This review is from: Ex Kiddio Supertrike 1 (Toy)
I bought this for my son who's almost 3 years old. He tried the Kiddi-o Supertrike 2 and 3 and all the other more expensive tricycles but this is the one he likes. He also owns another tricycle but he has trouble pushing the pedals because the alignment is not as good as this one. Because of the elevation on the center of each tires in this trike it's very easy to maneuver and smooth to ride. He loves it and won't trade it for the other more expensive trikes. If you're looking for a great non expensive trike and your child will actually love to use, this is the one. If your child does not like his trike try this one!!!

This review is from: Ex Kiddio Supertrike 1 (Toy)
This tricycle is a Kettler made in Germany. If you go into a bike store and look at a Kettler tricycle, which looks the same as this one, it will cost you more then $100. My daughter has a 2 wheel bike with training wheels since she is really tall for a 3-year-old, but she does not ride it and we thought she could not ride a bike yet- Wrong! We went to Toys R Us and sat her on this tricyce. We thought she'd be way too big for it since she is 43" tall, but she has room to grow on it still. We set the seat to the middle position and the length of the bike is set in the middle as well (both positions are adjustable!) They told me at her Preschool that she was starting to learn to ride a tricycle but I never witnessed it. Well at Toys R Us she took off on this bike and rode around the aisles and the people with stunning grace and agility. Needless to say we bought the bike for her right away. For only $30 you get top-of-the-line quality and a bike that will grow with your child for years to come. I bet it will last a long time and work perfectly for my 2-month-old several years from now as well. The best bargain toy you will ever find.

This review is from: Ex Kiddio Supertrike 1 (Toy)
I bought this trike for my 2 year, but she barely reached the pedals. She's pretty tall for her age, about 34 inches. So, I tried to adjust the seat forward. No can do. The seat is made of plastic molding, and it did not fit properly when the seat was adjusted forward. I couldn't even get the seat's bolt to aligned with the frame's bolt hole. Ok, so maybe we'll wait until she grows a bit. But, the trike has other annoyances...the handle bar does not stay in position. It rotates off-centered with the slightest movement. I have to re-center the handle bar every few minutes. The reason the handle bar shifts all the time is because it is held by u-shaped clamp that's fastened together by a tiny screw. Picture a 10-foot Christmas tree (the handle bar) being clamped by a 1-inch clamp, fastened with a 1/4 inch screw. See how long the tree stays straight. More annoyances, the handle bar didn't fit properly with the U-shaped clamp. I had to widen the clamp with makeshift tools, using pliers with one hand and a metal bar with the other. Don't waste your money on this product. The colors are nice, and the German heritage sounded promising, but there are no signs of precision in this trike.
