I really enjoyed testing the Strida during the couple of weeks I had it

The belt drive was something else that I was pretty happy with. I was a little skeptical, so I put it through the paces with some hard uphill pedaling and sprints, even once in the rain. The belt performed flawlessly through it all.

The Strida attracted more attention than any other bike I have ridden.

Though it wasn’t bad for short rides, the fit for me was not ideal. I am 6’ 2” tall, and I feel like I was right at the upper limit of rider height that the bike could reasonably accommodate. The bike is sold a “one size fits all”, but it definitely fit my wife, who is about 5’ 7”, better than it fit me.

it would be a great choice for a lot of people. For someone who commutes to work on a subway or bus part of the way

In a dense urban environment where apartments are small and storage space is limited, the Strida would be a good choice as well

perfect for carrying a helmet
