Youngest daughter is due to turn 7 in a few months time, she has a 56cm inseam so would fit a Beinn 24 well (recommended minimum inseam of 57cm).
I cant help but look at the Beinn 26 small, it does have a recommended inseam of 62cm but with the way she’s growing at the moment it won’t be long before it would be a perfect fit (taking into account its not her birthday until September).
She does a lot of longer flat rides (15/20 miles) so I’ve convinced myself the 26 wheel might be better? I know islabikes hold their value well but I don’t want to be swapping the 24 for a 26 in 6 months time. My lad on paper was better suited to a Cnoc14 but we had to exchange it for a Cnoc16 as it was too small for him.
Is the 26 worth a punt or should I go with the 24?
