My son was gifted this trike for Christmas by his Grandmother. I can't recommend it and am embarrassed to ask my mother for a gift receipt to send it back as it's her first grandson and she was so excited about giving him his first trike. I assembled it on Christmas Eve and put it in our shed. On the morning of Christmas Day I noticed rust on the chrome parts, mainly on the pedal bars and the lugs which you will see that were hammered onto the rear axle. This was disappointing but I figured I could just take it apart and paint it so didn't feel it was a big deal at the time and put his favourite toy in the basket ready for him to come into the living room and see it. Later on Christmas day I went outside with my son and pushed him around our flat patio area on it. The handle on the rear push bar came off in my hand and was not glued on. This was pre-assembled and so it was not through my error and I am thankful I didn't test drive it on the road. I have since put adhesive inside the handle and replaced it so it doesn't come off. Also the black plastic lugs in the wheels come away, these come inserted in the centre of the wheels and when they come out make the trike and wheel wobbly. Again I needed to take the trike apart to glue them into place. I will repair it and improve it so my mother isn't upset about her gift but if I purchased it myself I would be sending it back on the basis it is poor quality with a high price tag. In short the trike looks great but it really isn't. Shame!
The chrome parts all rust very quickly The push handle is gimmick because you can’t lock the steering. So when pushing you have to make it wheelie to go where you want to go. There is no strap to hold the child on. The grip on the push handle is not stuck on and comes off in your hand. The plastic lugs in the wheels don’t stay in, I had to sand the paint off and use glue to get them to stay as otherwise they kept coming out and just pulled the paint off. When they come off the wheels go wobbly. The plastic ringer on the bell is very poor quality and snapped. The basket dries out and disintegrates. All in all this is cleverly marketed but not suitable for using outdoors or stored in a shed in UK climate. It is rusty trash in three months of Winter. It is cleverly marketed but I am extremely disappointed and would discourage anyone from buying one unless it is to be used indoors.
Your product is trash, it took me hours to assemble it because no part was compatible with another. Do you really test your products before selling it ??? I had to tinker and remove a metal part but what a hassle, I'm scared for my child safety
Hey my daughter got the same bike. I’m having problems with the back axle. I don’t know if I was supposed to removed that mental part, cause I’m having a hard time
