Very strong and sturdy-beautiful!

We got this for or 2-1/2 yr old grandson. Price was reasonable and assembly went ok despite there being no assembly instructions in the box. Before tightening the few fasteners, I checked online and found a video showing how to assemble, just to be sure I had everything correct. Good, sturdy, metal frame first bike with a little storage trunk on the back. Don't forget to get a helmet.

Fairly easy to put together. My child has shorter legs and is not able to reach big wheel pedals yet. Purchased this, so they can start learning how to use pedals and then can grow into the big wheel. The seat has two positions. With position, my child can reach the pedals, hooray!

Update: This little trike is still in good shape 3 years in The splash guard on the front is always slipping sideways, I almost wonder if it would make more sense to not install it all. Our 2nd kid is now the same age (25 mo.) as our 1st was when I wrote the initial review Once again the Micro scooter is the favorite, but, this bike is a solid second choice and offers a different riding experience. While both on the tall side, she is a bit taller than her sister (90% vs 80%) and is able to pedal independently (forward and backward) 100% of the time. So, if you have a taller kid; 2 is about the right age for this one.Previous. review: This is a great product, however, if you are trying to decide on only ONE riding toy- I strongly recommend the Micro "mini" kickboard scooters. We bought a refurbished one of the company website and it has been our daughter's favorite toy for 9 months strong. In fact, I just bought an adult version because, at 2 yrs, she is so fast on it that I was struggling to keep up with her. (Another friend bought a Little Tykes version for her 2yr old and it is CLEARLY inferior- so spend the extra cash on the Micro for sure.)Now, about this trike: I bought this for our then 20 month old because it was very similar to the one my neighbor's kids would ride and our daughter would always try to steal it when she saw it. She loves it (just not as much as the Micro). Initially, she would walk it with her feet but, because the wheels are "fast," she was soon able to almost run with it. Now, at 25 months, she has learned to start pushing the pedals maybe 30% of the time. Older kids in the neighborhood (4yr +/-) seem to like borrowing this one for a spin around the block now and then, too. Only issue we have had with it is the splash guard on the front wheel occasionally slipping loose and sliding sideways or the "trunk" popping up off the back bar. Both are easy to snap back in place.For reference, she also has a Strider balance bike. The balance bike is good for her, but she is just now learning to bear her weight on it and "glide" every few steps. In order of preference it goes: Micro Mini, Radio Flyer Trike, the Strider bike.As I said, this trike is VERY similar to ones my neighbor's girls had from when her oldest (5 yr) was little and has since passed down to the younger girl (3yr). Both older girls say that this one is "faster" than the previous model. I attribute that to the wheels being different. So, if you are debating buying a used one or spending a little extra for the newer one- go new.

Red Ryder makes a high quality product, constructed of mostly metal, with only a few plastic parts. My granddaughter loves this trike. She especially likes the storage bin on the back for carrying things. It was fairly easy to put together. We actually got it for her second birthday, but she had difficulty riding it then - but now that she is 3 she has mastered pedaling and loves it.

First off, my daughter loves this bike. It's a bike, bikes are fun! She enjoys the compartment in the back, that's where her toys go 😊The seat has two adjustments, so as she gets bigger it can grow a little with her. Overall, I think this is a great gift for kiddos.The downside and the only reason I did not give five stars: building this bike was a complete pain in the butt. The instructions were not always clear or easy to follow AND there are some parts you are required to use a hammer for... which sucks because it scratches the paint.

Purchased for Christmas. Age range suggestion is perfect. Worth the price. Seat easily adjusted. Kids love the bike. Comfortable ride.

This trike is a timeless favorite! It’s well-built, easy to assemble, and the size is just right for my 3-year-old. The seat is adjustable so it can grow with your child, and the ride is smooth and stable. My little one loves the storage compartment in the back — perfect for toys or snacks on the go. The design is simple but durable, and it’s a great way to build confidence before moving to a two-wheeler. A fantastic first tricycle and a great value!
