Quote from: clipperjay on 21 April 2012, 10:07My little daughter is 6 and we had a nighmare finding a small girls bike she had a 12" Rallye one lol and grown out of it I had to raise the seat and handle bars to their max and her little legs suffered from small crank shaft.So wife asked me to find a secondhand one as she was only going to last for 18months. We looked at loads of shops and all came to £150 In the end I ebay a few and one came up saracen poppy 16" 9" ALu frame. Well anyways I said max bid for it £35.00 and women bidders road me hard, I paid £31.50 @ 5 seconds to go 8 bidders in total, remind me never to go up against women bidders they are animals! You should have a look at all the Facebook selling pages, it gets properly fierce on them!!
