My two boys have one of these each, brought because I liked the look, the fact you can tailor them to be a bit individual, and based on other reviews. My four year old loves his and I was impressed with how quick he became very confident wizzing around-but this is where my criticism is-the brake is a complete after thought. The drum brake works fine, but you need a fair bit of leverage to make it bite, which a child cannot do with the lever that comes with the bike-its the same size as what's on my full size bike! I tried adjusting to bring the lever nearer to the handle bar but this failed so in the end I have change the lever completely for one from a BMX. Also I'm a little disappointed with the build quality.
