    Hi i saw this bike on a flyer of halfords, but it doesnt give size of bike, could you help in telling me what age roughly you would consider it 4. thanks Jacqui..

    I was worried for the exact same reaosn , its a standard sized BMX , I have just it for my 13 year old but it wouldbe ok for someone a few years younger too.

    I went to collect yesterday and they had sold one bike to three different customers and I wasn't the lucky one to get it so they gave us another better bike for the same price ... this bargain is gettng better each time I go in LOL

    not sure what size to get,my son has just turned 5 and hasn't hardly been on his 12 inch bike so should I get him the 14 inch or 16 ich...he needs the stabilizers on as he can't ride well at all
  • Received my Daisy bike also yesterday. Agree it does look good. Now in loft waiting for DD's birthday at beginning of December. :j

    I'm in the same quandry, looking for a bike for my 9 year old.
    basically the story i'm getting in most bike shops is go for the largest wheel size and get a smaller frame, so it fits with the seat as low as it will go.

    my lad fits a 24" wheeled bike easoly and looks right, bit in a year it will start looking small, so for him i'm going for a 26" wheel with a 14" frame.
    it looks big now and might cost a bit more but if it lasts twice as long, it's money well spent.
    halfords has some good deal at the moment for bog standard bikes.
    extra 10% off until next monday plus £20 voucher against any accessories.

    so in short, big wheels, small frame

    hope this helps
