Dangerous for children.

"The front wheel is so out of round that you either adjust the brakes so they rub all the time, in which case the poor kid finds it nearly impossible to pedal, or adust them so far back that they dont stop the bike cause they dont contact the wheel but 10% of circumference. Our dealer said "TOUGH. That's the way these bikes are." In other words UNSAFE for children...." Read Full Review »

"I use these things as Pastrana does minus the jumping. We Have been using these to downhill drift corners and we purchased 5 of them. My only complaints are that the brakes on all of them are gone (this is to be expected) and that there are no replacement wheels avalible. In just 3 short days the …"  Read Full Review »
