Joystar Unicorn
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
Kids adore the cute Joystar Unicorn, but that's about where the praise ends. The Unicorn poses countless hurdles right from the moment it's unboxed. Parents report missing or damaged parts, poorly written instructions, and a frustrating assembly. Many complain that the brake doesn't work, the doll seat doesn't fit, and the training wheels come loose easily. Some parents remove them and teach their children to ride without them. For many buyers who purchased the Unicorn as a birthday gift, Joystar ends up delivering disappointment rather than a functional bike.Expert Reviews
