Electric Pocket Bikes: Radio Flyer Ultimate Canopy Steer & Stroll Trike Review

Radio Flyer Ultimate Canopy Steer and Stroll Trike

My son received this trike as a Christmas present from his grandparents. He is only 14 months old, but big for his age, in any case he cannot pedal yet. The best features of the trike are that it is easy for Mom or Dad to steer, it has a seat strap, and its just plain cooler than going for a walk in a stroller. My son loves it and anytime he gets a peek of it he points to it and squeals, if we don't let him ride it he gets upset. He feels like a big boy, especially since he always sees the older kids in our neighborhood on their bikes. The features you can live without include the sun shade, which I haven't noticed actually blocking any sun, and the cup holder which doesn't really work out that well, the slightest turn and the drink tips and spills. This only detracts slightly from the overall impression of the trike, but you could save some money by buying the model without the useless sunshade. The seat doesn't seem adequate for a five year old, which is the age the trike is supposed to be used until. I don't think we'll use it much past three years, but all in all it is a sturdy little trike and my son loves it.
