US
based Strider Sports International Inc., the world’s premier manufacturer and
marketer of a range of quality, safe and durable balance bikes, announced their
foray into the Indian market. These bikes are primarily targeted at those
little ones who have just about begun to take their first baby steps in life. .
No crank set and chain, no pedals and absolutely no training wheels make
Strider Balance Bikes not only unique but also the safest option for a child.
Strider
Balance Bikes range will be listed for retail on Amazon India by Etailz, an authorised
dealer appointed by Strider. Currently,
the Strider 12 Sport Balance Bike is available for purchase at a price of Rs 12,270. Etailz will add the Strider Sport Baby Bundle as well as the
Strider14x Sport Balance Bike to the portfolio by the end of this quarter.
Present
in India for the announcement, Dan Chell, Outreach Manager, Strider Bikes said,
"India is a very important market for us and we are very excited to
introduce our product portfolio to the quality conscious and progressive Indian
audience. After overwhelming response and affection received across the globe,
we are confident that the children in India will love Strider Bikes just as
much as we love to inspire and teach them to ride. With Strider Bikes, kids no
longer have to suffer from pedal scrapes or training wheel accidents – They can
become confident, balancing pros with the help of their own two feet!”
Ryan
McFarland, President, CEO, and Chief Enthusiast, Strider Sports International
Inc. says, “From tricycles to bikes with training wheels, parents often invest
a substantial amount of money into products that weren’t really designed with
the child’s success in mind. The toughest part about learning to ride a bicycle
isn’t pedalling, it is balance and steering. Strider Balance Bikes help the
rider learn steering and balance before introducing them to pedals. No crank
set and chain, no pedals and absolutely no training wheels make Strider Balance
Bikes not only unique but also the safest option for your child. Our global
success is a testament to the awesomeness of the Strider design.”
Learning
to ride a bike at a young age helps children develop core strength, motor
skills, and confidence. Strider Balance Bikes aims to aid in the overall
development of children across the globe through their product portfolio.
Strider
Sports International gives children as young as six months old the best
first-bike experience. Strider Bikes revolutionised the bike’s design to
develop a child’s balance first and pairs each balance bike with a proven
learn-to-ride process. Children across the globe are starting on a Strider Bike
and becoming two-wheeling virtuosos – before they’re out of diapers.
Founded
in 2007, in Rapid City, South Dakota, Strider has sold more than 2 million
bikes and is distributed in more than 75 countries.
