My sons just outgrown a Carrera Blast 20"
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... tAodl0cAdA
and looking to replace it with another flat bar general use type bike. Can anyone recomend a decent 24" for him - can't afford Isla etc as top budget is £200? Nothing doing in 2nd hand that I can see (on here or ebay) and don't really want just get next size up in Carrera as that seems a bit boring. The Blast is Al frame and it makes a big diff to weight so don't want steel as steel kids bikes seem to all weigh a ton. Any advice experience apprecaited

don't they still do the Blast in 24" wheels too? My son has one, and to be honest, its a blast.
EDIT yes they do...

Cheers yes the 20" Blast we had served him well just fancied a change and/or wondered if better could be had anywhere. Searching around in the £150-£200 bracket they all seem much of a muchness though0
