Review on JOYSTAR 14/16 Inch Balance Bike For Toddlers And Kids Ages 3-8 Years Old Boys And Girls - Sport Kids Balance Bike With Handbrake - No Pedal Training Bicycle by Rick Turner

The balance bike is sturdy and great for my girls but we purposely bought it so that we could have the handbrake and it doesn’t work. It came broken which is really frustrating. It was already put together at the brake area so I think it was simply made poorly. You squeeze the brake and the wire won’t do what it’s suppose to. Pops out the side. The girls pick up speed on this bike and have to use their feet dragging on the asphalt to stop. If I’d have known the brake doesn’t really work I’d have purchased a different one but I liked the idea of getting one with a brake when we upgraded from our toddler one.EDIT: customer service was excellent as they refunded the price to cover a new brake on the bicycle and they handled it very quickly.
