I was thinking about keeping them on for that yes. We will see if I find the time :)
Well a second hand Earlyrider is probably your best bet until I start batch production of Tiny Lightning ⚡
This obviously my first attempt but I almost think it could be a viable business model doing Kids bikes out of broken steel bikes.

I have notifications set for Early riders on most local 2nd hand marketplaces, but nothing came up as of yet. Definitly interested in a batch model is you ever get it setup. Maybe not for the eldest, but there are 2 more who will also need bikes in time. :)
As for drivetrain, it would be nice to keep to standard or nomalised industrial parts. Forces on the parts would be low I guess so you would have a bit more freedom in design.
Some kind of modularity would be nice to have though, interchangeable chain rings considering wear. And the option to use 2 chainrings, where the outer would be a bash guard/protector.

Now that the eldest will be in need of a pedalbike soon, I am in constant state of letdown whenever I look up off the shelf models.
This will be all kinds of rad, are you going to make a rack for the repurposed mudguard eyelets?
