Pros: 1. So Lightweight it is easily controlled by an average 2 year old. 2. Hand brake is essential to me to teach that skill early. 3. Solid construction is perfect. Cons: 1. expensive if you’re buying this to teach balance in preparation for a pedal bike. Your child may learn so fast they don’t use it very long! Probably has great resale value, though, as it is so well made. 2. On level ground, once balance is mastered, it is hard to get any speed to coast for very long without using your feet to push again. This is why my daughter wanted a pedal bike, because it is not designed for much speed on level ground. And obviously, it does not go uphill at all. Read more...
After getting a bike stolen, I started looking for some decent U-locks. Since I sometimes lock up two mountain bikes at a time, I needed one with a long shackle. The two best on the market are the Kryptonite New York LS, and the OnGuard Brute LS. The Brute is considerably cheaper, so I decided on the Brute.
As other reviewers have noted, the new, improved version I received differs from the photos on Amazon. I also noticed that the packaging markets this lock to motorcycle/scooter users, not to bicycle users. As a result, no bicycle frame mount was included. I’ve read reports of OnGuard’s bike mount being flimsy and quickly breaking, so the lack of their mount is no big loss. I have a few TwoFish LockBlocks and BikeBlocks that I can use instead, and they are very durable solid rubber mounts. Read more...

Our son is on the tall side, but when he got this for his 5th birthday he couldn’t quite reach the ground. So, instead of trying it out and having a good time with his new and, let’s face it, expensive bike, he kept riding his trike for a while. But, he’s grown a little bit and now he feels more comfortable with it.
The hand brake. Ok, shoot me if you like it, but I don’t. I find it distracting for our son who is insistent on using it, even though he really should be focusing on the foot brake.
It is a bit heavy for a little kid to really manuever around. This is a con if he knocks it down or tries to drag it uphill (or if I have to walk with him to keep him from going too fast downhill). Read more...
