Review on Introducing the M-Wave Child's Wooden Running Bike (Police): A Fun and Safe Ride for Your Little One by Larry Willis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great price for a wooden bike, screws need improvement

I bought this wooden bike for a preschooler. In less than a year I have had to replace the bolts on the steering wheel assembly with the front wheel 3 times. We used a similar wooden balance bike from Germany to teach a whole neighborhood of kids (over 6 preschoolers in one month) how to ride a two wheeler and we never had to repair a single part. This bike required a special air pump because the inlet gauge is very close to the spokes. Our other pump does not fit. We bought a box of hex head screws from Home Depot and needed each one to replace the broken ones. The blue button on the handle broke off after repeatedly falling on the pavement when our little one jumped off the bike to pursue another thought. The seat is difficult to move up and down, which requires two hex screwdrivers and the removal of two screws. This makes it difficult to share with children of different heights. I would pay more for a balance bike with less maintenance and an easy seat adjustment if I had to do it over and over again.
