The training wheels are sufficient as advertised, but they may not hold up for long. If your youngster is just starting out, they may not last through his or her entire learning experience. They certainly won’t be able to be passed down to a second child learning to balance on two wheels, unless the first one was very light in weight and mastered it quickly. Still though, probably a good purchase for the price, in that you can get at least two sets of these for the price of a more durable and quality set.

They mount easily and you can assemble them with the proper tools while your toddler waits and enjoy the entire experience of putting them together and trying them out together.

These training wheels are easy to install however the bike we have has a thicker than usual bar going to the back of the bike and the training wheels constantly slip and spin around even when very tight. It had a rubber guard so it doesn’t slip which is good but seems that the cut out just isn’t wide enough for our bike. The other trouble with it is that the plastic chain guard had to be removed to make them work on this bike and there’s no way to put back on with them attached, a hazard. I don’t know if it’s meant specifically for Schwinn bikes or not, maybe that’s the problem. I wouldn’t have bought again for those reasons…

I put these on a 12″ bicycle for our 3 year old boy. They are easy to install and work well for him. It says that they are adjustable in size to fit a larger bike, but since they are designed to fit many different bikes they are not as sturdy as previous sets we’ve had that were designed for the bikes they came with. If you have a child that is older and may be harder on the bike than a three year old would be, its possible that one side of the training wheels might rotate out of position if knocked or kicked out of place. Its easy to put it back into position and retighten it, but i’ve noticed I can knock it out of position with a good hard whack of the hand. Overall these are still very good for the price we paid for them and are working well for our son.

I purchased these training wheels for my son’s 20″ Mongoose bike and overall I’m very satisfied with them. Very easy to install and work as they are supposed to. My only complaint is that the brace that rests on the frame will occaisonally slip out of position if he rides his bike on unlevel terrain (grass), but this has never caused the training wheels to fail. I just make sure to keep an eye on them, and adjust if neccesary. The quality of these training wheels doesn’t match those that come with bikes, but are an acceptable add-on for those bikes that don’t have them. For the price, I would purchase these again.

As others have said when reviewing. These training wheels were inexpensive but I wouldn’t buy with any expectation to re-use them. I am disappointed that the part that holds the wheel in place against the bike frame kept slipping. I had to keep re-tightening with a wrench. I am a bargain hunter so I am used to getting what I paid for.
