Possibly looking for a full susp bike for my son .
He is 11 but is on the taller side for his age ( arnt they all now )
Any good models to look for if I buy second hand .
Don’t want a new heavy thing he won’t ride .
Cheers in advance

    Usual problem impossible to answer if you don't say what you can afford,there are some great ones for £4k and up

    First why a full susser, better value with a hardtail as you will be selling it on fairly quickly as he outgrows it.
    What is he planning on riding and a budget.
    Now where's that "Get Out of Crash Free Card"

    You will get a lot of bike for £500 if you know what you are buying, I am NOT a biker, I did a lot of research and question asking before having a £2.8k build, but I would never have bought on my own, I assume you know bikes unlike me
