Strider Sports International Announces STRIDER ST-PRO™ Coming Spring 2013

Sept. 30, 2012 - PRLog -- Strider Sports International, the world’s premier manufacturer and marketer of children’s no-pedal balance bikes, is bringing lightweight performance to a new level with the new STRIDER ST-PRO. Designed for kids aged two to five years old, the STRIDER ST-PRO will have children cruising on asphalt, grass, and even more demanding obstacles with the strength of an aluminum frame for total control on any terrain.

The STRIDER ST-PRO was designed and built based on the same, simple, lightweight, no-pedal design as the original Strider No-Pedal Balance Bike. It is the perfect bike for toddlers to start exploring life on two wheels. The lightweight durability of the aluminum frame means it is also designed to ride alongside skateboards, scooters and mountain bikes at skate parks and BMX tracks around the globe — a true multi-functional bike for the adventuresome child.

The STRIDER ST-PRO received impressive reactions during its debut at Interbike 2012 in Las Vegas.

The STRIDER ST-PRO will offer many of the same features as the STRIDER ST-3, but with an emphasis on lightweight performance.

- Simple, ultra-lightweight design (4.9 pounds): Perfect for toddlers aged 2-5 years old.
- All-Aluminum Frame: Stylish look only from a true polished aluminum frame
- Patented STRIDER LAUNCHPAD Footrests: Uniquely integrated into frame and positioned for advanced riding skills.
- Puncture-Proof EVA Polymer Tires: Eliminate flats and are approximately half the weight of an inflatable tire.
- Adjustable Seat & Handlebar: Keeps bike properly fit for a growing child.

“The STRIDER ST-PRO is a natural progression for Strider Bikes,” said Ryan McFarland, CEO of Strider Sports International. “The aluminum frame is the perfect way for Strider Riders to take the next step with their riding, whether it’s onto the playground or the dirt track. We can’t wait to see toddlers enjoying life on two wheels in more ways than ever before!”
