Instant success. That’s what we wanted kids to experience on the Strider 14x Sport. We put together all the right ingredients to give your tyke a taste of confidence to successfully shift from riding a balance bike to pedaling like a pro as quickly as possible. Why? Because of the success your child experiences when they ride a Strider is going to stay with them throughout their life.
Kids from all over the world are learning how to ride on the 14x Sport. The confidence and freedom that comes with learning how to pedal a bike rockets them into a level of the awesomesphere they didn’t even know existed. Plus, parents get to see their child grow and develop right before their eyes. Pretty cool, right? The 14x starts off as a balance bike, which helps kiddos who either haven’t been on a bike before or are veteran Strider riders gain confidence and balancing ability on a bigger bike. Once your little renegade is ready to pedal, just attach the Easy-Ride Pedal Conversion Kit (sold separately) and VOILÁ! You got the most adjustable, most amazing pedal bike in the world.
It gets better. If your mini-me is sprouting up faster than a weed amped up on fertilizer, the adjustable seat and handlebars mean the 14x Sport will continue to fit them. Converting the 14x from balance bike to pedal bike is super quick and easy (we even give you the wrench to screw in the only bolt) and the pedal kit has coaster brakes making skid marks easy peasy. Now, your kid is pedaling around the neighborhood thinking you’re a superhero for getting them a 14x. They’re realizing their skills and freedom with newfound confidence and thirst for adventure. And now, your neighbors all have to step up their parenting game

Which bike fits?
Learning to ride a bike is a monumental milestone for any kiddo! But it can be a miserable experience if the bike doesn’t fit your child properly. Check out our tips for choosing the right Strider Bike to fit your little rider’s size.
Why measuring your child’s inseam is important
What size bike should I get for my child?
Easy, the best size bike for your kiddo is the bike that fits them from day one. The best way to do that is to measure their inseam.
Yeah, but what about their age?
Age is more like…an approximate fit. Inseam is an exact fit, trust us.
Ok, got it. What’s an inseam?
Inseam is the distance between the ground and the crotch (just in case you’re interested in measuring your inseam for your next Halloween costume).
Ok, so why is this inseam babble so important?
We’re all different heights and shapes, even when we’re the same age. This is especially true with kids. Because they grow like crazy, they all have different heights and leg lengths. By measuring inseam, you’re making sure that your child’s bike has the perfect fit. A bike that perfectly fits means they’ll be experiencing two-wheeled success and confidence faster than you can say Strider.
Right. So, how exactly do I measure this?
Have your child stand up really straight with their shoes on (you can have them stand with their back to a wall if that helps). Place a book between their legs and slide it up the wall to meet the crotch seam of their pants, just like they were sitting on a bike saddle. Measure from the top of the book to the floor and….BINGO! You have your inseam.
