5Decently buit bike
By D. Hauser
Was looking for a quality tyke bike. Am satisfied with the purchase of this one.Only drawbacks I found on this were:** Tacky decals (which easily peel off)** White tires (which do not stay white for long).** Loose wheel spokes (tighten while assembling.... most bikes come that way out of the box so it isn't a problem unique to this bike)On the plus side:** Has a coaster brake. Liked the look of the Red Ryder, but that one has no brakes.** Full chain guard. Cheaper bikes seemed OK, but most had no chain guards. Fingers and an open sprocket/chain does not seem a good combination** Ball bearings in all the right places. Maybe the factory lube is good (?), but I redid them with synthetic lube to be sure.** Heavy duty build. Good welds and apparently beefy tubing in the frame. Weighs a little more than the cheap bikes for that reason, but it isn't heavy.Overall, a good choice for a bike and at a decent price.

2It's the shipping company's fault...
By Maximus
My wife & I searched around on the internet for a good toddler bike for our 3-yr old. We were willing to pay a little more for a decent bike so her sister would be able to use if a few years later.Received package on date as promised. When I started to put it together, found these little gems:1. Front forks were too close together, so the front axle wouldn't even fit in the drop outs.2. both plastic fenders were distorted so they rubbed the tires.3. chain guard rubbed the chainring because the plastic was distorted.4. Front tire inner tube valve malfunctioned so it wouldn't even hold air pressure - essentially a flat tire.5. Rear wheel cassette was so tight that rear wheel wouldn't even rotate freely.6. Cosmetically, scratches on the frame and stickers either coming off or placed crooked.7. Not that it was needed, but there were no assembly instructions in the box for those not too familiar with bikes. There is a general owners manual that doesn't even cover the specific model we purchased. Fortunately, there is nothing complex about a toddler bike.Since I didn't have certain tools to fix some of the major problems, took it to a local bike shop to fix.When I called CycleSource LLC, left a message regarding my concerns. The customer rep, Steve (515-232-9446), who was nice enough, essentially told me that it was the shipping company's fault and they do not ship out inferior products. Offered help in putting the bike together, but would not replace any of the defective parts.My advice is to find a local dealer and make a more informed purchase there, if for nothing else, safety for your little one. Kawasaki may produce a quality product (I've owned one of their bullet bikes for years), but you wouldn't know it from our scraps of metal. Our next purchase will be a Kettler, Schwinn, or Specialized from a dealer.

3Was a lot of work...
By Meredith Peyser
This bike looked amazing in the amazon picture, but in real life the manufacturer does a pretty poor job with the little extras that make it look cool. The little mud fenders are horrible.They make so much noise rubbing, that you need to take them off all together. Also, the parts on the bike had dings that we had to paint, so that it wouldn't rust in those spots. The actual process of putting the bike together is fairly long, and tedious. My daughter loves to ride this bike, but I would have bought a different model had I known the headache putting it together was going to cause.
