RoyalBaby Freestyle Sport Kids Bike 12 14 16 18 20 Inch Wheel Bicycle Boys Girls Ages 3+ Years, Multiple Color Options

Bike has a great build and good qualities, albeit a bit on the heavy side. Seems to work fine but there are two points worth mentioning:1. Stopping the pedal is another way to brake. This means that a child cannot reverse the pedals to adjust their feet/push strength. They'll have to push through the full cycle which makes it a bit harder for younger children.2. One of the training wheels seems to get loose very often. Need to be aware and tighten it up so the child is not injured.

This is a great bike at a reasonable price. My son is 4 years old, 42 inches (106cm) tall, with a 16 inch (41cm) inseam and we bought the 14 inch bike for him--which turned out to be the perfect size. Thank goodness we didn't go larger, as we debated doing. It's hard to find 14" bikes in stores to try on for size, so I hope that helps. He loves his new bike! He went from a Strider balance bike to this one, so we didn't use the training wheels, but here are my thoughts on the rest of it:1. Thick tires add stability. I'm sure the kids have to pedal more/harder, because of the added friction, but it's a great feature for kids learning to ride a bike without training wheels. We've gotten several comments from strangers about how amazed they were he was riding a two-wheeler and how much easier this bike looked due to the thick tires. (Some of his ability we owe to the strider balance bike, of course; it took him about 10 minutes to figure out how pedals worked, but other than that, he took off on this bike pretty readily. However, I think the thick tires definitely helped with the transition and continue to help him as a new rider.) Since his dad mountain bikes, my son loves going on the kiddie-level dirt trails "like my dad" and the tires on this bike are especially great for that kind of terrain.2. Sleek design. It really is an attractive bike and yes, kids care that their bike likes "cool." (We got the white bike.)3. Nice wide seat with a rim on the back. Comfortable, easy for kids to sit on and feel balanced and secure. This is something else I've heard comments about. ("What I wonderful wide seat!")4. Two sets of brakes--there is a hand brake on the handlebars, and the pedal brakes as well. I mostly see my son (4yo) use the pedals, but he says he uses both. If nothing else, I think he likes that it looks like his dad's bike. It's nice to have both options.5. I really like the the chain is enclosed with a plastic guard so he doesn't get caught in it or manage to pull it off. His pants don't get dirty and curious fingers don't get pinched. A neighbor kid always seems to have his (exposed) chain fall off and, so far, this hasn't been an issue at all with this bike.6. The seat goes so low. Another bike I looked at did not adjust as low, despite being the same size bike. That was a MUST for him at this stage, since it would have been too tall for him when he was just learning to ride and needed to be able to reach the ground. Of course, the seat raises, too.7. The bell broke in about a week's time. I don't know if it's because the attaching ring is just plastic, or if my son was too rough with it. That's disappointing, but doesn't affect the integrity of the bike itself, so...oh well. I worried that the water bottle holder, which is also plastic, would break with all the use; but so far it's held up great. Speaking of, the water bottle is a nice extra. Its not a make-or-break, but my son LOVES that he has his own real water bottle. He feels like he has a "real mountain bike" like his dad.Other than the bell breaking, I would be hard-pressed to find any complaint about this bike. We can hardly get my son off his bike. He'd sleep in his helmet if we'd let him, just so he'd be ready to ride at any given moment.If you're looking for a set of bike lights for safety, I really recommend these: The Friendly Swede Silicone 7 LED Bike Light Set, White and Red. They're great lights, inexpensive, very bright, easy to attach or remove, have several light pattern settings, and they fit nicely.

It’s all about my 4 yr old grandson’s opinion, and he loves this bike. Seems to be very well constructed and the training wheels are well balanced (on many bikes 1 wheel is always off the ground). It is on the heavy side, but I think it makes it more sturdy. He loves the water bottle & holder, too.My only negative is that it’s on the pricey side, especially given that he will outgrow it before long.

This bike came nearly fully assembled. All you have to do is put the handlebars and pedals on and then some accessories if you want or can install them. It was very easy to assemble those parts.My only gripe is with the seat all the way down, you can’t install the rear LED or the mud flap because there is no room.The bike rides really well straight out of the box and my son loved it. I like the rear brake setup, I’ve never seen an internal brake like that before. Usually it’s an exposed disc or visible pads on the rim but this has a brake drum hub type assembly.When it’s time to pickup the next size up, I would highly consider this brand.

This bike is lightweight, but sturdy enough. Only time will tell how well it'll hold up. It's a beautiful bike and my kid loves it. I knocked off 1 star because the package was beaten up when it arrived, the mud guard keeps twisting around despite being tighten to the fullest, and the seat was horribly uncomfortable. I wish the seat has more padding and a little bigger for tweens to comfortably sit on. For an ergonomic bike, it sure has an awful support for the rider's bottom! For that, it doesn't deserve my 5 stars.
