Synthesized Verdict

"The Stunt Bike is a functional, durable pullback vehicle that holds its Recommended rating with a BrickScore of 71.6, but buyers should note the above-average price-per-piece at $0.143 and the real limitations: play value is narrow, hard floors are required, and the set performs better as the first half of the Stunt Truck combination than as a standalone. Owner enthusiasm (4.79 avg across 494 ratings) is genuine but somewhat more tempered on value than the overall score suggests."

The Technic Stunt Bike (42058) earns a Recommended BrickScore of 71.6, but expert reviews carry real caveats that prevent a stronger endorsement. JANG (78) appreciated the color coordination and functioning pullback motor; Brickset (65) flagged a genuine safety concern (the rear gear mechanism pinched fingers twice during testing) and noted the play value fades quickly for adults. Owners rate it 4.79 out of 5 across 494 ratings, well above the expert consensus, though LEGO's own value_for_money signal (4.0 out of 5) and would-recommend rate of 88% are the more measured signals in the dataset.

LOVED (7)

01Rare trans-medium blue bricks integrated cohesively into the color scheme
02Pullback motor functions effectively on hard floors when drivetrain is properly assembled
03Stunt ramp with rubber stopper feet stays stable during use
04Sturdy construction that withstands repeated wall-bashing and drops
0540th anniversary printed white Technic lift arm included, accessible at budget price
06Can combine with Stunt Truck (42059) to build an alternate six-wheeled vehicle
07Three stickers dramatically improve finished appearance

CRITICIZED (7)

01Rear gear mechanism can pinch fingers and was flagged as a potential hazard for small children
02Drivetrain requires careful assembly: overtightening bushings causes friction and slows the bike
03Cardboard ramp bows outward after assembly and offers limited stunt variety (jumps only)
04At $0.143 per piece, value for money is below average for Technic at this scale
05Play value is limited from an adult or AFOL perspective
06Runs poorly on carpet; hard floors are required for the pullback to work effectively
07On its own (without the Stunt Truck combination), performance is noticeably weaker

What reviewers are saying

"It's a small technic set and it has a pullback motor built into it."

JANG's LEGO Reviews

"I have always viewed the Technic range with a half open eye. Some sets however have leapt out at me as must haves."

Brickset Reviews

Ecosystem

Stunt Truck (2017 Technic pullback set) — The reviewer mentions a combination model can be built using both the Stunt Bike and Stunt Truck together, and notes the Truck has a different color scheme that looks like it's from the 1990s, but applauds the varied color choices rather than always picking the safest options.

42046 Getaway Racer and 42047 Police Interceptor — Like those 2015 sets, Stunt Bike can be combined with its partner (Stunt Truck) to create an alternate model. However, this year's sets are marketed around stunt ramps rather than just racing.

2015 Technic Racers — If you have already got a Technic Racer or two and loved them, then this is more of the same. However, aesthetically, neither Stunt Bike nor Stunt Truck are as pleasing as last year's racers.

2002/2003 Technic bikes — The wide tires and long chassis make this one look more blocky; predecessors looked better proportionally.

Rubber stopper bushings on the ramp base
Provide friction and traction to keep the ramp stable during play, preventing it from sliding excessively

What Owners Say · summarized from 7 written reviews (LEGO, Amazon, Walmart)

Owners praise the attractive design and fun building experience, with good performance when combined with the Stunt Truck, but note performance issues when used alone due to gear friction and durability concerns with the cardboard jump.
