Razor Pocket Rocket Miniature Electric Bike : Awesome little ride!!!

I received the bike for Christmas two years ago. I have to say, I LOVE IT. I recommend this for someone age Nine and up. Maybe Eight. Since this is a pocket bike. It's motorized. This would be a bad idea for a kid who can't ride on a two wheeler bike. Training wheels aren't able to be attached. This is a fast bike too. It goes 15 MPH. A young kid around the age of 5 can't handle a fall at a speed in that range. I'm twelve and I've taken some nasty falls on it. Don't let that make you say "This thing is too dangerous".
This bike was designed to be ridden on pavement. That's how you can go 15 MPH. I don't have pavement where I live so I am forced to ride it in my backyard. It still runs well on grass, gravel and rough surfaces.
This bike is easy to make portable. It weighs about forty five pound and can be put inside of a car trunk. I do that sometimes. To ride it on pavement to really get the adrenaline pumping.
Inside the box, the bike comes with the bike (Of course). And with the front fender. It needs to be put on before riding. I think now it comes with that assembled already. It comes with decals too. It has a charger and it needs to be charged twenty four hours before use. The handlebars must be fixed before too. Move them to any position that you like and tighten them.

Razor MX500 Dirt Rocket Electric Motocross Bike Review

Arrived with all the parts necessary and was put together in about 30 minutes. Son had a great time on this bike for about 10 days of gentle riding. then the chain broke. Went on to Razors website and found the part out of stock. Waited for several weeks then called the company who told me to call an authorized service center in my area. the service center said they don't have parts either they can only put the chains on.
The service center also mentioned what a pathetic track record Razor has. Thjis will be the last Razor product I ever buy. Get your act together Razor if you're going to make a product that falls apart at least have the parts available to fix it. I cannot recommend this because of poor quality poor customer service. If you want your kids disappointed then perhaps this is the bike for you. Otherwise get them a well made dirt bike. As soon as the chain comes in I'm going to sell this expensive piece of junk. BTW this is a re-review. I originally gave this bike 5 stars because I reviewed it to early. I should have waited a few weeks before revieewing it.
