We'll be getting ours at either Target/Walmart or Babies R Us.

Re: kids bicycle...Target/Walmart or a real bike store?
bike shop! some shops now offer trade-up programs where once a kid grows out of a bike you can return it to the store and get credit towards an upgrade...
there is a HUGE difference in quality from the 1st bike we got DD (i think from toys r us?) to the one she rides now...i think it's a trek?

Re: kids bicycle...Target/Walmart or a real bike store?
T 7 my son has one from a bike store, but between the ages four and 7 and went through two sized bikes, Someone recommended to me that I should go cheap on those and get a nicer one as he gets older and I so glad I took their advice. He did not need an expensive bike before. NOw, at 7 we do take long bike rides and I am happy he has a bettter bike,

Re: kids bicycle...Target/Walmart or a real bike store?
I'm big into bikes (my good bike was over $1000), but I'm getting cheap bikes for DC (Walmart, TRU, etc) until they are old enough to really know how to ride well. DS's current bike was from TRU.

Re: kids bicycle...Target/Walmart or a real bike store?
My kids first bikes are from TRU. Once they mastered riding one, then they get a better quality one from a bike shop..

TRU and Target we got them at. They grow out of them way to quickly.

Re: kids bicycle...Target/Walmart or a real bike store?
I just bought DD a Huffy from Target yesterday. At $59, I figured it was a good starter bike to learn on. I went to the bike shops but I couldn't justify spending $180+ for a bike for her just yet (and DH and I own Trek bikes). We'll spend more on her next bike.

Re: kids bicycle...Target/Walmart or a real bike store?
I would get something less expensive at Targert or Walmart.
She will outgrow it eventually and I dont' think you need anything super expensive or fancy at that age.
