This is a great balance bike and firat bike for any tot! It has a 1 1/8th threadless stem/fork so you and integrated headset. Not a sealed unit but serviceable. The wheel hubs are cone and cup not sealed but again very serviceable. The handle bars are pretty narrow and steal. We swapped out for some wider aluminum bars. The stock grips are ok. After a few dumps the bars made thier way threw the ends so when we replaced the bars we upgraded to some better bumper grips. The seat is ok. You can only adjust the seat up or down. No pitch, to or fro. So we opted to for another seat we could adjust. Now the bike fits my girl like a glove and well maybe $30 in upgrades. The bike is pretty light only about a pound heavier than the Woom and same geometry. The brake lever is plastic and the vbrake itself is low end and uses plastic. Not to sure if it matters with this bike at the low speeds. It's more just there to help train the use of a hand brake. Kids will use thier feet to stop anyways even in conjunction with the lever. Overall for the price and even with swapping/upgrading parts still a great deal. I did pick up a long seat post to stretch out the legth of use a bit. If your a bicycler you will appreciate this little mini bike. The geometry is that of what youd find in a flat bar commuter/hybrid. Seems like we will get a good 2 years maybe more depending on how fast my girl grows. She got this at 18months and think it last til 3 1/2-4 so its worth the investment. Again you can adjust this bike in many ways and you can use some real bike parts on this littlw bueaty. I kinda wish they came in more colors. We got blue its a nice shade just well some people have to have a pink bike so they can remeber they have a girl I guess? Anyways a can of spray paint and an afternoon can fix that if need be. It's a steal frame but very light and after swapping out the steal bars and steal seat post with aluminum lost about a pound. So its about 7ibs and for a 30ib kid that's pretty good vs 25-35 for a big box store training wheel bike. Just stay away from that stuff
