After about 20 years of riding pretty seriously, I've learned that lesson the hard way, and won't go cheap any more.
Those bikes seriously just fall apart, I can't get a day out of one before I bend a rim or snap something.
But, then again, you get an entire bike for the cost of a name-brand tire. (EX: the online sale price for my tires is $55, each, they retail for $80. A cheap kids bike is $60-100)
We got this from Craigslist for like $20. I think the first owner got it from Target. Notice the lack of a brace for the training wheels...
I'm not a fan of department store bikes, but in general I think they're fine for kids. They don't use them for long, and don't need anything approaching high-end components. You just have to go over the assembly to make sure it's halfway safe.
But he's basically at the size limit for that bike, and has started riding a Mongoose bike our neighbors gave us a while back. It probably came from Walmart or Target, but I can't find it right now. He loves to ride it, but the thing is HEAVY. 30+ lbs is a lot to a kid that weighs 45. And like I said, we live on a hill, so he ends up walking the bike up to our house. And any other time there's a hill, which can really drag out the bike rides.
So, we're looking into getting him a lighter bike, maybe even something from the bike shop.
