I'd like to say that my trikes didn't have a couple bruises from my brother cutting his teeth. This is what happens when we share our toys!
But, I was always happy when he came back unhurt..I always told him if shlt was going down, I'd rather the machine get hurt instead of him. Bail, don't try and save the machine!!
Hopefully this is the case here..bummer about the OEM breakage though.
Current toys..
