I wanna girl' bike (age 4-6) cheap please

Hello all (1st ever post) I'm looking for a birthday present for my little darling. Don't want the very first size bike but the next one up. Anyone found any recent bargains?

Thanks :heart2:

    Hi there! My first post too! Just wondered if you were after a new bike or if you would be interested in a 2nd hand one? It's just I have one that I brought for my daughter...I think it is an 16" wheel one and she only used it a couple of times and it has been sat in the shed ever since! I could pop you a photo if you were interested; I too live in Bristol! Let me know if you are interested! Kind regards, Donna

    Hi superkeen2save and donner_kebab,

    Welcome to MSE :)

    I'm really sorry, but exchanging personal details is discouraged on mse, see here for more details.

    There is an older thread with hints and tips on buying bikes for smaller children that may help you: bike with stabilisers for three year old

  • Hey Pink-winged. Sorry to breach the MSE protocol on my first go. There's so much great stuff on this site that I must admit I've only scanned the FAQ and newcomer sections so I'd better do this quick!!
    Do you have an amazing memory to recall older threads or is there a search option I haven't found yet?
    Thanks for helping us new girls

    Hi superkeen2save,

    The best place to get help with posting on MSE is sra's Unofficial A-Z. In it you will find a search guide which will help you find older threads. If you have any problems, let me know and I'll help if I can. :)

    Hi again superkeen2save and donner_kebab,

    There is absolutely no need to appologise. It's obvious you are both new to MSE and weren't aware of what we can and can't post.

    I felt dreadful for pointing out the rules just after your first posts, thank you both for being so good about it.

    Thanks for being so understanding Pink-Winged! I only just found this site (after buying the book!) and I am so glad I did; I have found loads of tips here already, and thought after I put my first post up that perhaps we were not meant to! Must have been those ££££ signs in my eyes!
