When we begin to make some connections .... here we begin to see the flaws ....
My son at 17 months, weighs 11kg and measures 85 cm, we spent a whole afternoon in the park with the tricycle before writing this comment. And as my wife I are quite disappointed, especially by the brand actually .... because from a recognized brand is expected to something without surprises. In the end it is HONTEUX !!!
* Tightening screws too long handlebars and beyond the protection of stumbled into PLAS-TOC.
* Seat and backrest PLAS-TOC unpadded hard no expected comfort for the child.
* A poor low-end strap
* Brakes immediately on all screw holes in the folder except 2 .... it was to lose too much time to do 2 more.
* The control bar painted in gray .... below is of aluminum. aspi kind of tube. the paint strokes bar at the slightest touch and nice bike in less than two becomes covered with stripes, it would have been better without painting. bar does not at all confident, as indeed it serves as steering lever, there is strong pressure exerted on them and there is considerable play between each piece of the drawbar ie 3 total points, greatly straining the little safety clip.
* End of the afternoon. the left rear wheel turns and twisted whines very strong .... probably because of the dust .... impossible to fit the oil in the system .... still a damn good thing not that we can repair or even maintain.
The clutch system that allows the "free wheel" and all-PLAS-TOC .... it is blocked by 2 times in trying to remove and recover ....
* The attachments of the wheels to the frame ..... tiny small coins in PLAS-TOC
* No access to chain / drive belt.
* No strap to attach the legs to the pedals in PLAS-TOC and the pedals are not in a non-slip plastic is not helping the child to keep their feet on it.
* No fender at the front which in addition to protecting mud splashes would mainly prevent the child from getting stuck his foot between the fork and the tire and the pedal.
It's 2 points deniers have my son it's done great evil by getting stuck his foot between the front wheel and pedal crushing his calf .... it has a nice brand that is ..... not death, but we expected better from a brand product Smoby, it's not as if I had bought a toy on a site import from China .... but think about it ?? ?
It is a product that I believe 60 euros maximum because I know it will be broken before my son is too large to use it, I think its lifetime 2 seasons ... no more buying such an object .... metal .... I thought I could sell it later or offer of strokes .... I feel like I already have lost money. ... then yes by cons nothing is too good for my son he was very happy with his red tricycle until it gets stuck between the foot pedal and the front wheel.
100 euros I feel to actually flew in the end, because it is not a finished product and is well below what is expected of a product to 100 euros above the Smoby brand.
