Strider Pro 2-in-1 Rocking Balance Bike, 6 Months–5 Years, Black Pearl

One of the lightest balance bikes ever is paired with a removable Rocking Base so your baby can go from crawling to cruising. The ultra-light Strider 12 Pro 2-in-1 Rocking Bike weighs just 5.6 lbs. and is made with an aluminum frame so little ones can easily maneuver it without help or tiring out too quickly. When your baby is just starting out and developing critical motor skills, the Rocking Base securely holds the Strider 12 Pro bike in place, letting them rock and learn how to self-propel before they ever take their first steps. With the Rocking Base attached, the product is intended for babies 6 months to 2 years old, or an inseam of at least 10 inches, making it a popular addition to baby registries and nurseries alike. Once your child masters rocking, detach the Rocking Base and they're ready to roll into the next stage of the Learn-to-Ride process. Off the Rocking Base, the Strider 12 Pro Balance Bike grows with your child from ages 1–4 years old, or an inseam of 12–18 in., thanks to easy-adjust clamps for both seat and handlebar height. The bike itself is built with young riders in mind with carefully measured geometry built for the best performance as they age, child-size mini grips, a Standing Footrest, and a padded seat for comfort. Maximum rider weight is 40 lbs. for both the bike and the Rocking Base. Assembly is straightforward for both components. The Rocking Base attaches directly to the bike's axles with two clips and is built from durable, all-weather plastic. The durable bike and base together offer a true 2-in-1 solution that carries your child from their earliest rocking days all the way through learning to ride solo, with just one product that's easy to clean with warm, soapy water. See what makes the Strider 12 Pro 2-in-1 Rocking Bike the best balance bike to buy for babies before they can walk.
