Product Description
Smart Cycle Extreme has a rumble feature in the handle bar. It's a stationary bike, a learning center, and an arcade game system-all rolled into one. Smart Cycle plugs right into your TV, ready to take kids on learning adventures like no other. As they pedal, favorite character friends guide them through learning discoveries, games, and even exciting races. Bring the arcade experience home, with multiple levels of play for different ages and stages.
Just like a real bicycle, Smart Cycle pedals are not interchangeable (there is a left threaded pedal and a right threaded pedal). It's important to assemble the right pedal on the right side of your Smart Cycle, and the left pedal on the left side. To help you, we've stamped and labeled each pedal and pedal axle with an "R" for the right side and an "L" for the left side. To tighten the pedals, you'll need to turn the left pedal counter-clockwise (which is different from how you would normally tighten) and the right pedal clockwise. Be sure to tighten both pedals firmly with the enclosed assembly tool and you're ready to roll!

Living in a rainy climate, we thought the Smart Cycle Extreme would be a great way for our son to get indoor exercise and he did like it, but it really is an elaborate seat for joystick games. Of all of the games on the cartridge, and the buggy and practically identical Thomas the Tank Engine cartridge (all the same lame games, but with trains), only two require the child actually pedal the bike. And even then, pedaling is not necessary. Most of the time our boy just sat on the thing and used the joystick and pressed the buttons. If that was all we wanted him to do, then we could have paid the same money for a better game system for him. He gets better than this from games on [....] and those are free! If a company is going to make a stationary bike for kids, then why not make it so the kids actually have to pedal? And then make it fun for them to pedal! What they've done here makes no sense.
 Awesome! February 12, 2010

I purchased this or my grandson for Christmas. He and his sister both loved it. It only last about a week and he broke it. In my opinion, the toy is not durable enough for active children.
My kid loves the Smart Cycle. February 9, 2010

My son has had this for about 6 weeks, and loves playing with it. It's important to get a few different game cartridges, for variety. It's held up well in that time.

We bought the Smart Cycle Extreme for our 3 year old as a Christmas present. I didn't buy this toy for the educational value but to get my son acclimated to pedaling a bike. I can say that it took about six weeks before my son began to pedal like a champ. So we are ready for him to ride his bike outside this spring.
As for the overall construction, it is a cheap and hollow plastic toy. There is not much sturdiness to it. It should hold up as long as your child isn't abusive with it. You can buy cartridges for the system. The games have extremely low graphics. It looks really bad on our 27 inch TV and looked much worse on our 42 inch LCD. It's reminiscent of the first generation of atari games: very blocky and low quality.
Overall, this is an ok purchase. Just lower your expectations for what this is going to look like on TV.
