So, in honor of National Bike Month, we’ve rounded up the hottest bikes for all levels of riders, plus fun accessories to upgrade anyone’s two (or three) wheeler. Ride on!

 

Strider PREbike Toddler Balance Bike

Training wheels are so last summer. The Strider allows little ones ages 1-5 to learn two-wheeled riding on a model designed to teach balance for beginners. In place of pedals are integrated footrests so riders can lift their feet on and off the ground whenever they feel ready (or wobbly). Available in additional colors. Snag it at Target for $89.

(For a similar version of the PREbike, check out the Kazam Balance Bike, built for riders ages 3-6, $99 at Walmart.)

Available for $50 at Monkeylectric.
