so look at a new bike for my 5.5 year old, suitable bikes are the Isla Beinn 20 Large or Frog 55
He has an Isla balance bike, then we tried the Frog 48, to be honest no issues with any.
I opted with the Frog 48 after hearing good reviews against the Isla and the price for his first main pedal.
He went straight from balance to pedal with no issues, no stabilizers.
The thing that I am debating about most of all between the 2 choices us the gears.
Isla has grip shift
Frog as thumb leavers
Any advise? Personally I used grip shift on a specialized adults bike years ago and I like this compared to the thumb leavers, but for kids whats best?
