looking for some advice here.

both my kids are a little bit short for their age, but.

8yr daughter is on a Spez 20inch/6yr son on a muna16inch

they both ride the 20inch now, but son is way more into cycling so it's a good bike for him. he wants to go smashing bikepark and do ramps.

I need to find something simple for her. She doesn't even bother with gears anyway and it's more just school and back/shops etc. My thinking is a 24 inch cruiser type bike would be easy to use.

where would i find a bike like this?

Two young girls ride bikes home from school in the Netherlands, safely on the cycle path, away from motor vehicles.

 

could have a 1x8 or be ss?

closest i can see is avalanche alphaone, but it's so similiar to their mtb types i might as well get the alu version. https://avalanchebicycles.co.za/junior-2021/#

my response to this problem was a little bit leftfield.

 

older sister can stay on her 20" bike for now and let's get something similiar but different for boytjie.

now that's an early birthday present and now sister wants a new bike too. I think a kickstand might actually solve the problem

i was being VERY sarchastic. it's an obvious marketing gimmick.

I have 2 tubeless 24 inch tyres to give away.  Was going to chuck them but if someone can use them drop me a message .
