how are the rear wheels driven from the pedals. Is only one rear wheel the drive wheel or is the whole axle shaft driven.

One wheel. Works great on cement or pavement; not so hot on loose round cover like rocks. Overall a great product. Big hit in our neighborhood which is full of kids. They all want to ride it , and they have just about every other contraption made.

There is only one rear drive wheel. But my 6 years old son drive well through an uneven road. But he had lost his enthusiam for it within 2 weeks.

I assume you actually mean between the cranks and flywheel since all pedals spin freely. The answer is no, it does not "freewheel." That's how all spin bikes work and that's what makes them different from an old-school "exercise" bike. It's a direct connection from the crank sprocket to the flywheel via the chain and there is no freewheel on the flywheel �

No the bike is not belt driven. The pedals are attached directly to a weighted and balanced flywheel. The resistance is applied magnetically. Very smooth and quiet.

A bike wheel is made of three parts. Hubs, spokes, and the rim. Rims are interchangeable front/rear. Hubs are not interchangeable.There is a slightly more expensive wheel listed by the same seller, which is a rear wheel; otherwise when you get this one, you have to change over the hubs.A word of forewarning: these aren't heavy-duty rims, and you may have to periodically true them. These are quick-release, too, so make sure to tighten them properly.

I purchased this back in July so my recollection is not absolutely clear. having said that, I do remember that the right rear wheel was/is the drive wheel. I think the the left rear wheel freewheels. Could check it out tomorrow when I will have an opportunity look at the unit again. Let me know.

The answer to all 3 questions is yes. The drive wheels are controlled independently. To drive forward requires squeezing levers with both hands. To turn, release one of two levers and only one wheel turns. To reverse requires moving a the shift lever from forward to reverse.

Alon, all these answers are great. On operation as P. Tower stated the bearings ride on a 5/8" axle shaft. They are designed to be held on the shaft with some kind of pin such as a cotter pin or a spring clip. This allows the wheels some movement along the axle. They aren't designed for any type of high speed. As noted, if the tires wear or the tubes sail the two rim halves separate to make mounting new rubber easy.

The training wheels I am familiar with would not work on the derailer side of the rear axle. The other side of the rear axle has the kickstand on it, but it could come off and put a training wheel on that side only.

This is a pair of pedals. I like the pedals, but I did need to adjust the bearings. They had a clicking sound when I first installed them

if you need a hub for the rear wheels you'll need an axle because the hub is part of the axle. If you just need the rear wheel bearing you can get the rear bearings separate from the axle but I don't know the part number offhand.

If you want to be able to pedal backwards freeky. Simple flip the rear wheel. It's a flip hub which means one side is fixed and the other is single speed. Stay coastin.

Rear wheel with abs. If you select your car year model etc it will explain that.

It is a single speed, though it does have a drive axle shaft and all the components are attached to it...drive gear, coaster brake, etc.

Because they are inside the rear hub. If you pedal backwards. the brake comes on.

I know been a year since this was posted... I have a pesky squeak like rubbing sound from one of the pedals when in use. I think left side? If I go really fast it kinda lessens. But if I go a steady pace it sounds like a rub/squeaking. Did anyone figure this out? I noticed the comment stated to put some of the bottled lubricant on the track? Is that right thing to do? Thanks for any help!

Hi! It is just pedal riding. However, my grandson really loves it. The only problem I see with it is we cannot adjust the seat as he grows, which he has done a lot over the winter. So far, he is making due. It really is a cute one.
