
The next great highlight that stood out about the Strider® preBike, was its very light weight frame. At 6.9 pounds, the bike was extremely easy to load and unload and the children testing it could categorically pick it up on their own. Riders as young as two had no problem lifting the bike over curbs or positioning the bike independently. Also, with the frame being metal, it is very durable and withstands the elements well.
The height of the bike is other plus. The frame is so low to the ground, that pretty much any child who is walking confidently could ride the bike. The adjustable seat was key for some of the taller riders, and the Xl seat post choice allowed older preschoolers to fit on the bike. We would advise purchasing the easy release seat lever; it makes adjusting the seat much more convenient than using (and having to carry around) the wrench provided. The cope bars are also adjustable; the bike truly grows with the child.
We were also very happy with the rubber tires. Strider® also sells air-filled tires as an choice for the preBike, but in our opinion, this would be a mistake. Kids can ride the Strider® on city sidewalks, country paths and off road trails and be guaranteed to never have a flat! We didn't even flinch as kids rode the Strider over glass, thorns and sharp rocks. As parents, we felt this was a huge bonus, even if the ride with rubber tires isn't quite as flat as one with air-filled tires.
The Strider® preBike make is nothing super original. It does have integrated footrests along the back edge of the bike, and this sets it apart from some of the other equilibrium bikes out there. However, in our opinion, this wasn't one of Strider's great strengths. The colors it comes in are pretty basic too: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and pink. You categorically wouldn't be buying this bike for its originality, but there are plenty of other contributing factors that make the preBike a terrific buy.
Lastly, the cost of the Strider® cannot be beat. For such a well-constructed, lightweight, durable product, 0 seems like a bargain. This is a bike that retains its value; it can be passed down from child to child within a house and then sold for a good chunk of change. Having reviewed more than a handful of equilibrium bikes over the last any months, we can categorically say that you cannot go wrong with a Strider® preBike.
