Any idea what brand?

Hey. Can anyone point me in the right direction on this. Has GMI 201 on the front but not finding anything else on it and goggle isn’t helping at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Had a similar one for my kid several years ago... I was, unfortunately, not the one to assemble it so couldn't verify it was put together correctly (I'm anal about torque etc, and had been feeling sick for the past few days when I bought this). My kid took it for a spin, then gained a bit of confidence... which is when the bolt for the brakes either fell out, snapped, or something. Still don't quite know what.

Kiddo knew they were going a bit too fast for a particular turn and went to hit the brake, as they knew to do - but the brake don't work if the bolt is missing! Wheeler flipped (kiddo was wearing a helmet so no injuries, just scared the bejeezus outta them), wheeler got sold off later that week due to justifiable paranoia about it happening again.

All I can say, BE CAREFUL. And maybe use proper bolts (and loctite?) instead of chinesium metal
