Wiggins Bikes

So far I've always gone for Islabikes for the childrens bikes, good quality, lightweight with a very good resale value.

Then there were Frog and Hoy bikes to take into account, slightly cheaper and with an unknown resale value.

Now there's Wiggo bringing out a range of childrens bikes that are being sold at Halfords!! I've had a look and they seem quite good, fairly light (8.8kg for the 20" model), proper shifters (no gripshift) but with a bizarre back-to-front fork.

How on earth do I choose what to get for their next bike???

    Bought MEKK Volante 24" for my boy a month ago. Wiggle is assembling them or should I say throwing together from parts bin :D Bike came out little over 10kg (Isla Luath 24" with road tyres is aroud 9kg), it has an adult saddle and white bartape gets dirty from contact with air, so upgrades are quite obvious :) Apart from these things, it's a quite good bike for price.
