Hub gears for kids

rally200

Anyone know of a hub geared 24" , rigid forked, ally, bike availlable in UK? or will I have to get something with dodgy front sus, and derailleurs?

Depends on your budget, but I suspect that you'll only find them somewhere on the continong, probably Holland/Denwmark or wherever

I won't mention Islabikes, even if they don't do kids bikes with dodgy suspension. Not even go as far as writing down www.islabikes.co.uk lest I be accused of having an Islabikes are the best value kids bikes anywhere fixation

I am looking at buying one of their smaller bikes and would love to hear if anyone has tried.

That's exactly the sort of thing I was thinking of - but quite a price tag. I suppose hubgear = +£100

How cool is THAT!? 7 spd hub AND a dynohub in the front? What more could a dad... err... I mean kid, want!?
