Hi Francisco,
If what you needed was to find out if anyone had seen this already translated, I'm afraid you used the wrong forum. This is for help with translation of words or short phrases. You may try opening a thread in one of the other forums. Good luck!

I don´t know any official translation for this so it should stay in English.

"Michael fabricó una bici" if you need a translation, if it is for a Spanish publication, name should be also translated for the most easy reading of the children (Miguel for example).

Hi, Francisco
I can't find Jack Prelutsky's bicycle poem in Spanish on the Internet, nor any sign of a Spanish edition. However, while looking for it I did find this, which has something of the same appeal. It's from a blog on children's literature (with a link to Prelutsky's website, by the way), and this part is about a book called El Pampinoplas, by Carmen Armijo:
«La bicicleta salió algo original, pero andaba que se las pelaba. Me refiero sobre todo a cuando iba cuesta abajo.
—¡No vayas tan deprisa, Poliche, y tira de la cuerda hacia la derecha! —gritaba el abuelo, que iba sentado en la parte de atrás.
El abuelo y Poliche habían trabajado mucho para hacer la bicicleta. Todo salió a la primera, menos algunas menudencias: por ejemplo los pedales, que en vez de menear las ruedas meneaban el asiento arriba y abajo, arriba y abajo. Poliche se había pasado horas pedalea que te pedalea subiendo y bajando, subiendo y bajando.
—Te vas a marear —decía el abuelo—; quita, quita que lo voy a arreglar.
Y don Agapito, después de pensarlo mucho, decidió suprimir las dos cosas: los pedales y el asiento.»
