Hi

I am looking to purchase a bike suitable for a tall 5 year old who is learning to ride. An 18" or smaller framed 20" would be ideal.

Let me know if you have anything suitable that you're looking to sell.

Thanks

King's Auctions in the British Legion Hall usually have bikes. They have a sale on Saturday.

I would definately go for an 18" wheel rather than a 20" as it is harder to learn on a bigger bike. Also keep the saddle low to begin with.

I have a 20" Giant Taffy (11" Frame FYI) but unfortunately it's a purple girls bike. You are more than welcome to it if you want to paint it. Hasn't been out of the shed for a couple of years so £20 would do. I do think you should go smaller to be honest though. Good luck! Am away til the 13th now just in case.
