Yep similar situation minus the vomit. I held onto the longjohn for a year for the reason of trying more and for us just still is not working. Versus putting her behind and we can go for hours without complaining. I have decided to just lean in and invest in improving the setup she likes. Funny story I bought the orbea katu from a family that where upgrading to a bullet. The kid was not getting on with the bullet and threw a screaming fit when we picked up the bike 🤷🏼♂️

This is very true, my youngest loved sitting in the bullit whilst I built it, couldn't wait to get in it for a ride, but first trip didn't go great and she would have a panic attack (spontaneously throw up) on mere sight of it for a whole year. I gave her a 4 month break from any attempts and ever since she gave it another shot slightly older she's loved it, years later her little sister never had an issue.
Couldn't be happier with the bike but for that year I sincerely wished id taken her out for test rides on every config possible and gotten her feedback directly at the time.
