Sports reviews of Schwinn Roadster 12-Inch Trike (Pink)

Customer Review: Schwinn Trike review - read this one
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I want to share as much info as I can here, this is a great trike. Let me try to touch base with most of the questions and other reviewers comments.

First off, the product does day it's for 28" to 38" in height or something like that, my daughter is 31" and can't even pedal a full rotation with the seat all the way forward. So if you are worried about this trike being too small, worry no more, it's fine. It should be good to 40" or more.

Second, the trike is all metal, except for the seat (plastic) and the platform (wood). This is awesome for me, though some may not like it. The tires actually inflate with air, again I like this, others may not.

On that same note, several reviewers commented that their child has a hard time pedaling this because it's heavy, I have to say this is a matter of opinion but I disagree. It's not THAT heavy, in addition, this is based more on the rolling resistance anyway. These trikes sit in storage for some time before you buy it, when you get it, air up the tires, duh. The tires on my trike were practically flat, once aired up this thing rolled as easy as an expensive adult road bike.

Now, let me try to review this thing in some sort of order.

The good:
All metal construction
Adjustable seat
real tires, real wheels, etc
It just looks sweet, metal fenders, cool graphics.

The bad:
The graphics are stickers, blech.
The chrome fenders are just chrome plated so yes this trike will rust of left outside, you can't put it in your garage though? Seems like a no-brainer to me.
The child height recommendation on the box is way off, don't even bother fretting over that and just pick this up, you won't regret it.
