| Have just put together the trike I got from toysrus for Izzy I have tried the front wheel in both ways and neither works right...one way and the pedals dont work and the other way it clicks when I push the frikin thing The booklet mentions clicking when freewheeling - but is it freewheeling when I push (when for example she doesn't pedal) Cant turn the wheel round cos the pedals just go round and don't make it move We tried it out in the shop yesterday (the demo one) and it didn't make any noise and she wasn't pedalling Would you put up with this noise?! Im so mad cos he birthday is tomorrow |

| I thought I was going mad and maybe it should do that - but if it did it in the shop Id have said no way!
I have changed the wheel round about 5 times lol and its a tricky fecker to screw up, but the other way it doesn't make the noise when I push it but the pedlas don't work
Im thinking for tomorrow til I get to take it back I'll turn it round so I can push her and it wont click, cos I dont think she will pedal at first anyway...I hope not anyway cos if I change it round she wont move when she pedals!
I even 'sat' on the frigin thing to check I was 'pedalling' with my hands the right way - began to wonder if I knew how to pedal a bike! |

| Is it one of those with the 'clutch' - So pedals don't move and parent has full control or you can press the clutch in and kid has full control? |

| There is no mention of a clutch Zee in the instructions, and cant see anything on the wheel either I have now moved the wheel round so it makes no noise when i push, but the pedals dont work |

| I've just watched the video and am wondering why when you push it forwards the pedals don't move but when you pull it back they do? They shouldn't move at all in parent mode?! |
