  • 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

  • Perfect for every stage of learning to ride
Color: Orange Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
This training bike has surpassed my expectations! It seems like everything for this age group has plastic wheels, or has trainers that aren't removable. If they do have real wheels with removable trainers, they're too big for toddlers, and don't have a parent handle. Well this little Schwinn is not only adorable, but it ticks every box for us. Our small 3 year old can reach the pedals, with no problem. After a week, he was already able to pedal himself, and knew how to backbreak! There's no handlebar break here, which is great. My two older kids had a hard time breaking the habit of using those and backpedaling instead. The parent handle is great for teaching him to steer himself, as we ride he gets a natural feel for steering. We aren't ready to take the training wheels off yet, but I imagine the parent handle helps with this too. No running alongside them, bent over, trying not to let them fall. My 3 year old loves the bell, and pretends it's his fire truck alarm! I definitely recommend this over the plastic wheeled tricycle types, this will carry you through more learning phases. ... 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!!

  • Nice bike.. but the INSTRUCTIONS
Color: Orange Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
I do really like this bike. I love that the parent handle actually turns the front bike wheel to steer. It's sturdy and good quality, I have no doubt it'll last years. I gave 4 stars because the instructions (if I can even call it that) ARE HORRIBLE. It's a mess, isn't step by step, and shows steps and pictures for like other bike models.. super confusing I couldn't use it at all. Also the water bottle is super cheap and i just threw it away. ... show more

  • Portable, grows with child, decent but not high-quality
Color: Orange Size: 12-Inch Wheels Style: Grit Pattern Name: Bicycle
I purchased this bike for my son for Christmas. He's not quite 2 1/2 and very small for his age, and he can still reach the pedals, though he hasn't quite caught on to pedaling yet. One thing I didn't see anyone mention in the reviews we read before we bought it is that the parent handle pops on and off on the fly (you don't need to screw it on and off, and it's not going to be jammed on there until the day your kid no longer needs it). In other words, you can take it off to stash the bike in your trunk on the way to the park, assuming it fits. Without the handle, it fits easily in the back of our 2010 CRV. The ugly stickers on the fenders arrived warped and dented due to mishandling during shipping (it came in its own box), but they can be easily removed, and the dents aren't a big deal. My husband spent a solid hour fixing a stuck back wheel when it arrived as well (someone less-mechanically skilled would probably have had to send it back). While the fenders are flimsy as others point out, they do serve as useful mudguards. The training wheels are extremely sturdy and hold the bike up with my son on it even when I'm not using the handle. This was way, way better than a tricycle in spite of the minor quality issues. ... show more
