BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Bottom line
The Joystar Whizz is a budget steel kids' bike available in four sizes for kids 32" to 57" tall (ages 2 to 9). All sizes are very heavy for their intended age ranges. Parents appreciate the included training wheels, adjustable seatpost and handlebars, and helpful customer support. Buyers praise the easy assembly, but the poorly written manual, missing or damaged parts, and misaligned components cause frustration. Additionally, owners complain that parts come loose or fail within days. Most owners think the Whizz offers decent value, but Joystar's weak quality control should be considered.Expert Reviews
