If you can walk you can ride. The ZUM-CX balance bike is two bikes in one. In the "Low Rider" mode, the seat can be adjusted from 12 inches to 14 inches. In the "Grown Up" mode, the seat can be adjusted from 15 inches to 17 inches, therefore making this bike very flexible. Because of the versatility of this bike, you can expect years of use and enjoyment. Balance Bikes by ZUM have no pedals and no training wheels. The ZUM Bike uses a foot to floor motion as a means of propulsion. The Bike is perfect for developing coordination and balance without the anxiety of training wheels. By learning balance first, the transition from the ZUM Balance Bike to a traditional geared bicycle with pedals is made VERY easy. These bikes are constructed with the following features: 100% Clear Top Grade Birchwood - Patented steering that helps prevent Jack knife accidents - Rubber handgrips to protect little hands and the end of the handlebar from scuffs - Sealed cartridge bearings for maintenance free, silent and smooth running wheels - Rubber air inflated tires make for a smooth ride - High grade steel fasteners - Padded Vinyl Seat - Adjustable Seat Height - Non Toxic Lacquer Finish - ASTM Certified - Sustainably Harvested Wood. This bike is great for children (ages 2-6) that are just learning to ride. No peddles, and no brakes make this one of the easiest bikes for young riders to get around on. These bikes are built for years of enjoyment. www.thebalancebike.com

My 30 month old granddaughter loves it. I personally have not seen the item as it was shipped directly to my grandaughters house, however my son tells me that assembly was easy and it is a quality product. It has the versatility to "grow" as the child grows. If granddaughter is happy, grandpa is happy!

This review is from: Mongoose Girl's Maxim Full Suspension Bicycle (24-Inch) (Sports)
Bike is well suited for girls 8+ years old. The bike uses alot of steel, so it is not very light, but I have a similar Diamondback bike of similar weight so I think it is typical for this price category.
I found the bike easy to assemble, but requires some minor tuning of brakes, etc to ensure proper function.
The bike is a very good value at this price.

Schwinn Scorcher Boy's Bike (16-Inch Wheels) Reviews
Before reading this, please understand that we sold our car last summer, so our family uses bikes for every-day commuting, be it to/from work, to/from preschool, or just grocery shopping. Bikes are less "toys" for us, than hard-working transportation that must function well!
We got this for my son for the holidays, just before his 4th Birthday. There were some issues with the manufacturer that delayed shipping, but the seller made herculean (and successful!) efforts to make sure the bikes all arrived by Christmas.
My husband assembled this bike late Christmas Eve in the livingroom. While the manual was less than helpful for this (Schwinn, apparently, makes one general manual that covers all types of bikes, and therefore doesn't feel it necessary to make model-specific manuals -- or assembly instructions!), he was able to get it ready in a reasonable amount of time. Like all bikes, it comes with the tires deflated, so I had to take it to get air in them... Read more

The coaster brake causes so much drag on the hub that my five-year old has difficulty pedaling.
The bike is sturdy - too sturdy. It's too bulky and heavy to control well or get started without a push. The tires are so fat and soft they actually interfere with steering.
Like I wrote in the title: you get what you pay for. Spend the extra money - get a real bike at a real bike shop. It will make a real difference in your child's riding experience.

Our 6 years old, who is tall and well built, fell in love with those bike when we were browsing Amazon for bikes. He loved the color. The price seemed a bit high, but given the brand, we were all waiting excitedly for the bikes to arrive. Great disappointment for me: I am appalled by how heavy those bikes are, compared to bikes our son's friends have, which are not less sturdy. I should have paid closer attention to the shipping weight: 45.8 pounds !!!! I did not weigh the bike, but its probably around 30 pounds, or about half of our son's weight! He is still mastering the art of bike riding, and falling with these bikes is painful due to their heft - lots of iron for little kid's bike. Fortunately, he is not really aware of those issues, and loves the color.
