I am riding mountain bikes and maintaining them myself since the mid- late ‘90s. There is nothing a pro mechanic does that I don’t. That said, I could not identify why that thing was sold to me as FACTORY SECOND. Maybe a weld that had a very minor imperfection if you’re looking for something? Or just ER’s way of saying factory sale such as everyone else these days?

Pre-assembly was good and screws to torque specs.

A $10K bike does not come pre-assembled any better.

If there is one thing I would change is to remove the clear coat. This is a kids’ bike and will be thrown around and against things. Raw frames can easily be refreshed with a Scotch Brite sponge. That said, aside other things such as the belt drive that thing is already superior to other kids’ bikes just as all others are painted and will look awful after a while.

Weight is perfectly reasonable for a 4 y/o.

Would immediately buy again.

My 4 year old loves it. He can now join us on family MTB rides. Belt drive is awesome. Super light weight build. Love the silver finish on the frame. Low stand over height makes the bike super approachable for smaller kids. Only knock on it would be the “gearing” could use a little tweaking to make it easier for climbing purposes, but honestly I use a tow-whee bungee for anything that is more than a quick walkable climb.

A very nice and high quality children's bike!

My daughter loves it.

Really easy to assemble and get going. Great build quality and the belt means no mess or risk of getting caught or grease.
