  • Perfect first bike
Color: Orange Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
My two-year old son recently received this bike for Christmas, and we all love it. Here are multiple reasons why: First, I wanted a quality toddler bike that does not promote any characters (since children tend to grow out of their obsessions) and one that was unisex. All of the Huffy 12-inch bikes were covered in characters, so this Schwinn bike was the winner. The color is more of a burnt orange rather than a red, but it's not blatantly boy and could definitely be used for a girl (since I'm not fond of purchasing everything in pink or purple for girls). Second, I read other reviews describing how helpful the posterior removeable steering handle is, but until my son actually sat on the bike, I didn't realize how absolutely necessary and helpful this handle is for parents of first-time bike riders. My son is very short, but his feet can reach the pedals with the seat all the way down. However, he cannot yet pedal but can still enjoy riding this bike due to the helpful posterior handle. For adults the handle is a blessing because one does NOT bend over uncomfortably the entire time while pushing. The handle allows for easy, smooth, comfortable steering and safely helps guide a toddler who'd rather steer himself. We have comfortably been able to push our son for as long as he'd like around the house or down the sidewalk only because of this handle. Even my father with Parkinson's loved pushing my son around only because of the handle which gave my father support and easy maneuverability. No other 12-inch bike had such a handle, and now that we have a first bike with a handle, I would never consider a first bike without one. Third, the bike chain is completely enclosed. The Huffy bike chains only have a guard on the upper part of the chain, but this Schwinn bike's chain is completely enclosed. And I much appreciate this safety feature since I have an extremely curious toddler who would absolutely explore a dirty exposed chain if there was one. Fourth, this bike includes a bell, and my son loves ringing it as he's riding. Fifth, the seat is an appropriate size for a toddler who is any size. Lastly, the bike was easy and relatively quick to assemble, and the parts are durable and strong. ... show more

  • Awesome bike
Color: Blue Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
This is the perfect beginner bike. I ordered this for the handle to push him uphill when tired. The handle actually can steer the bike too. What an amazing design. Schwinn for the win!!

  • Great bike for toddlers, except for the pedals
Color: Orange Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
This is a great bike for a young bike rider, but not everything is awesome. As long as your kid is at least 34" they should be able to ride it (peddling takes practice though) Pros: 1. The handle for the parent/ older kid is awesome. Helpful for when the toddler gets tired as well as helping/correcting the steering 2. The seat lowers all the way down unlike some that still keep an inch of bar showing so it works for kids slightly shorter than most 12" wheel bikes 3. The handle in the back is relatively easy to remove and replace when needing to toss it in a trunk to take the bike to a park 4. The water bottle holder holds most toddler size drink bottles, you don't have to use the water bottle it comes with Cons: 1. The bell is junk. But a better one (ours broke within 24hrs of toddler play) 2. The training wheels ride a little high, even in the lowest position, so the bike feels like it will tip easy (doesn't really though) and wobbles a bit more than I would like. 3. The pedal will not stay on!!! Biggest complaint and reason for not giving a 5⭐️ Constantly having to tighten the pedals on both sides. They are tighter on the side near the pedal rather than the side near the screw end so gradually over a couple days of use the pedals start unscrewing from the bike and you have to tighten them both back up again. Very annoying and my 2yr old isn't even doing major distance yet. ... show more

  • Well constructed bike
Color: Orange Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
The bike took a little time to put together but once done, it rode well and my grandson enjoyed it. Having the handle in the back to direct the bike was great since he is only 2 1-2 years old.

  • Not worth the money. Steering Handle will last 2 weeks at most
Color: Orange Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
This is my second time purchasing this bike. The first bike I purchased it as an open box deal. OK, I know what you’re thinking, but I always purchase things as an open box deal and never had any issues. So I get the bike and put it together and it works perfect. I use it a total of 3 to 4 time, 30 mins ant most each time and the steering handle stops working. I called customer service at Schwinn and the lady was very nice and I explained to my problem and she advised the problem could not be fixed and I should just send the bike back to to Amazon for a replacement. I went through all the trouble of disassembling the bike and sending it back to Amazon. Also had to go And through the trouble of trying to locate a box to ship it in since I threw away the old box because I wasn’t Expecting to have to ship the bike back in less than three a few week. On to the second bike…. This time I spend the extra money. I think it was about $190 to be exact. I get the new bike and put together and my son is extremely happy again. Now…my son is three years old and he’s autistic so he still can’t pedal or steer the bike so having the push handle with steering capability is extremely important. Same problem. The new bike arrives and we have it about two weeks. We still only get very limited use out of the new bike. We both work full time hours and only have a few hours a few days a week to push him on this bike. If I had to guess, I’m positive we haven’t used this bike more than 3 hours in total and the steering handle is already messing up again. It’s not even functional. This is the biggest waste of money. I’m so ready to send this back to Amazon because for this amount of money, this bike should function until at least my son grows out of it. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY My son will be so disappointed when he comes home and see the bike gone but this bike cost too much to be junk. Y’all can do better ... show more
