I'm surprised by the positive reviews on this bike, especially regarding stability. You can stand next to it and tip it over without much effort since it has such a slender frame and tiny rear wheels. Being maneuvered by a top-heavy toddler, it's not stable at all, especially compared to other toddler bike designs. For an otherwise very strong and athletic kid, it surprises me that my son has trouble with this bike, but maybe it is because he's also very tall? Not sure, but I have to be right next to him as he plays with it in case he takes a tumble and now I definitely need to go out and get a helmet for him. I thought he could putter around the house on it for fun, but not so much.This is a trike with one of the lowest weight capacities of any I've seen. Even if it "expands" in size, the bike probably won't support a growing child weight-wise. And frankly, the skinny seat doesn't look as comfortable (or as healthy - for a boy, anyway) as a number of other options out there. I'd personally also prefer a removable handle, so will probably go get a version with one of those. Even from the same company, they have a model that is lower to the ground with a wider wheel base, a larger seat, a removable handle and also a much higher weight capacity.
All in all, very disappointed with this one and wish I had done more research before buying what looked like a cute little toddler bike. And I now see that Radio Flyer has drastically cut the price on this particular model, so I wouldn't be surprised if they are getting rid of it.
