RoyalBabyKids Bike EZ Freestyle Training Free Balance to Pedal Easy Learning Bicycle, 12-18 Inch for Toddlers to Big Kids

Ok let me start by saying this is the 3rd bike I have purchased for my son in the last 2 summers. I got him a Schwinn for his first bike and the part where the pedals connect to the bike fell apart after a few months of use. So I bought a bike at Walmart and that bike again fell apart the same way after a few months of regular use, not abuse. So for my son’s 6th birthday I researched on Amazon and read a lot of reviews and decided on this bike. I am so happy with this bike and my son loves it too. Let me explain.This bike is solidly built and feels very nice to handle. Set up was a breeze. The best part of this bike is the ease with my son learning to ride without the training wheels. We had him ride it like it suggests without the pedals on and after he was zooming around with the use of his legs, we popped on the pedals which is a super easy to put on and take off. After 2 days he was riding this bike without the training wheels and we are so proud. My son was so happy to be riding his bike like a big boy and can now ride with his big sister and keep up. I am so thoroughly impressed with the quality of this bike and the ease of learning to ride without training wheels. It’s worth the extra money to buy this bike versus the cheaper alternatives online. The bike is well built and should last a long time. Seats and handle bars are easy to adjust as your child grows too. The bike is super nice looking in person and certainly helps a child learn to ride without training wheels super quickly and successfully. I wish I had bought this bike the first time around as my son would surely had been off training wheels even sooner then 6 y/o. Don’t hestitate, this picky mom approves and I highly recommend this to other parents with kiddos who need a solid bike especially one for learning without the training wheels.We have had this bike for a month and my son uses it almost every day and it rides and looks just like it did when we first got it. Will update if anything changes since I rely on others reviews for making educated purchases on items.Update: We are now a little of 3 months of owning this bike and regular use. It is still holding up strong. Nothing has started to weaken or fail on us. The part where the pedals attach on to that moves the wheels with the pedal movement is still solid and sturdy. No signs of breakage like our other bikes did by this time. Still extremely happy with this bike and have recommended it to a few other parents who were happy to hear about this awesome bike. Hope this helps. 😊

My daughter was very nervous about switching from training wheels to a two wheeler. At the beginning of spring, we realized that her old bike was too small. After searching Amazon, I found and ordered this bike. So happy we did. It gave her confidence to be able to coast and get used to balancing without the pedals. When we put the pedals on, she picked it up very quickly!The only thing I would change would be to make the handle on the seat a little bigger so your child isn’t sitting on your hand while you’re trying to get them balanced and slowly releasing your hold.

The media could not be loaded.  We were starting to think our 7yo never wanted to take her training wheels off. At least that’s what she said. We had a terrible experience trying to take the training wheels off her last bike, and she never wanted to try it again. Within 5 times riding this bike without pedals, she was off on her own on two wheels. This bike is so so much easier to learn on because it allows for back pedaling to line the pedals up … something that traditional kids’ bikes with the back-brake don’t have. Having the hand brakes allows the pedals to spin backwards, which is a game changer. Once she got the hang of scooting with the pedals off, she very quickly was balancing and asking for the pedals. No holding onto the back of the seat. No running alongside her. She just got her balance, found her confidence, and took off! THANK YOU!!!

This little bike is so cute. My son got it for his fifth birthday and he is obsessed! He had a strider bike that he outgrew. I really debated which size of royal baby bike I should get (and which model). He’s kind of short but I wanted a bike that he wouldn’t outgrow too quickly. I wanted him to be able to use it right away with no learning curve either. I ended up getting the 14” bike and I am very glad I did. It’s perfect for him! The seat is lowered all the way and fits perfectly. He loves the “rocket boost” water bottle. He can use the hand brake easily and he likes ringing the bell. Overall the bike seems very well-made and sturdy. It’s heavy but no different than any comparable bikes this size. I’m impressed with the thicker tires, too. My son would ride his new bike all day if I let him!My only issue is the footrest for when it’s in balance bike mode. It sticks out way too much and he could not avoid hitting his ankle on it constantly. It really gets in the way. He gave up after 5 minutes because it hurt too much. I ended up taking the footrest off and trying to eliminate as much as I could from the “peg” that the footrest or pedal attaches to. It still sticks out a bit but he doesn’t bump his ankle on it anymore. Now he rides the bike all over the neighborhood! It doesn’t go as smooth as his strider bike, probably because it has a chain and brakes causing some friction. It’s fine, though. He’s not going at a dangerous speed down hills and ruining his shoes by using them to stop anymore. That was my main goal when I got him this bike! Soon we will put the pedals on and teach him to use the bike that way.Oh and one extra thing he loves is that the bike says “EZ” on it. His name is Ezra and he’s often called Ez so he thinks it’s so cool that his bike has his name on it!
