La bicicleta es preciosa, a mi hijo le encanta. Es un poco pesada pero nada fuera de lo común. Me gustaría que tuviera doble freno de mano pero es una bicicleta muy bien lograda. Vale la pena comprarla.

Three year-old grandson, enjoying the bike

My son LOVES this bike. It is AMAZING!!!

Beautiful bike, but I make a mistake with the size, was too small for my grandson, for a 5years old you should buy a 16”. He loves it anyway.

This bike is a boy’s dream! Pretty easy to assemble however there are no tools included, like most bikes. You’ll need plyers, wrench, and hex wrench. It also does not include the “lithium grease” it recommends to use on the training wheels and handlebars. Can’t wait to see our 4 yr old grandson’s eyes when he see this!

My 5 year old got too big for his 16 inch bike, and I wanted to get an 18 inch bike. I searched a long time, looking at bike shops, outdoor gear shops, and superstores. I could not find an 18 inch bike that had a design on it that wasn't like a regular bike. My son loved his Captain America bike (his younger brother did too, and he wanted it), so I figured that I would need to buy another bike that interested our oldest son if I was to get him to leave the smaller bike behind. I had shown him some really nice regular bikes, but he did not really like them. I even thought about buying a nice single color bike that I could then turn into a Darth Vader or Stormtrooper bike. because I was getting desperate.Then I came across this bike. I showed it to him, and he said he wanted it. It was the first bike that he said he wanted, and I had already shown him like 15-20 other bikes over the course of weeks of looking. I purchased it quickly as there were only 3 left, and am glad I did.It was easy to put together, the coloring of the flat black with the shinny yellow really make it pop (my son did not want to put the foam wrapping on it because it looked so nice), and the rev grip is awesome (I had to buy one for my younger child - I reviewed that grip as well, but this one is definitely nice in my opinion). Having adjustable height training wheels is nice too (but does seem standard).What I REALLY LIKE is that this bike can be stopped with both a hand break and by doing the reverse pedal. On his old bike, my son learned to break using the reverse pedal. This one has that, but also has a hand break. When he rides this bike, I have him practice using the hand break so that he will be ready in the future for a larger bike with multiple gears that does't have the reverse pedal break. This is great. I also set the seat stem at the lowest height (with the rear reflector on it) and it fit perfectly, so at least height-wise, I think this is good long term (couple of years).I like everything about this bike, but I will say that the handlebar break definitely needed adjusting, and I wish it came with some grease for the seat and handle bar stems (I mean they oil up parts, why couldn't they have it pre-greased or add a little pack of grease?). I feel those are the two things that were lacking, but I think that these are pretty standard bike maintenance issues with any bike you buy (just be prepared to do both).An awesome buy, and I think that this will provide years of riding (until 7 plus), and if he wants the front plastic removed, or the rev grip taken off, they can easily be removed and it will still look nice after the novelty of a "kids" bike has disappeared (if it gets to that).

The bike looks cool. Unfortunately, when I got it The front rim was bent. I did not want to send it back because they were out of stock. So Had to get a hold of the manufacturer they sent me 2 new rims but they couldn’t get the red ones so they had to switch to black set. After reading more reviews, it seemed like. A few other people were having the same problem with Bent rims. Overall, the bike is nice. My son loves it.

Item arrived severely damaged and NOT in working condition. The front wheel is bent and out of round. The front brake calipers are bent to the point that they cannot function and the wheel/brakes cannot be installed properly. The front brake bolt that holds the calipers on is also severely bent so the brakes are crooked. Basically a mess on arrival. I cringe to think that the product could arrive like this and leave a kid very unhappy at Christmas time or for a Birthday. I had to get a number of tools and try to unbend the parts to get it together. It's risky but I took a stab at it to at least try to get it together while waiting on customer service to send new parts.I called Dynacraft customer service (the manufacturer) as instructed by the included documents, and they were nice on the phone. They said they only had a limited set of parts in stock. They offered to send replacement parts, no charge and no questions asked. The parts arrived a week later.HOWEVER, when I went to swap out the new parts with the damaged ones, I found that the parts they sent are not correct. They sent wrong colors across the board. Wrong wheel. Wrong tire. Wrong brakes/calipers. Right specs but wrong colors. And the rep on the phone said they only keep one version of these things in stock.The whole point of buying this bike was that my 6-year old loved the colors and the way it looks. There's no way I'm installing all the wrong parts on it and making it look ridiculous. He'd be crushed.I am going to try to salvage the bike by taking it to a repair shop to see what can be done (the things we do to make our kids happy). But, unless you like damaged bikes and having your time wasted, I would not buy this bike or any other from Dynacraft (especially online).
