My son would kill me if I sold it, although at 13 he is getting a bit big.

Watch out for the Chinese copies, people sometimes try and pass them off as real. Opinion differ as to the difference in quality, but they are worth less....

Thanks Jimbo~i was told the pw is the one to go for.

What age is best to start em? My 4 year old rides his push bike with no stablisers, even puts his knee out for corners, too much bsb!

I was told 5. I have two sons, a 4 & a 2 year old so would like to think it will get a good few years use between them.

Possibly cos they cost less

We've had one at home for the last 5 or more years. It's been hammered by my 3 lads (one of whom rode it into a ditch full, and I mean full, of water !), their friends & cousins as well as more than a few adults and it just keeps on rollin'

Eire1400 and Jockser ye really know how to cheer me up lol. My wife asked me if I was buying it for myself or the kids, "why the kids of course" I replied..

I bought a Honda QR50 for my lads when they were 5 and 7

They then started schoolboy motorcross on it and progressed to Kawasaki KX60's and KX 80's, so be warned it might not stop with a 50, my 'boys'are now 26 and 28!!!!!

There's no 'might' about it !
The kids biking is costing me more (tine and money) than my own
