"High quality, good value" 2009-08-13
By B. Horton (Fort Worth, TX United States)
I ordered this bike for my son who is turning 4. I paid $119 and no shipping charge with Prime. It arrived in one business day instead of two (bonus!). Packaging and condition were good.
MY BIG OPINIONS FOLLOW.
WHAT I LIKED:
Quality construction: The frame is rigid, the welds are nice, and it's not quite as heavy (~25lbs) compared to some others I considered. The wheels, tires, seat, pedals and handlebars are BETTER than what you would hope to get at this price point. As I handled the bike it just felt and looked solid and expensive both in (MOST) details and the whole. It rides like an expensive bike.
Hardware: How about the little things? Nobody thinks about hardware until you get the thing home and Dad's cursing stripped bolts and flimsy plastic connectors that came with the Wal-mart bargain bike. What a joy to work with the grade A all metal parts that came with this bike. I felt more like a master mechanic than a toy assembler. EVERY fastener fit the first time. They could cut corners here but don't. Fun.
WHAT I LIKED LESS:
Fork/wheel fit: Only because I was able to remedy this issue without having to get Kettler involved do I not lead off this review with a huge gripe. The bottom (between the two tubes) of the front fork was a full 3/8 inch too narrow to receive the front tire. 3/8s?! All fun stopped here. Now, the circular tube fork was completely symmetrical when viewed from the top and my inspection revealed no kind of obvious flaw or defect in the bending or welding, EXCEPT for the subtle convergence of the two sides along their length.
Fork/wheel fit (cont.): Sheer arm strength alone yielded a mere 1/8 inch spreading leaving 1/4 inch to go. I did note the rigidity of the fork; it was so solid. I was both pleased and dumbfounded at the same time. And "Yes" it was the correct fork and it came already installed on the bike complete with spider stickers! Straight to the end: I spread the fork with wood, shims and a hammer until the wheel pegs/bolts slid in under tension. This part required me to grow two extra arms and hands so grab a buddy to help you and read this again if found in this predicament. The ultimate fit was exact and tight. Problem solved. Okay, it's true; I loved this bike so much by the time I found this problem that I was determined to work it out and only call Kettler as a last resort. (Which I did not do)
Material confusion: Kettler was a pioneer in the use of aluminum in bicycle construction and so I was a little disappointed to discover that the frame is steel (magnets don't lie). I confess I made an assumption based on a lack of information beforehand and now you can know for sure. That said, is this a really a big deal? No. Not for the discounted price and nice design and workmanship and the fact that all the other 16" bikes I considered at this price (and under) are steel, too. I guess this point is not really a detractor but it's worth mentioning.
Spiders gone wild: This issue made me chuckle and is easily remedied. Look at the stock photo of this bike. It has at least 15 spider and Pulse decals, spiders on the seat (which I did like), and spider handlebar pads. To me, it's visual overkill and borders on tacky. Blame the German designers? Preferences vary, I know. Use Goo Gone and an old credit card as your taste dictates. (I removed a few of the worst and kept the big, black, totally awesome spiders.) The two pads that attach to the handlebars are thin and very cheap in quality; they hit the trash and are strangely inconsistent with the style and quality of the rest of the bicycle.
No kick stand: It seems standard among kid bikes not to have a kick stand when training wheels are included. For me, I'd take the stand as a separate installable piece (at least) since I don't need the wheels.
BOTTOM LINE: I recommend this bike. It is High Quality for a Good Price. You'll know you got a good deal when you build and see him ride it. My boy loves it and so do I. Five stars for this overall great bike. Buy with confidence.

"Great first bike!" 2009-07-07
By K. Hutchinson (Wisconsin)
We purchased this bike for our 4 year old son after a lot of research. Our son loves it and was able to ride it instantly. It is not too heavy, perfect size and really well built. It is such a hit - he rides it every day when his dad gets home from work. Definitely worth the money!
