Schwinn Roadster Tricycle

My grandson who will be two in one month loves his new bike. He is tall for his age so he can reach the peddles, but he is not able to actually ride it yet . He has not ouite figured out how to push the… peddles correctly to ride. Any day now he will put it together and take off riding. Meanwhile he is having fun sitting on it , being pushed around ect. We are very happy with the quality and the look.

Definitely a cool trike. Got it for my son's 2nd birthday and he initially had trouble reaching the pedals (and he's a tall guy - at the 90th percentile for height), but enjoyed pushing it with his feet on… the ground. Now that he is three, I've observed that he does have an easier time pedaling other trikes - I'm not sure if it is the air tires or the "low rider" build of this trike, with the pedals more out in from of him rather than under his body. I like that it is low and hard to tump over. It has put up with some abuse and still looks great! Tires seem to slowly leak air requiring fillups every few weeks. There were also a few scratches on the wooden piece (when it was brand new) on the back that I probably could have called and gotten replaced, but never got around to that since it had no impact on function and I knew my little guy would eventually be playing hard on it!

I got this tricyle for my 3 yr. old for Christmas...it was a little big, but he has now grown into it and I would recommend this item. The price easily compares to what you find at Target or Walmart for… similar items and, frankly, this one is better all-around than the ones I found at those places. I was looking for a trike that had an old-fashioned 50's look about it and this one fits that description perfectly and is also quite sturdy.
