[Xmetal]

[mad082]

[Ashy Larry]

[mad082]

Mad's

will need to stand down on the Bike Computer,

however I am looking for a bike for my son

20 months old, size of your average 3 year old.

[mad082]

just go into your local shop and they will hook you up with something. just make sure it has pump up tyres and steel wheels. 12" is the size you would be wanting. 16" would be too big.

[Flynnn]

with stabilisers attached on the rears

[mad082]

pretty much anything in 12" and 16" bikes comes with training wheels. but in my opinion you are best of taking them off before the kids gets the bike and teach them to ride a bike without them. they will learn to ride much quicker and they can become too dependant on them and won't ride without them

[mad082]

yup

Mate,

Bought a MASI speciale LTD fixed!

Couldn't find a cannondale CAPO 2009 in Melbourne.

I reckon the ratio is too low though, need something higher.

[Mr Eps]

umm don't they run a 48T / 16T????

and you want HIGHER?! if you want mroe speed i suggest you upgrade your tyres to vittoria rubino, or if you can afford it - open corsa...the zaffiro tyres run a bit soft and don't have that much puncture protection. rubino and open corsa's have nice TPI casing and kevlar strip. plus they look cool as shit.

as much as i wanna say "support your local retailer" - retail charge between 90 - 110 for these tyres, i pick up a PAIR from ebay for under 70AUD shipped. while it does hurt local industry, i am a consumer and will occasionally favour a "good deal"

and theyr'e in the new colourway too.

macdog for your bike... if you can still find them - ( would take a while) but get the vittoria rubino "celeste" colour. would go nicely with your frame

anyway - congratulations on your purchase you must be very happy with it!!!
