The brakes are loose...any ideas? We have put it together and tightened everything but it would still roll down a hill with my kids in it if I let go

I returned the stroller, so I have no idea how to help you with your problem. Sorry that I could not help.

I have not run into that problem, but have not used it very much on hills. It has been a while since I used mine, but if I remember correctly, there is a pin on the brake handle that you either push in or pull out to keep the brake in place. I will look into this over the weekend and get back to you if you are still having an issue.

The brakes on nine were too tight. I think there is a way to adjust them underneath. I have never tried though.

I don't have an answer for this...only that mine does the same. At one point mine seemed to be slowing down and then I realized that it was loose. You may want to try tightening.

The bottom rotor maybe slipping, by putting a finger against the cog and gently apply rotation to the bottom rotors if they turn try this : hold the large upper cog and push the bottom rotors (connection assembly firmly down the main shaft - it should become more snug (try the rotation test above) on the shaft and hopefully lift is restored.I think this is a deliberate design to save potential damage or harm from the bottom rotors suddenly stopping on collision, ie a bit of slip on the shaft

I had a similar problem...I would suggest making sure your not fighting gravity. Other wise then that send the damn thing back

After assembling it, I took my bike to my local bicycle shop to get everything tightened/adjusted. Several things were loose, like the gears, front brakes squeak, etc. That's what I would suggest.

We did not overly tighten ours as we didn't find a need to. We did tighten it snuggly enough so it wouldn't turn easily. It did move a bit once after it was bumped but it wasn't a problem to move it back. I would suggest you contact the company if you feel yours is having a problem..

yes, it sounds like a defective unit, it shouldn't slide as you've described it. good luck.

Yes I have the same problem. Make sure the front brake is released each time. I am considering returning stroller and requesting a new one. I actually wish I would have bought a stroller with the rubber tire like wheels.

I have not had any issue with mine...totally love it but check to see that the brake is not grabbing on that side, or that the under basket is not rubbing against the wheel

it has been a while since I bought mine but I remember when I first put it together I screwed the wheels on too tightly and I could not push it very well. I loosened the wheels and it worked fine.

We had an issue with the bike only going in reverse. We had to take the seat off and check the wiring, it was loose. I would suggest doing the same. I eventually sold the 2 I bought for $5 at a garage sale. The back wheel never stayed on. Worst money I ever spent. Good luck and I hope your child does enjoy their toy.

I'd suggest putting something under their mattress instead, if anything, try to create an incline. Mine just rolled to the other end of the bed, away from the wedge.

The gear probably has worn teeth. I had that problem but only after flying and crashing for about a month NOT right out the box. Also, check out the two axles and make sure the teeth are aligned. Tighten as necessary.

Hmmm not sure, I will try mine when I get home! Have not had an issue, mine was the wheel coming off!!

Not sure what the issue is. I know we had to follow the path exactly that ours came out of. There were two specific points that had to be connected right for it to work. One was on the spring end and the little s shaped metal piece had to slide in correctly and the other was a clip on the back. Perhaps it is too long? I am not sure what else the issue could be. You might google/you tube to try to make sure it is connected right. Best of Luck

We haven't had our child in it yet but our front wheels moved when we were playing with it. Maybe double check your rods in the front end.

Did you ever find a answer? Trying to figure this out myself, the tires seem to be the weak point!
