And speaking of Early Rider, anyone on here with Belter 20"? The 4-speed hub seems ideal but I've never seen one in the flesh. The Seeker 20" is probably too moutainbikey for our needs.
We've got the older Seeker with 3sp hub gear and big mechanical discs. Good bike, hub gear works beautifully, but previous owner had it serviced just before he sold it. Smaller hands might struggle with the grip shift but Ezekiel's been great with it aged 6 onwards.
I think we could live with that, as long as the brakes' ergonomics are good. He's currently on a Islabike and he can stop on an øre / sixpence, I'd like to keep it that way for peace of mind. There's a big jump in weight between the 2 but I guess that's unavoidable
Strong start. Local classifieds?
