Review on Schwinn Koen Boys SmartStart Wheels by Eric Kim

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Potentially dangerous. Not recommended. Not sure.

I bought this bike for my son in June and initially he really liked it. It's been four months now and the brakes don't work anymore. Luckily my son found the broken brakes in the driveway and not on the street as that would have been very dangerous. I figured that by buying Schwinn instead of one of the cheaper brands I would be getting a quality product but that doesn't seem to be the case. When buying a bike for a child, safety is the number one concern and this bike falls short. It is absolutely unacceptable and very unsafe for a children's bike to fail the brakes after 4 months of operation. Be careful. I hope children will not be hurt by this bike.

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • weak
