Radio Flyer Air Ride Balance Bike, Toddler Bike, Ages 1.5-5 (Amazon Exclusive), Toddler Bike

2 year old loves it. It is still slightly too big for him to sit on the seat, but he loves walking around with. It is great that he will have something to grow with him for awhile.

Our bell was broken and you can push it on but every time the bike is laid down it falls off. Also, it was covered in a strange rust or mud under the plastic cover. It’s as if moisture got in and rusted the inner handles and the rust dust blew out all over bc the bars. Idk that’s my best guess. It wiped off but I think it’s rusted inside.

I got this for my 2 year old nephew, hes big for his age and this was still to big for him, but I believe the box says 2.5-5 years. Hell be the perfect size for it in the spring when the weather is nice, so mom and dad appreciated the early birthday present. I love the fact that these are a thing now, and a great alternative to a trike, and this teaches children about balance and makes it a lot easier for them to transition to a real bike when they get older, in some cases Ive heard the kids skipped training wheels entirely when they started with this. The construction is very sturdy. Rubber, air filled tires which is uncommon for kids stuff like this. Heavy duty metal construction with good welds, almost no plastic on it anywhere. Seat actually has padding and is wrapped in vinyl. The seat uses a quick release to adjust the height, and the handlebars can be adjusted with a wrench as well, meaning the bike will still be good as they get older. This is really a solidly constructed kids bike that I feel confident will still be in great shape even after your child grows out of it, in which case itll still bring joy to the next child it finds its way to.

I get that this isnt a $90 Strider. But having put one of those together recently, versus what I dealt with putting this one together... well Radio Flyer could have made theirs a little better without a ton of extra effort or cost. Ultimately, as a balance bike its going to work very well. So its probably closer to a 4 on value and a 2-3 on assembly. As for why I dinged it, well the alignment of handlebars and wheel while tightening it is cumbersome at best, ridiculous at worst. Strider has this right, you slip the steerer tube from the fork and the shaft from the handlbars together and put a pin through them. That way it will always be 100% straight. Then when you tighten it down you can simply worry about only fastening the parts together. This bike needs 4 hands to be done right and a ratchet set on top of that. You have to hold the fork and handlebars tightly together while turning two bolts and not allowing the handlebars and fork to separate and become loose in the headtube, or have them twist and become misaligned. Not a great design there guys. Once I got it in place it was fine and the bike is very good for what it was meant for. I just wish some extra effort was put in place for alignment and adjustment. Really unnecessarily complex for the ONLY thing that has to be done to put the bike together.

Our 3 year old grandson loved it!

I bought this for my youngest and she loves it.. she rides it around the house. The bell is a fun addition to the bike and fun for her to ring. My oldest also likes to get on it when it is not being used.... would recommend for a family and great for inside and outside use

Sturdy and excellent quality for reasonable prices.

This balance bike is perfect for my three and a half year old little boy. My husband put it together very easily in just a few minutes. It seems to be good quality. I love the classic look and the sweet bell.

This bike was easy to assemble and is well made. The seat and handle bars are adjustable to change their height quickly with the release of a lever. My 4 year old daughter is extremely tall for her age (about 44 inches tall) and this bike, at its tallest setting, is borderline too small for her. I wish they came in a slightly bigger size for tall kiddos. Otherwise, this is helping her learn how to balance well in preparation for her big-girl-bike. All kids should start with this after a tricycle instead of a small bike with training wheels! It does not have pedals and is propelled by the childs feet. Training wheels do nothing to teach the balance that is needed to ride a bike, and it was terrifying to my daughter to take them off once she was used to riding with them. I highly recommend this bike for a child that is too big for a tricycle but too small for a bike without training wheels.

Our son loves this bike. We gave it to him for his second birthday, and we cant keep up. Hes rode it every day for a month, sometimes multiple times a day. Hes shorter than most, and the seat goes down far enough for him. The seat can go much higher which makes us happy as to not need to replace it like we do shoes. I highly highly recommend. Best balance bike ever seen.
