ATG Stores Learning Curve John Deere Heavy Duty Boys Bicycle Review + $100 Gift Card Giveaway

It took Evan forever to learn how to pedal his tricycle. He kept wanting to just push himself around with his feet on the ground. Once he mastered pedaling, we decided it was time for a "big boy bike".

I searched ATG Stores on their CoolKidsUniverse site to find the perfect bike. ATG Stores has a large selection of everything you can think of. Allied Trade Group, Inc. (ATG Stores) began in 1999 with the launch of its first website, LightingUniverse.com. They have since grown to over 400 sites that feature different types of products.

ATG Stores sent us the Learning Curve John Deere Heavy Duty Boys Bicycle Kids Bike.

John Deere - Heavy Duty Boys’ 12" Bicycle

• It's one mean, green, pedal - powered machine!
• Heavy-duty, tractor-tough and powered by nature's most abundant fuel source... your kid-o's seemingly inexhaustible supply of energy!
• Just like the big boy toys it's named after, this Bike is built strong, sturdy and ready to roll over anything that gets in its way!
• Features heavy-duty frame, dirt-chewing heavy-tread tires and comes complete with removable training wheels to use until he's ready for 2 wheels
• Carry rack also included
• For ages 3 and up

Here are the pieces that it comes in.  My husband was able to put it together within 15 minutes.

Here it is ready to ride.

Evan was thrilled when he saw his new bike.  He told me it was just like the big kids' bikes in the neighborhood.  When he first got on it he realized it was higher than his tricycle and was a little hesitant.  He wanted me to keep pushing him around.  Finally he got the hang of it and was able to pedal himself-but he still won't go fast.

The quality of this bike is fantastic.  To brake, he just pushes back and he comes to a stop.  This bike will get many years of great use and when he's old enough we can take the training wheels off.  He still needs a little help getting started sometimes so Isabella is more than willing to give him a push.

I used to think that the prices at ATG Stores were a little high, but I noticed they're starting to go down a little. This bike was $114 when I first saw it on their site and it is now $102. With such a great selection of toys and other items for everyone on your list, ATG Stores is a one stop shop for the holidays.
