Great purchase for the little ones. Good height and safe but fun speed.

The truth is, 12 volts is just not enough. You could overvolt this bike by replacing the lead acid battery with a power tool battery. You can buy power tool receivers that act as a power supply and you can install it right into your child's toy along with the power tool battery. That way you can swap out the batteries when they go low. You can charge them quickly on a speed charger. I have found 18 Volt Ryobi batteries that contain nine amp hours for as low as $30 on Amazon. This would be a huge upgrade for this bike. You would need to buy the ryobi adapter receiver, which generally run about $7 apiece. And when you include the $30 battery it's a pretty good upgrade. Especially if you get a couple of batteries. Otherwise, I would suggest finding a bike that already has a lithium battery. Lead acid is very heavy and is susceptible to damage. If the child uses the bike as intended the battery will be destroyed quickly. We chose to return these bikes and have replaced them with bikes that have lithium batteries and other upgrades such as suspension and higher voltage. For about the same money we were able to find a bike that has 36 Volts with a lithium battery and a true throttle which is not just an on/off switch.

I works well but unfortunately we didn’t expect it to be as small as it is. It was a birthday purchase for my 7 yr old grandson. Returning it tomorrow to find something a little bigger.

Perfect for my kids ages 4-6. Bike was easy to assemble and charge. Battery last about 45 mins. We bought the bike for my kids to learn to balance and ride before we upgrade to bigger.

My son loves his bike he’s 7yrs old I only got this smaller one to see how he’ll do on a bigger one but he’s never get off of it. The only complaint I have is the charger, I do suggest the getting a warranty!!! And super easy to put together!!

If your scared to start your kids off with anything gas powered buy this ! This will help build confidence teach motor skills and practice until they get the real deal. For being electric it goes the perfect speed for the kids! Not to slow but not extremely fast! If you ever run into a problem where it won't drive, check the chain. Many people don't realize that's all it is. Only happened once. My other child got on it when he shouldn't of haha.

My grandson eyes lit up. He’d been asking all year. I’m glad he’s enjoying his new bike.

Purchased for my 7 year old son's birthday. He still isn't riding a 2 wheel bike so this was perfect for him to learn on because it's small enough that he can just put his feet down if he loses balance. Doesn't move great on grass but it is great for beginners who can ride around the driveway or our neighborhood. My son loves it but he will likely outgrow it quickly

My daughter loves it. The battery does not last longer than 40 minutes. We bought a converter kit so we can swap out drill batteries so she can have linger rides. She is 8 years old. I think she will out grow this in a year or two tops
