Is the child's bike tipped back as far as it appears? It seems like it would be uncomfortable.

The bike does tip a little bit, but not to the point of discomfort. It's just enough to tip the wheel up, so only the back wheel is on the ground. We have used this now for almost 2 years and it's totally worth the investment. My daughter loved it. She's now ready to ride on her own at age 5, but this helped make her feel like a big kid until now.

Slightly, but my child has never complained of any discomfort. This is a very worthwhile product and has aided in both of my daughters cycling progression.

The front tire is only a couple inches off the ground. They didn't complain about it.

Yes. However It's a little difficult as with all of the weight in the rear, it makes the bike want to tip. My bike has a sidestand which makes it possible. It's a little tricky but I do it all the time. It is easier with 2 people.

I am not a child, but I do have the bicycle.. I am 5 ft 1 in and unable to ride an adult bike because my legs are very short due to rickets as a child. My balance is also not that good. My husband has my seat adjusted and replaced the original seat with one that was wider for more balance and comfort. Make sure you have the right air in the tires..it makes it much easier to pedal. She would have to be able to pull the brakes that are on the handle bar, but it has no gears and rides very smooth. I wish we lived close by so she could try mine. I think maybe she could master this bike. It has been a joy to me since I also cannot master a two wheeler. Good luck and God Bless..

No. I'd say that's the perfect height for this bike. My kid is 44 inches tall and still loves this bike over his regular bike with pedals. I highly recommend this bike, it taught my kid how to balance on a bike in less than a week!

No I don't think so it's not really safe for kids to ride this bike. It's like a bmx bike

I find it very difficult to do so. I was very disappointed in this; but, it may be because of my height. Anytime I try to stand on the bike it feels as if it will fall over.

My two year Grandson can reach the peddles just fine. As the child grows you can adjust the seat farther back from the peddles to make room for their growing legs. This bike does not tip easily. Very sturdy bike. I have four grandchildren ages, 1,2,3,and 4. All four of them love the bike.

yes. anyone over 6 feet might find this bike to be a bit small. in my opinion.

No. We had an older kid on one side who is about 109lbs and it did not tip.

The bike doesn't have any shocks or anything, but the wheels are molded, meaning they're not inflatable tires, so they can ride over rocks and stuff, sure. The bike is also solidly constructed. My son has taken a couple spills on angled concrete with no harm to the bike (or thankfully, him!), so you should be good. It does require the rider's feet to push the bike, so your grandkids will still need to be able to push it off whatever surface they're riding on. Hope that helps.

The seat is already almost touching the frame, so I would say not much, if at all. I would add that this is not a bike you sit on like a normal bike: the child needs to be able to stand over the seat and walk or run and then sit down on the seat. If the child is too small they have to sit when they are pushing and that is not comfortable. I tried having my 4 year old use it last year but she was too small. This year, at 5, it is much better and she enjoys it.

I would say the base is wide enough the child would need to lean very far off to one side to make it even remotely possible to tip. It is very low to the ground and wide.

My Grand Daughter does not have long legs, I bought the bike for her 2nd birthday. She could reach the peddles just fine as the seat goes down pretty low. The issue that she had was reaching the handle bars when it turned, at 2 1/2 now, she can reach the handle bars with no problems.

No, not really.. I still like the bike but honestly it isn't comfortable.. Though I really don't think you will find one that is really comfortable.

I wouldn't suggest doing that. The bike is clumsy and wobbly, real hard to just push to move it out of the driveway when he leaves it laying there because it doesn't provide good balance when not actually sitting on the seat and holding both ends of the handle bars. And even when sitting on the seat the child has to work to balance it, which makes the transition to riding a regular bike easy because they've tackled this training tool. I would definitely only use this training tool as it was designed for.

The seat is not adjustable. The pedals move to provide the adjustment while using the bike function.

This is adult bike, on mine I have a child seat streapt to the back. So I could take strols around park with my doughter.
