Title: How About Some Brakes?!
Review: I bought this bike at Toys R Us for $69 with a $10 assembly fee.For $79 this is a cheap bike, with cheap components...including very very very cheap brakes. I spent over an hour adjusting the brakes (which may have been designed by Martians since they are extremely flawed in design and convenience here on earth) on this bike and even with them seemingly working perfectly, you cannot lock either the front or rear brakes. My son can't even skid the back tire on dirt!Perhaps the rubber material is too hard to bite the rim surface? They seem to slide along too easily.The shocks are also very suspect, but a bit of silicone spray seemed to smooth the motion for now.If you need a bike for a kid to thrash on for a year or so, you can't really go wrong for $79 but you may need to upgrade the brakes for safety reasons, which will add a few bucks to your investment.
