Kent Full Tilt Boys Bike, 20-Inch

Excellent Bike, I do not understand some of the negative reviews! First of all the bike come almost totally assembled. All you have to do is put on the front wheel, the bike handle and then insert the brake cable into the handle and finally push down the seat and lock the hand clamp down on it. Compared to other bikes I have bought for my son where I had to put on the rear wheel, Chain, chain guards and then assemble all the brake components etc this one was a breeze. ONE PIECE OF ADVICE: I do see some people saying that getting the front brake cable into the brake handle is difficult or impossible. This is true if you don't know a simple technique. 1) You need two people to do this. First unscrew the silver piece that the cable goes through on the break handle. 2) Put the front wheel on but don't push it into the fork slots, instead push it past the slots till the tire is rubbing into the metal of the break caliber. 3) Have your helper squeeze the break pads together so that the brake rubbers are going into the spoke area, this will give you the extra length on the cable that you will need. 4) Line up the slots on the silver pieces shaft and the slot on the nut, so that the cable can go in between both of them. 5) Once the cable is in the silver piece push the cable into the brake lever and get the round lead looking piece into it's slot. Your helper may have to squeeze the calipers together a little harder at this point so that you get as much cable as possible. 6) Once you got the cable lock in place screw in the silver piece and lock it down with the nut. That was what worked for me. I had the brake done in about 5 minutes. Overall the construction of this bike is excellent, the frame is heavy duty and the bike just feel very solid. Excellent paint job and I like the fact that even the tires came inflated. Maybe the only thing I wish they had included was an allen key for adjusting the handles angle. Oh and why are the rear brakes optional? I know rear brakes don't do much for stopping power, but they are really cool for kids to do tricks on the bike.

great bike. it's heavy but that's not a problem - will probably help it hold up better. we did have a little trouble with getting the wheel on. had to spread the forks out a good bit to get it to let the wheel in. we had not had a front brake bike before (he's 7) but in one day, he was already used to using it. the best feature is the seat adjustment - it has a clamp so you can raise and lower the seat as needed without tools. very cool. consider buying a fender - my boy gets mud splattered all the way up to his cap. really pleased with the bike. good deal.

This is a very nice bike for younger riders who have not yet advanced into jumping or other BMX style riding. It is well built and definitely sturdy enough for street/playground riding. Also I want to emphasize that the issue of the front fork being too narrow for the wheel has been corrected! My only complaint about this and other 20" bikes is that some bicycle "expert" decided that all kids riding such a big bike would be beyond the training wheel stage. And they made sure you couldn't put training wheels on it by shortening the rear axle! So there is no space to install both the training wheel bracket and a fully seated wheel nut on each side. Our grandson was just learning to ride when the pandemic hit, and had to go back into learning after growing out of his old bike. I'm sure other kids never learned when they were younger and would still need training wheels on a 20" bike.

This is a great bike for my 10 year old boy. He loves to ride through the dirt and grass as well as the driveway. This bike handles a good bit of abuse. It was very easy to assemble and I always fight with the handbrakes, but not on this Kent. I would definitely buy this bicycle again.

I purchased two bikes that were "warehouse deals". One repacking was sufficient, the other box (from KY) was poorly repacked and partially open when it arrived. Each bike had minor damage, but not significant. What WAS very significant was the length of the axle (that fits in the front wheel "fork") on each front wheel was about 3/4 to 1 inch longer than the width of the "fork" on to which the wheel is mounted. This required SIGNIFICANT bending and distorting of the fork on each bike in order to mount the front wheel. This should NEVER be the case for a new bike, EVER!!! It my strong opinion that this level defect in manufacturing is totally unacceptable and significant enough that the bikes should NEVER be sold in this condition!

We received our bike on time - as always with Prime - My 8 year old son loves it! It's perfect height for him and the handle bars are perfect reach for him - which is a plus because often times boys bikes are longer in the middle. It has hand brakes and back-peddle brakes which is also very nice for a kid his age. I would definitely recommend this bike for future buyers!

I always buy Walmart bikes for my boys. They ride ruff. My son wanted a blue bike and I couldn't find one. So, we tried Amazon. It was shipped to my door. My husband had to put it together but the quality was to be expected for the price. My son is 6 and didn't need training wheels because the previous reviews had me a little concerned about over all bike quality. Wheels aligned, no problems with peddling or braking, no chain getting caught on cogs or side bar. Kent is a new brand product for me but I would buy again for a growing boy.

Bought this item and when attempting to assemble, discovered the front tire cannot be installed due to the front fork being too narrow. Had to return the item.

Nice and sturdy! Our boy loves it

Loved the red color! Very sturdy bike

My 7 year old like it

Great bike for my 9 year old. He loves it. Picture and description don't include the fact it has a kick stand.
