Not always true if you're a hardcore SDer. That's why we're all here.

To be clear, this is a kids bike.

Reviews mention buying for 6 and 7-year-olds.

How hard is paddling if you run out of charge or if you want kids to get some exercise?
If u stop pedaling the e-assist will stop. If it runs out of charge its a normal bicycle

This dude in the video has been around for a long time! I remember watching his diy electric bike conversion like 10 years ago! Glad he is still doing electric bike stuff!

If I can get a dozen rides or so out of this bike for the summer, it will be totally worth it.

Looking at the video review of the bike, it clearly has two standard hand-activated V-brakes.

It's possible that it *also* has a coaster brake, but that's very rare. I also don't see a reaction arm, which is almost always found on coaster brake bikes.

So ... I can't be 100% sure, but I really doubt it.

My wife is 5'1" would this bike work for her?

I'm 5'2", would this be good for me? Also, what's Walmart's return policy on these things?

Thanks OP!

Got a bike for my son and daughter

Bought the professional assembly and warranty just in case something happens to them

$22 for warranty is not bad per bike for 3 years

$49 for building the bikes is high but I would rather be safe and get it done correctly

Pretty reasonable still for 2 e bikes

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank wirtharch

Cheaper to buy the bike versus the $200 extra/replacement battery from Kent.
