Troubleshooting
Bike wobbles or feels unstable.
Ensure training wheels are securely attached and level. If training wheels are removed, check that the child is using the hand brakes effectively to maintain balance.
Brakes are not engaging properly.
Check that the brake cables are properly tensioned and that the brake pads are aligned with the wheel rims. Adjust as necessary according to the brake manufacturer's instructions (if applicable).
Chain seems loose or noisy.
Inspect the chain for any damage and ensure it is properly tensioned. The closed chain guard should prevent most issues, but occasional checks are recommended.
Handlebar or saddle height needs adjustment.
