Mongoose Skid Kids Bike

My son loves his bike. He even rides it in the house. This bike was pretty easy to assemble grateful that the bike didn’t come with any missing pieces like some other reviews stated I would recommend this bike for kids.

We got this for our almost 5 year old for Christmas and he loves it! I love the bright orange color and chrome wheels.

Great quality. It was very easy to assemble

We started off with the training wheels attached, and that definitely helped him get used to the bike. The training wheels don't have a lot of adjustment, so they kind of just go on at the height designed, which means these training wheels are only a couple of inches off the ground. That's OK if your kid really doesn't have good balance, but you'll quickly realize that these are a hindrance in their ability to progress (the training wheels are touching constantly). Fast forward a couple of months, and it was time to take the training wheels off. The bike is a 300% better product now, and rides great. My son zooms around on this bad boy all afternoon with his buddies. Without those training wheels it rides so much better - they were creating so much drag. The bike doesn't come with a kickstand, which I think is a huge miss. Once the training wheels come off, it just gets laid down on the ground with not in use. I searched online for the replacement part from Mongoose, no such thing. Mongoose doesn't even sell the kickstand. When searching for kickstands, there are lots of newer age versions that attach to the rear frame, but I wanted a classic center mount (which this bike is setup for). It was hard to find one, but I finally did. I shouldn't have had to spend another $20 for the kickstand given the price of this bike.

Bought in December 2019 for my 4 year old; he loved it! Transitioned to no training wheels and kept going. Passing it on to neighbor with a 5 year old; still in excellent shape after 5 years!

My daughter loves the bike but it arrived with a bad wheel and missing the pouch. I would have returned it had I noticed these issues before I assembled it. This comes right after buying a faulty Mongoose scooter. Hate to say it but I'm done with Mongoose.

Great birthday gift

This bike itself is awesome, but we can't build it yet, there was a missing screw on one of the wheels and the size doesn't appear to be standard so we are going to many hardware stores searching for it. For the small parts I wished they provided a bag of spares, the little pieces get lost so easily and hard to replace.

Buena bicibleta. Mi hijo tiene 5 años y esta mega feliz con ella. Es pesada, pero resistente. Se arma con relativa facilidad, solo hay que revisar todas las tuercas, dado que vienen con una especie de protección.

Mi hijo tiene tres años y le quedó excelente
