A Bike for your Princess, July 15, 2007
This review is from: Huffy Disney Princess Girls' Bike (16-Inch Wheels) (Sports)
I bought this bike for my daughter's 4th birthday. She loves Disney Princesses, and pink is her favorite color. I guess this is typical for most girls her age, so my guess is that if your daughter is like mine, she, too, will LOVE this bike. It is covered in Disney Princesses, sparkly jewels, and flower decals. The giant pink things in the wheel spokes are sparkly pink gems ( it's hard to tell that from the picture.)
My husband put it together with just a few tools, and it seemed to go together fairly easily. I guess it took about 1/2 an hour, and I had to help a bit with holding things while he tightened them. The directions were a bit wordy, I prefer ones that show more pictures, and have fewer words. And the instruction booklet has several different styles of bikes listed, with various differences in accessories and parts. So you need to read through to find the correct style/model for this bike. But once you have it put together, your little girl's dreams of a big girl bike will come true!
It is very sturdy, and solidly built. I'm sure it will still be looking good long after she outgrows this size bike. The tassels on the handle bars might not last that long, as it seems they break off fairly easily.
My bike came from FogDog, which I have never heard of. It was delivered quickly, and with no problems. So I have no qualms about ordering from this company again. They also had free shipping, and no taxes, so I paid the price listed, and nothing more. It arrives in a box which is covered in Princesses and shows the bike, so if it is to be a surprise, you may want to be aware of this.
So, in conclusion, I give this bike 5++ stars, and 5 stars to FogDog, with 3 1/2 stars for the assembly directions ( for 5 stars they need to have instructions written for this specific model, without all the different models included. )

item great, directions alittle fuzzy, July 26, 2007
This review is from: Huffy Disney Princess Girls' Bike (16-Inch Wheels) (Sports)
The bike is great! My daughter loves it- sparkles and all, and I love the bag that she can put her rocks and flowers in as we ride along.
The directions required a little thinking and problem solving, as the brake installation instructions were unclear to me.

Get this bike!, January 2, 2008
This review is from: Huffy Disney Princess Girls' Bike (16-Inch Wheels) (Sports)
This is an excellent bike! It was easy to assemble and the quality seems to be just fine. I was considering buying each of my daughters an (expensive) Trek bike from one of our local bike stores. After thinking about it, though, I decided to buy this one instead since I thought she would grow out of this size bike after just a year or so. I try to buy high-quality products, which is why I was considering the ($150+) Trek. But I'm really glad we decided on this one. For a little girl's bike, this one is just perfect. For the money, it was a great buy. My girls love to put things in the pouches that are attached to the front of the bike. I think the bikes are prettier in person than online, too. If you're considering a bike for your little girl, I highly recommend this one!
