Has anyone had problems with the front tire rubbing against the frame ? Its almost as if the tires are the wrong size....

On the first try, I accidentally had the fork turned around backwards. Make sure it's facing the right direction (look at the decals). That was the only problem I had. Hope this works for you!

Yes, I placed the Front handle bars on backwards and this happened. Take a good look at the front forks. They can be rotated 180 degrees once you loosen up the handlebars. That should fix your problem. Still a tight turn but manageable.

The front tires are the right size. My wife uses her bike to train for triathlons. There were a couple of comments from other buyers regarding the front tire rubbing against the frame. That can only happen if the front wheel and handlebar are installed the wrong way.

For me, improper adjustment was the cause. I watched a few YouTube videos, and adjusted them myself. Problem solved. A bike shop can do it for you if your not a DIYr.

I have never had any issues with this stroller, including the front wheel. I am very happy with this stroller and highly recommend it.

Sorry to hear about your experience. Fortunately the bike i purchased for my son works well even though he does not use it. The only thing i can think of is to have a mechanic or tech guy look at it. They may be able to tell you which part is defective and then you may be able to order a new part and have them install. Sorry

On the bike I got, the tires were an issue. They are 700 X 37 or close to that. The tread is thin and prone to flats. I had 2 from thorns on the same trip. Bought tire liners and thorn resistant tubes which have helped. Definitely not mountain bike tires.

I've had the Schwalbe tires for a year. I put one on the rear because my performance bike shop was out of the others. Two weeks later I put one on the front even though it was fine. You'd be wise to let the shop put them on as they're very tough. Best tires I've ever had. Bulletproof.

LOOK TO SEE IF THE FRAME HAS BEEN BENT AT ALL. IF SO MAKE SURE TO USE THE BEND TO HELP KEEP IT ON THE FRAME. I HAVE Never had this problem. Mine is quite old and I make sure the bend faces outward so it connects the snuggest.

I love everything about this bike, with one exception. The tire's are flimsy and thin. I replaced the factory tire's after 1 month of normal use, I strongly suggest you do the same. I brought my bike down to the bike shop after I started to lose traction and the mechanic told me I was the the 4th person to replace the tires he has serviced with this model bike. it cost me $75 but it was well worth it. I have been riding 25 years and have never owned such a great bike. I wish Jeep would get it together and do something about the bike's cheap tires. If you have not bought this bike yet, DO!. Then replace the tires ASAP. Had my bike 5 years and am buying a new one this spring same model Good Luck. I love everything about this bike, with one exception. The tire's are flimsy and thin.

I did not have this problem. The wheel has gone on easily for me. Actally, in your case, it sounds like there was a factory malfunction...just a fluke. Mine has been great for years, other than the wheel coming off a couple of times. I hope this info helps you.....Cathy

The Frame is sturdy, so if you are above average in weight you might want to consider inflating the tires a little more. If you are very large, you may find the seat uncomfortable. As with any exercise, you should always consult your physician before beginning a new regimen.

I have not had any issues with the tires. I love this stroller and am actually thinking of purchasing another one for my second home (so I do not have to transfer it back & forth).

It is the back wheels that would give you trouble..too tall when bike on its side. Don't remove the front wheel because of the gear assembly.

I haven't had to deal with that issue. My bike has been doing great! I would send a request to Schwinn for the information.

I had similar experience and returned mine. No idea but not a good tire by any stretch of the imagination.

The tires themselves are not the problem as long as you stay on sidewalks. The BIG problem with the Ultimate Wagon wheels is the front wheels which swivel as the wagon is pulled. When pulling at any more than dead slow speed, the oscillate back and forth making a very poor virbrating and noisy ride. Needs to be fixed somehow. I will try direct contact with American Flyer.
