I am in the same boat as Myles. Will be visiting Lynwood Cyclery next weekend where father Christmas may just be getting my wife and daughter a bike each.

Has your little one got a balance bike, or will this be her first? If she has a balance bike, then remove the fairy wheels from the new bike. They'll just hamper her development.

 

If not, then remove the cranks and fairy wheels from the new bike, and treat it like a balance bike until she has the basics down. Then put the cranks back on and let her rip!

My little girl is going to be 19months this month and was thinking of getting her a balance bike but there are lots out there.

 

What would you recommend?

This. MUNA balance bike, 12 inch. WONDERFUL piece of kit. Steel, pretty darn light, and solid as a rock. Can get them from Sportsmans as well as your LBS. Price around a grand. Alu version is just under 2k. Best money I've ever spent. 

 

Pneumatic tyres, proper rims, lekker geo. http://weebikeshop.com/store/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9d3afa3ebf271addf4f35c456aca09c7/p/i/pinkie_side_copy_1.jpg

I bought a set of craft elite bibs from a new shop in access park kenilworth. Some good opening specials specials there. The elites were R 500 each. They also stock MET helmets.

Shimano M8000 1x11 conversion for the my Scott Spark 930.  Went for a little spin yesterday.  Purring like a kitten.  Went for a 30T in front and 11/42 at the back.  Kept my SLX crank in place.
