My son currently is riding a carrera blast that I upgraded when he first had it. I am looking for something sized as above for around £300 - £400 any deals you have come across would be greatly appreciated or I may look second hand too.
TIA.
I was going to recommend https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/brand-x-ht-01-27-5-hardtail-frame-2019/rp-prod130452 but they're out of the small size.
Do look secondhand - I sold XS Trek Superfly 6 (Reba, SLX everything, light) at a year old for £500.
I bought XS Giant Liv Lust with full Deore and SLX, Fox 32 etc for £750.
A peruse of FB groups and pink bike reveals a few.
Decathlon rockrider st520 or 540, my 12 year old daughter is using my wifes, been a cracking wee bike.
I used to work for these guys, they usually have all sorts of sizes available
I just Purchased a Trek Marlin 5 2019 new from ebay for £250 for my 13 year old daughter I was trying to stay under £300. If you can wait the right thing will come on Ebay.
When my lad was 11 we bought him a 27.5 small framed Orbea mx
At first a bit big but soon grew into it.
It’s been a great little bike and now passing it on to his little brother who is now 11
