My 2 year old LOVES this bike. It is a great size for a 2 year old. The bike is kind of tall compared to other trikes for this age group, so he feels like he is riding a "big boy" bike.
My husband cursed a little more than usual while assembling it, but overall the assembly process looked easy enough to me.
Highly reccomend this bike!!!!

My son loves this trike, however after converting it to a trike and adjusting the seat back and forth between the 3 available positions, he began complaining that it was hurting his lower back, he asked me to take the seat off, the next morning I discovered while giving him his bath that he had 3 nasty looking bruises on his lower back from the seat rest. Just something everyone should be aware of.

My daughter received this trike for her 2nd birthday (in pink). It is really cute and she wanted to ride it immediately. Unfortunately, even though the manufacturer claims it is appropriate for a two year old, it is way too big. She can just reach the pedals, but not turn them. She is in the 98% in height so I can't imagine there are many two year olds who this would work for. Buy a smaller trike for a two year old.

I recently bought this at Toys R Us for my four year old son and he's been having a blast with it. He's on the small side (36" and 30lbs) and he's had a lot of trouble reaching the pedals on some tricycles and small bikes with training wheels set on the lowest setting.

I read a lot of helpful reviews on all the trikes and bikes on Amazon.com and saw how this model got high marks. I wanted to make sure my son could reach the pedals and ride on it before I went ahead and bought one, so we headed to Toys R Us and hopped on a display model. He could reach the pedals whether we had in the tricylce or the big wheel/"chopper" mode and he biked around the display area with no problem. It was a proud moment for me, since all his little friends (who are all about a head taller than him) have no problem reaching pedals and riding their big-kid bikes around.

The store had none in stock so I asked if they'd sell me the display and they did. They wouldn't give me a discount since the display was pretty new but they usually charge $10 for in-store assembly, but they would just charge me the regular price. Not a great leap in customer service, but I didn't care. It was $59.00, which seems like a lot to me for a plastic bigwheel, but since we have THREE other trikes and bikes sitting in the garage that he can't ride or reach the pedals, it was worth every penny.

He's starting to build up more and more momentum each time he rides and it's very sturdy, no to mention so easy to twist and flip into the different positions.

Highly reccomded!

The trike was for our 3 year old grandsons birthday and he absoultely loved it. It proved to be a hit in both positions although at 3 his legs are a little short for the "big wheel" position. He will surely be able to grow into it and have many years of enjoyment.

The grandson I purchased this toy for has really enjoyed it so far and it seems to work well...we switched it from bigwheel to tricycle-easy enough. The big wheel was oversized for him at 4yrs and he complained of it hurting his back even is the closest of the 3 positions. The trike is just perfect. The white inside of the front wheel rim does not stay in place and we have not been able to snap it back to where it will hold itself in place. This does not affect the function or rideability, but when you purchase an item, you don't want it defected.

Parent's please be careful! We got this trike for our daughter for her 3rd birthday ans I was so excited for her to use it... Well when she got on the trike, and was just sitting there, the trike proceeded to tip over- causing my daughter to fall off and bust her lip open. Not exactly a great way to celebrate your birthday! I ended up taking her to the ER because I couldn't tell where the blood was coming from at first and wasn't sure if the fall had knocked a tooth loose. Thankfully she was wearing a helmet and was ok- just a big hole in her lip. Take it from me- search for a better (safer) trike!

We sent this to our 2 year old grandson in California. His father assembled it for him (with his help, of course)... the Trike looks like a lot of fun, unfortunately our little grandson cannot reach the pedals at this time. He promised to grow into it... then I'm sure it will be lots of fun for him!!

We have had so much fun with this bike. My father bought one for my daughter 3 years ago and we are still enjoying it. I had to buy another one for my house because my son wanted one! The bike grows with the child by tuning in to a big wheel. Great Bike!

I think this is a great concept. My 4 year old fell in love with it immediately. Unfortunately, I noticed the handle bar portion of the bike is tilted to the left (from the child's point of view while riding). I took a closer look at the bike and noticed only the left side of the front tire was getting any wear and tear. Has anybody else noticed this problem?
