We bought this bike for my seven year old last year for his birthday.  He had never had a bike before just a tricycle and then "big wheel" type riding toys.  However, he wanted a big boy bike that came with training wheels but that could have those same wheels easily removed.  I bought it at toys r us but I did not have them put it together.  We had actually looked at "real" schwinns at bike stores but the sallest they sold was 20" which was just to big for my short child.  A friend of ours (who runs the bike shop in question0 told us to go look at toys r us for an 18" Schwinn and he'd put it together for us. He was very impressed at the quality of the bike.  He had expected it to be better than the run of the mill 18" bikes but he said that he was actually impressed by this one.  It has been a great bike for our son.  It's tough and durable (the only think he's managed to get off it is to unscrew the peddels once which when right back on and to rip off quite a bit of the "decoration" which were stickers that came with the bike).  it can be used with or without training wheels.  For my son at leas it's a great height.  Right now we have the seat completely lowered and he is just tall enough to ride it.  When he grows we will have plenty of seat to pull up for a while.  If you have a child who's to small for a 20" bike but wants a more adult bike you should consider this one.
