Has anyone had problems with back tire locking up?

No. The only problem we have experienced is the chain popping off when going over a hard bump. We think due to the tensioner which can be adjusted.

The back wheel locked up when the chain came off. If u put the chain back on it should work again.

This is only day 3 but so far we have had no issues at all and my son has pretty much been riding it non-stop.

I recently paid my bike shop to do this, they said that due to the way the brake line is there it is tough to remove the back tire. However, they are not against doing it again, so it wasn't horrible.

I haven't had a problem with that at all, but I ride a road bike. Basically, if it were to go low enough to touch my tire it would sit right on top of my brakes rather than touch the tire. The bottom strap locks in to the top of the A-frame above the wheel and brakes, so it can't go lower than that. I think you'll be fine.

I had absolutely no problems with the tires.They rolled all the time no matter what condition of the ground. Rudolf.

No I haven't exprienced this issue. My problem was the wheel started to get very squeaky. I sprayed a little WD-40 in it & it's working fine now :-)

It happened to me once. I tightened it really well and have not had that problem again. You can use this glue called Lock- tightened and apply it to the pedal bolt before screwing it back in.

I used it last season and had no problems. the tires do have a very strong order right out of the box so I would suggest getting it well before you need it and let it out gas before you take into the woods.

Did not work at first. This is what I see!!! With the lock installed ( as instructed), if you try hard enough, you can turn the whole lock assembly which will also turn (unscrew or loosen) the lug nut, then remove the spare. This can happen because the lock housing (master lock 262DAT) is too small for some nuts. There's no clearance between the lock housing and the lug nut when it's on. Of course you can tighten the lug real tight, but you can just let the air out of the tire, then loosen the whole thing, lock and nut together. What I did was grind down the length of a lug (make a short lug) to give clearance between the lug and housing. Now, once the lock is installed, and you turn the lock assembly but the nut will not turn or loosen. So far I have not lost a spare.

I had the same thing happen. I don't recall what the issue was exactly (I was working an had a mechanic frien look at it). Turns out I had to get a new rear wheel assembly (under warranty). The new wheel worked for us. My initial thought was the battery wasn't charged enough, but it was a manufacturing issue. Hope this helps a bit. I would ask for a new wheel. I still have the old one (didn't have to ship it back. Makes me think they are well aware of the issue and don't want it either. Good news is I didn't have to pay to ship it back).

Had problem with the front wheel. It locked up several times before the ball bearings actually came out of the wheel. Amazon replaced it promptly, and we haven't had any other problems yet, but it's definitely an issue that KaZAM needs to address in production.

I am so sorry, I have never had that problem. I would have a Schwinn expert help you with that. Sorry, and best wishes.

Personally, I have not had a problem with it in that capacity. My main issue is that the chuck doesn't want to engage/disengage. Many times I had to use a wrench to unlock the chuck.

If you are having this issue, go to Walmart or an auto parts store and buy a small tube of lock tight. This will stop that from happening. I have put over a thousand miles on my bike and the pedals have never needed to be tightened.

Our tires in the back wore out within months. I replaced them with Schwalbe kid plus tires. They are more durable.

On mine I did not! Granted I'm only currently running 31's and have no issues, maybe with a larger tire but now under all driving conditions nothing affected

I haven't mounted rear tires yet. Front ones were a pain, but certainly doable. I suppose I've been dreading the job, but it really shouldn't be to bad. Try some Dawn liquid soap for a lubricant.(not to much)

That's a good question. Normally the orange lock on the back is supoused to keep engaged the pump to the bike but I was not able to do it. The only solution that I found was to hold it with one hand against the wheel and pump air with the other.
