ISO Deal: Tricycle (quiet tires?)
« on: November 13, 2017, 03:12:40 PM »
Looking to buy a tricycle. what are good deals/values?

are these
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002SW4856/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00667JT94
the best value//cheapest I'll find? something else better/elsewhere?

Also, we prefer not to have our downstairs neighbors start a civil war. do I need to look for air tires? are solid rubber tires quiet enough?

experiences welcome

thanks  :-[

Thought you would just tell him you're glad you're not his downstairs neighbors but that was very "New York" of you.

If walking on the floor makes noise I don't assume there's any amount of air in a tire that will prevent noises from reaching your neighbors. Maybe these would help https://www.walmart.com/ip/CAP-Barbell-Puzzle-Exercise-Mat-12-Piece/44165519

This isn't for outside?

likely will not be limited to outside.

obviously will not be able to "beat" the volume of walking, but imagine molded plastic fisher price wheels over your head?
If I can find something equivalent to walking should be ok.

noise aside: any tricycle deal recommendations?

All I can recommend is moving to the suburbs but no t Monsey because our suburbs are disappearing faster than you say LEOA.

Would you consider a plasmacar? The ride much smoother indoors than a tricycle. But maybe I'm thinking of older kids. Like from 5-12.

Should be around $30 though Plasmacar i think is a specific brand of them https://www.groupon.com/deals/gs-plasmacar-plasma-car-ride-on-vehicle-red = $63.99

https://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-cm-zig-zag-ride-on-car - $29.99
https://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-cm-imountek-whirlwind-wheels-ride-along-swivel-car-1 -$29.99

They have these at our daughters' cheder and they're VERY popular. There's only 2 and the kids fight over them all the time to ride on them :)

Be aware that riding plasma cars ruin shoes when kids drag their feet on the floor. Kids should only use them with crocs or other junky shoes.

So true, yet that doesn't stop our kids from ruining their shoes even on pedaled bikes, lol.
