Mobo Triton Pedal Go Kart Trike. Kids 3-Wheel Bike. Youth Cruiser Tricycle

We bought the Mobo Triton Pedal Go Kart Trike for our child, and it has been a huge hit! It’s sturdy, well-built, and offers hours of fun. The pedal-powered design is great for exercise, and my child loves the freedom it gives to ride around. It’s easy to steer and offers a smooth ride, even on rougher surfaces. The seat is adjustable, which is perfect as our child grows, and we feel confident about its safety features. Highly recommend it for any active kid who loves outdoor fun!

My 10 year old daughter has mild autism, as well as an auditory processing deficit so she uses ASL and typing text on a tablet for communication. She also has sensory issues, and the combination of learning to pedal, steer, look forward, and balance all at the same time has proven to be pretty challenging. Combine that with the fact that we primarily use ASL to speak back and forth when outside, and feeling she can stay safe while riding a regular bike hasn't seemed very doable. She did do a large balance bike for the past couple of years, but it's amazing how much more she's taken to the recumbent bike. Within a couple of sessions, she was riding two miles a day! It was mind boggling the day she figured out "hey I can take myself places in this thing." She immediately drove herself to the nearest playground, with me walking briskly to keep up with her :) We're lucky because her impairments are mostly in communication and to some extent dexterity and a little bit balance - but I think even a child who has pretty significant impairments can benefit from this bike. The steering and braking were very easy for her to learn, and she's figured out that the stronger she pedals before a small hill, the easier time she'll have getting up it. We bought a bike safety handle/guide for the back (MOLI DEE Children Cycling Bike Safety Trainer Handle Balance Push Bar) - which isn't seen in our bike picture but I'll attach another one with it. We were able to bolt it onto a part of the back, it's just high enough to use and makes an enormous difference when trying to help the child pedal up a slight hill. Stooping over to push on the top of the seat is a sure way to develop back pain for just about anybody. If you have a child who might need an occasional push or help steering, I would buy the handle when you buy the bike. This bike helps foster a sense of independence in kids who may not be ready or able to ride a regular bike, is wonderful exercise, and is just plain fun. Thumbs way way up!

I would definitely recommend this product. It's very heavy and sturdy. We bought for our grandson (and his twin sister loves it too) who is exactly four feet tall. He rides it on the second shortest setting so it could be used by someone shorter. It expands so he can use it for years to come. The turning radius is about five feet making the diameter about ten feet. It's close to the ground so I'm not afraid that he'll take a tumble. Very good recumbent bike. The only problem was when my husband and I tried to air up one of the tires, it tried coming off the wheel (looked like a bulge). We had to deflate it several times and try again, but finally succeeded. It was probably user error, so be careful. The first day it was ridden, one of the factory bolts came off but we found it quickly and screwed it back in. If you buy this, make sure all the bolts are tight before it's ridden. Great bike!

When this bike arrived the box had no visible damage. However, there was a large dent in the fender and one tire just won't stay on the wheel and it won't hold air. My husband, being a non-confrontational kind of guy, emailed the supplier and asked how to fix it (I would have called Amazon and asked to send it back!) because that's what the directions said to do. After several emails and one very disappointed kid, we still don't have the parts and I am beyond frustrated. The bike itself is only about 4 inches bigger than the Mobo Mobito so don't waste your money thinking you are moving from a small to a medium Mobo. We have the Mobito and side by side there is very little difference except for the $100 price difference. The Mobito is actually more sturdy in build and handles better than the Triton. The only positive difference between the two is the seat back on the Triton - my 8 year old says it is more comfortable than the Mobito. This is NOT what I expected for $300! Even if they do eventually send us the parts, we still have to attempt to make the repair ourselves and there was no offer of a discount for our time and labor, not to mention the disappointment of a kid who paid for half of this bike with his hard earned chore money. All in all, I love the Mobo concept, my kid and all of his friends love it, but we got a bad bike and horrible service. The Triton is essentially not bigger and not better than the Mobito and I wish I had not wasted my $300!

Love this trike! My 13 year old daughter has Down syndrome and struggles with balance- this is a great way for her to get exercise! I can ride it too! Excellent quality albeit a bit pricey but she will be able to use this into adulthood!

With a child on the Autism spectrum, everything you buy is a guessing game. This guess paid-off big time. My 10-year-old son absolutely loves this bike. He had never been on a bike of any kind, but took to this thing in a matter of minutes. My only regret overall is that I didn't buy the larger wheeled Triton Pro version. If you're buying this bike for anyone over the age of around 8 or 9 and they have any amount of strength at all, buy the Triton Pro for a few dollars more. The problem is that with the smaller wheels, you tend to "spin" the wheels when you start peddling if you aren't heavy enough, thus wearing the tires out rather quickly... like, in a month. Replacement tires aren't that expensive (around $10-$15 or so), but that's enough that you don't want to have to do it often. You'll also find that the larger wheel means less peddling to go the same distance. The bike itself is easy to put together, the instructions are pretty darn clear and the pieces are easily distinguishable and clearly marked—shouldn't take an average person more than 20-minutes. This thing is built sturdy as heck. There are no "cheap plasticy parts" to be found. The only downside to my particular experience was that the product arrived intact, but appeared to have been stored in a warehouse that either caught fire or had a really bad brake/tire-dust issue. The seats had black grime all over them that took 20-minutes or more of scrubbing to remove... same goes for the handle bars, and some of the fender metal (though that came off much easier). No permanent damage to anything, just a filthy mess. By the time I put the bike together, it looked like I had cleaned up a camp fire.

We have a hemiparetic child who needs more physical exercise, but doesn't have the function to be able to manage a regular bicycle. We did a lot of research, but there wasn't a ton of options out there that seemed like they'd work for our child's specific needs, especially in kids sizes. Some of the social media circles we frequent had recommended the Mobo recumbent trike as a good option, and even though the price tag was daunting, we decided to pull the trigger. I'm not sure it was the right move. Assembly took about an hour and 20min, but I had three children crawling on me, so your results may vary. No major errors or hiccups, but the assembly guide is minimalist, so you need to use your head a little. The trike is solid, as other users have noted. All metal, no cheap parts. The screws holding the seat cushion to the frame did come loose, all of them, within a day. We noticed one had actually completely fallen off onto the driveway. I tightened them all again and will keep an eye on it, but that was concerning. The other big issue I have with this is the turning radius. This trike cannot corner well or make tight circles, only big loops. The tightest cornering it can do is about a 10foot radius. It's a bit of an issue since pedaling backward doesn't reverse the bike, leading to multiple times when we had to lift/drag it to a new position. I can see this being trouble if we get to the point where we're out on sidewalks and need to make a 90* on a 3ft wide strip of cement. Basically this is a solution for wide open paved areas. The trike works well overall and my child seems to tentatively like it. We need to invest in solid straps/cages to keep their feet from sliding off the pedals, but the high price tag and the limited turning radius combine to leave me feeling less than satisfied with the purchase.

We purchased this bike for our 7 yo son who has some physical disabilities. We love it! My son is able to get on and off by himself and ride independently without fear of losing his balance like on a regular bike. It is a very comfortable ride.. He loves to cruise around on it in our neighborhood and the neighborhood kids think it looks awesome. My husband put the bike together in one evening. The instructions were easy to follow. It is a very high quality bike. It is very sturdy. I would recommend this bike to anyone, but especially for disabled kids.
