Circle Specialty Strive EZ Adaptive Stroller for Special Needs

Full-Body Support for Your Child, and an Easier Push for You

The Circle Specialty Strive EZ is a lightweight adaptive stroller built for children who need more support than a regular stroller can give. It holds your child comfortably upright with a tension-adjustable back, a 5-point harness with pelvic belt, and a seat that grows with them, then folds with one hand so it goes wherever your family goes.

The Strive EZ is the updated version of Circle Specialty's popular Strive stroller. It keeps everything families love about the original and adds a new one-piece push handle that adjusts for height and angle, angle-adjustable footplates as standard, and soft rubber tires for a quieter ride.

Who the Strive EZ Is Best For

• Children who need trunk, head, and lower-body support to sit comfortably upright
• Kids who have outgrown a typical stroller but still need a supportive seat for outings
• Families who want one stroller for school, appointments, errands, and travel
• Caregivers who need a stroller that folds quickly and fits in the car
• Growing children, with four sizes and an adjustable seat that extends as they grow

What's New on the Strive EZ

• One-piece push handle: adjusts for both height and angle, so every caregiver can find a comfortable pushing position.
• Angle-adjustable footplates, standard: these were an add-on for the original Strive and now come included.
• Soft rubber tires: a quieter, smoother ride on sidewalks and indoor floors.
• Reinforced cross brace: added strength for everyday use.

Full-Body Positioning Support

The Strive EZ's back uses adjustable tension straps, so you can shape the back to your child's body and give support exactly where it's needed. A 5-point harness and pelvic belt keep your child centered and secure, and padded side supports help with upright posture.

The seat sits at a gentle 20-degree angle to help your child stay settled, and the seat-to-back angle adjusts from 80 to 95 degrees. Seat depth extends about 4 inches, so the stroller can keep fitting as your child grows.

Adjustable Footrest and Footplates

The footrest adjusts for height, swings away for easier transfers in and out, and removes completely when you need it out of the way. The angle-adjustable footplates let you set your child's feet at a comfortable, well-supported position.

One-Hand Fold for Life on the Go

The Strive EZ folds flat with one hand, so you can keep a hand free for your child or your bags. Its lightweight aluminum frame weighs 33 to 36 lbs depending on size, making it manageable to lift into a car trunk for school, appointments, and family trips.

Choosing the Right Size

The Strive EZ comes in four sizes. Choose based on your child's hip width and weight, and allow room for growth. Not sure which size is right? Give us a call and we'll help you choose, or read our Pediatric Mobility Equipment Buying Guide for tips on measuring your child.
