  1. No one hurt

    Made Apr 14, 2016, sent to the company Apr 22, 2016, published by CPSC May 6, 2016

    The product, in the report: 12” Schwinn Roadster Trike, Red: Retro-styled classic tricycle frame with low center of gravity Air tires roll smooth and fast Real wood deck with burned-in Schwinn logo Roadster triple tube lowered stand-over frame and fork Mustache-style cruiser bars with bell Front wheel drive crankset with rubber inset pedals Wheels: steel hook beaded 12” front and 8” rear Chrome fenders Color: red

    My three year old daughter was riding her Schwann Roadster in the house. Then I noticed small metal beads on the carpet and on kitchen floor. At first I just picked them up to ask my husband about them. My daughter got back on the tricycle and I noticed beads under it. I called my husband at work and asked him if he knew what they were. When I told him about being under her tricycle when she moved it he said look at the wheels. That’s when I realized that all the metal beads were in the wheel. He was correct they were a bunch of metal beads missing and the lubrication was all around the wheel. He said they were the bearings in the wheel.

    The product, in the report: Schwinn Easy Steer Tricycle red

    Tricycle wheel/pedal assembly detached. I have included the email I sent to Schwinn.

    Wanted to let you know that for my daughter’s second bicycle we won’t be buying a Schwinn. We have purchased multiple Schwinn bikes in the past, but I think we’re done with Schwinn now. My daughter’s Easy Steer tricycle pedal detached from the wheel. As you can guess, that’s a bit of a safety concern. When I took off the wheel/pedal to see what the problem was, I was interested to see that someone who has no business being a welder was involved in making this tricycle. One tiny spot weld (it may have just been a solder point) was used to hold everything together. That’s shameful and dangerous. You should be ashamed. I’ll be forwarding this email on to the consumer product safety commission.
