Beware of right pedal1
My daughter loves this bike, and so I would have given it 5 stars, but... some moron at the manufacturer decided to turn this thing into a death trap. I don't know if it was out of pure stupidity, or a desire to save a few pennies by making all the same pedals... no, that would be stupidity as well because sooner or later they will be sued over this. Anyway, normally, on any other bike you see, the right pedal has a backwards thread on it so that it will not back itself out as the child rides. My daughter was riding two days ago and her right pedal just fell off. It didn't break, it just backed out of the crank. Fortunately, she was not injured. I just can't believe this was designed like this. Their effort to save by using left pedals for both sides will likely cost them in a lawsuit should some other child not be so fortunate. I recommend using some form of loctite on the thread, if not exchanging the bike all together. I cannot stress enough the stupidity of this design. I've taken apart and rebuilt bikes since I was a kid and I have never seen anything like this before. For those who have not bought it yet, beware.

No coaster brake.3
I bought this for my 9 yr. old daughter. She has always had a coaster bike. We live in a very hilly area and a mountain bike it what she really needs. I bought this because it said it had both types of brakes. I thought it would be a good transition bike. It's all put together now and it doesn't have a coaster brake. I guess she will have to learn the hard way.

Not as advertised2
Advertised as having a coaster brake, not.
Advertised as having a 6 speed, not, has a 5 speed.
If I would have known this, I would have opted for something else.
