RAPID CITY, SD (BRAIN) — Strider Sports is releasing a heavy-duty 12-inch pneumatic-tire wheelset for its Strider bikes.

The set is designed to help riders aged 3 and up progress from the Strider bikes' stock five-spoke wheels with airless EVA polymer tires. The new wheels provide more tractionand durability. They have alloy rims and steel hubs and spokes. They fit all 12-inch Strider (ST) model bikes. 

"The Strider Heavy-Duty Wheels help bridge the gap during a crucial stage of a young rider's development," said Ryan McFarland, CEO of Strider Sports International. "When a child is ready to start doing more intense riding, it's a natural step to upgrade to a pneumatic wheel and bring the Strider Evolution one step closer to a full-fledged pedal bike."

MSRP: $49.
