Requirements breached
A sticker and a plastic plug on the bicycle can be detached, generating small parts. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke. Moreover, the plastic bag of the packaging is too thin: if a child plays with the packaging, the plastic can cover the mouth and nose causing the child to suffocate. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
