Does this have the same shift as the Peg Perego Gator? Can the child shift from high to low on the fly?

It does have both a high and low gear. If you have the latch undone, they can switch between the two speeds on the fly.

Sorry, this was a gift for someone else's child. I can't answer your questions.

I don't know if it's the same as the gator or not. It does have reverse gear 1 and gear 2 which u can shift as u are moving. Gear 2 can be locked out by the parent to prevent them from going as fast.

I found the ride to not change at all and I also did not have to change anything out. One thing even with the .5 Inch taller in the front is still did not level it out completely. I hope this helps

I would think so, I put this on my sons bike who was 11 but my daughter also rides it sometimes, she was 8.hope this helps. Much easier to use than grip shifts.

Hi Camila, I was very disappointed to find out that "it doesn't" the way the prior models do, which as you may know, you just pull the handle between the child's fit and adjust, that easy... this model has 3 different positions but you can only change it by removing the carseat from the seat, adjusting the new position pulling a lever from the bottom back of the carseat and then installing it again, witch is very disappointing to me, I have 4 children (always have bought Maxi-Cosi) and that was the main thing I loved about this car seats.. the child is asleep, pull and change position, the child woke up, pull and seat him/her up again, sadly doesn't work like that with this one.

I think it moves good.. Maybe not as bouncy as my jumperoo. If you are looking for a more bouncy one id recommend the jumperoo from fisherprice. This is great for moving around in there and lots of toys to play with. We used it very little though in comparison to our jumperoo. Hope that helps :)

No. The foot pegs do not get in the way of kids learning how to balance. It actually helps them. Go to Youtube and you can see videos on this. It is a great little starter bike. You also may want to buy your kid a push scooters (Radio Flyer Shockwave Scooter or any other good brand). It will help your child a lot. My oldest son learned how to ride his bike 6 weeks after riding his Radio Flyer Shockwave Scooter.

My son is 9 and 58" tail and he just is able to get is feet on the ground with the seat in the lowest position. He is still getting used to the shifting but the more he rides the better he gets.

Unless your toddler is long, probably. The foot pedal is controlled by the long handle for the guardian. As long as that long handle is attached, foot pedal won't work.

no, it moves when you press on the pedal. This is battery operated. Great for about a 2-4 year old. Any older child would get bored pretty quickly.

You do have to shift but you can put a governor in it and leave it in first gear. That's what we do with my son

A fair amount, my daughter is quite tall for 5yrs. the throttle is placed forward (right side) shouldn't be an issue. IMO pressing with the toes/ ball of the foot gives more control.

I didn't purchase the baby Einstein model because there was a recall on it when we were shopping around. I can however compare this to the fisher price rainforest jumperoo since we bought both. This discover and grow model is not as stable as the rainforest jumperoo. It tends to shake and wobble and the hard plastic hanging toys on this one hit my daughter in the head as she grew into it. The rainforest model has nice soft plush hanging toys and you can adjust the height. We bought my daughter the rainforest jumperoo when she was about 4 months old. She's 11 months old now and still loves it. I'd highly recommend that one over any of the other models. Doesn't exactly answer your question but I hope this was helpful.

It should be. my son is 8 but he is small in figure and it fits him right. I would say however that the shifts are very hard to move. this is my only drawback from the bike.

I believe the answers citing the 5 lbs min weight are correct (as per the product manual). If I am not mistaken the inclination of the seat can be modified as well. I have not personally used on my child as an infant, but only 10 months, because I had the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio before. If that seat existed when she was a newborn I would have probably bought it for one of the cars. However the Primo Viaggio was very convenient, especially when going to dinner, as we could just take the baby everywhere in the car seat and she would be very quiet. She was not big enough or had enough strenght to be in a highchair before 7-8 months. I believe the answers citing the 5 lbs min weight are correct (as per the product manual).

Not sure. We used it for our 5 yr old, who was fairly tall (he is 8 yrs old now, and about 4'8"). It IS larger than other balance bikes that are on the market, and it would hold the weight (I practiced on it, and am 135 lbs). The trick is how tall your child is, and can the seat be raised high enough to keep legs up and on the peg. If your child is tall enough, you can see about removing the pedals on a regular bike, and using the same concept (easier than you'd think). We have a son who had very difficult balance problems, and it took him only about a month. Our other son used it for only a week and a half. Good luck! Not sure.

I have a five y/o son, he is tall for his age, he can already ride a bike,skake broad and in-line skating and I also might add he can swim too. I'm pretty sure he can steer this go kart. But what I really wanted to know if there is a controled power trigger to gage his speed ?
