Radio Flyer Classic Red Tricycle By Samples78 on Dec 31, 2007 - Updated Sep 18, 2011

My parents purchased this tricycle for my 3 year old daughter for Christmas. My dad especially liked the retro look and the fact that it looked sturdy. It took a little longer than expected to put together (my dad is pretty handy and it still took him over 30 minutes).

On Christmas morning my daughter went directly for her new tricycle. She loved it and immediately hopped on and started riding. It does not appear to tip easily and she could move around the house with ease. There is a great bell and streamers on the handle bars. The bell is very loud so be forwarned that it can get quite annoying inside. One problem we had was the handle bar started twisting, making it difficult to drive. After tightening it up some more the problem seems to be fixed. I also like the fact that the trike has rubber tires. Many of the trikes I looked at had plastic wheels that did not seem very sturdy. The final feature that sold me on this trike was the adjustable seat. I feel that it will grow with my daughter and last her until she is ready for a bike.

Overall I would recommend this tricycle. It is just the perfect thing for my 3 year old to scoot around on.
