Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was going to give this bike fewer stars after struggling for hours to put it together (awful instructions, missing screws, etc.), but now that we've had it for several weeks, wow, this trike is great! We bought it for our 16-yr old daughter who has Down syndrome. She never cared for the 2-wheel bike with training wheels she's had for years. I'm guessing it was just too much to worry about keeping the bike upright while coordinating pedaling and braking and everything else. This bike is PERFECT for her! She all of a sudden loves biking and asks to ride it every day. Any time the family goes out--to a restaurant, shopping, walking the dog, etc.--she asks if she can ride her bike. It's great! Next purchase will be a bike rack for the car so the family can go on biking adventures together. When folded, the trike does fit in my little car (Nissan Leaf) with the back seats folded down. Also, to make it fit, the handlebars need to come off, which is fine because they have a quick-release mechanism. (The seat is also quick-release, which is handy, since all of our daughter's friends are wanting to try out the trike and it's easy to raise the seat.) I'm glad we got the 16-inch and not the 20-inch. It's plenty big. My daughter is 4'8 and 100 pounds and she uses the seat at its lowest level. And kids/adults much taller fit on it fine with the seat raised.
