Can you install so that each of the 16" tires touch the ground at same time. Unlevel training wheels scare my daughter; she thinks she is falling.

You can set them both to touch the ground, however, pedaling may be a little harder because of the extra friction.

Yes there is an adjustment on the training wheels to go up or down to touch the ground.

I think you may be able to do it but it would not be a good idea because uneven ground would then often cause the bike tire in back to raise above the ground, resulting in a total loss of traction.

I was not successful in doing so. I tried several times to do as you tried to do without success. No way could I three leveled together. In its recommended configeration I couldn't complete turns within an acceptional radius without crashing into the curb. The kit is hanging in my garage collecting dust. Thinking I might try making a garden cart from the pieces. Would appreciate any design ideas.

Yes, you will just need to put on the wheels' covers. I have given this presents to two kids, and they loved it!

The only wheels that aren't supposed to touch are the way front ones. The rest should touch and be level.

Yes. I have that leveling kit with that size tire and wheel. Not even close to rubbing. Looks great too.

It's surprising that nobody saw fit to provide the important details in their answers. I'm posting a proper response in case others come to look at this question: There is room at each corner for both the wooden legs and the wheels to be installed together. But the wheels are slightly taller than the wooden legs, so the wooden legs will not come in contact with the floor/carpet if they are installed together with the wheels. (They still are useful as a kind of decorative edge at the corners, however.)

Yes, but that is an expensive option. Use the composite wheels which are way less expensive and designed for that option.

Highly inadvisable...without the wheels, the entire weight would be resting on the five outer (curved) edges of the five-pronged frame. Maybe you could tape the wheels so they won't roll?

Yes be careful, the wheels are not made well and tires go flat I'm returning the one I purchased

No and it's a problem, because the pedals continue spinning, you cant fix them, so my baby was not able to hold them more than 5 min. There is great option "build a trike" on radio flyer website, so you choose footrest+all-terrain tires+everything you'd like to, even a bell.

Oh yea ,My Wife is 120 pounds and had to lean on one or the other side. Level both wheels so that the person riding the bike doesnt lean too far over, They get scared like they are going to fall if you dont. Very sturdy wheels. Great for the Handiecap. Would like to see a carbon version made.

She should be fine. We purchased the bike for my 5 yr old granddaughter and she had no problems with her feet touching the ground. The bike is beautiful and she loves it!

Yes,just don't put them on. Follow all the other instructions. It's pretty sturdy with or without wheels.

No, it should be used with all three wheels on the ground all the time. Walk fairly close to the machine with elbows bent, this way you have more control. Carole G.

There are locks on two wheels. So when you assemble make sure one of these wheels go on each side. There is no way that it will sway.

you can take the training wheels off and it'll be a bike but I don't think you can take the pedals off and make it a balance bike for one it would be too high

This is probably not the board for you then. Going slightly uphill, two pushes won't get you very far. It's something that can be adjusted if you change the wheels maybe

Shouldn't be a problem but make sure the frame is strapped securely so the wheels don't shift under the board. The wheels tend to rotate when going over an irregular surface like a curb.
