Del - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
This Bike is CRAP. It has fallen apart since I purchased it. First the brake became loose then went out. Luckily it has secondary brakes that engage when the bike is peddled backwards. A few days later the handle bars rotated 360 while the front wheel was in a different direction. Now the handle bars have came completely out of the bike. My son could have been injured. A total waste of time and money. If only a ZERO star was an option.

Miriam - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
Horrible instructions.. the instructions are literally for a toddler bike, not even for this 20-inch bike. Couldn't even put this together. After attempting to unscrew the screw to install the handlebars, I couldn't even manage to do that bc they were screwed in way too tight! At the risk of striping the screws I ended up just returning this bike. Don't buy if u have to put this together!

Reviewer145 - 10 months ago
It'a not blue, don't be fooled. Shame on you, Target. We picked up from the store and saw the color is completely inaccurate. On the website, it looks black or navy. The description says blue. It's purple - a purple my daughter would like, NOT my son. Return and start researching again. What a bust.

We’ve managed to keep this bike for a little over a year and it’s a piece of junk. So many problems with it. Opened several cars with schwinn and went thru multiple parts and now that it is over a year there is nothing they will do for us. I do not recommend this bike and I will never buy a schwinn.

Awful bike, purchased last Christmas. Our son rode it once and it broke. The bearings or chain have locked up and can’t be fixed. I’ve called Schwinn and they just keep sending me replacement parts, like I’m a bike mechanic. Absolute joke, it’s been almost a year now without a bike for my son and all I want is for someone to send us a replacement bike. Never buying another product of theirs again.

KG - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
I bought this bike for my son on May 8, 2022. He was still using his training wheel bike and did not use it during the year. We attempted to use it this past week. The shield on the handle bars was put together incorrectly. The seat was not attached correctly, which we were able to fix. The left hand brake does not work at all. The right hand brake only works when pedaling backwards. We cannot use the bike at this point. After noting these three issues, we are wondering what else may be installed incorrectly. After talking with two customer service members, sending two emails to corporate, and taking the bike to the store that it was purchased from (to find out if it was assembled in store or was pre assembled), the only answer I received was “There is nothing we can do, it’s beyond 90 days.” I cannot figure out if it is a problem with the manufacture or if an employee at the store caused the safety hazard for my son. I am completely frustrated and appalled at the lack of concern for safety.

Most of the negative reviews are due to color and the inability to add training wheels. We have zero complaints. Purchased it put together and made some slight adjustments to the brake pads to make sure they were in the right place, super easy. I will say there is some variation in the “dark blue” color. One at the store looked purple and the other (the one we bought) looks navy blue/black. Functions great and if you remove the back reflector and go with a light, you can lower the seat more. As for training wheels, we don’t need them but a lot of people said you can’t add them so that may be a deal breaker for you. Otherwise, it holds up to the Schwinn brand and it’s a great kids bike for our 7 year old.

Chase - 2 years ago
Don't be like me and say, "It's a kid's bike, OF COURSE I can buy some training wheels to put on it,"--nope! In an ambitious effort to save a few cents, Schwinn chose to put a rear axle on that is only wide enough to fit the stock washer and nut. I wish I'd checked reviews before showing my son the bike in store and/or this limitation was clearly marked on in-store merchandising material.
