• We have an Early Rider balance bike and pedal bike - love that the pedal bike comes with a belt drive instead of a chain so I doubt our eldest or her younger sister will ever wear out the drivetrain.

    And the big corp. small bikes I have seen generally spec low cost shitty components - where Isla, Knox, frog early rider generally go out of their way to spec components that fit smaller hands etc. and are higher quality.
    Ime you definitely get what you pay for.

    These look fabulous, and agree on components. Ritchey bars! Maybe pushing it on price though and can't see many second hand.

    Currently a squish 14 can be had for £250 new so that's in the lead I think, if I can't find a decent cnoc/frog nearby second hand

  • Yeah, we bought a Belter 14", and I am really impressed with the quality.
    But I have yet to find a decent set of mudguards for it.
