Yes, definitely for parents wanting to make a lasting investment to stretch their dollar. Nothing wrong with that, but not a kid’s dream. This ad all but says, “This bike can be handed down to every child in your large family. Imagine how happy they all will be!” And Captain Kangaroo is there to help, Haha! (I thought he was my friend as a child.)

Actually, I was kind of spoiled, though I shared bikes (Huffy and Triumph) until I was able to buy my own. I just came back from visiting Cuba, and they get more use out of a heavy duty bike made in the early 1900’s than most would ever dream of. Sorry, that’s off topic.
