How small?

She's only 6, I think it may be too big but I like to plan ahead...

I made this for her - sparkly pink was the design brief lol

It measures 16" from BB to top of seat tube but there is a fair bit of standover on it. Can be run on 24" wheels

You cant see from the pics but it metalic pink

Abigale was 8 when she took it to Verbier and has grown alot since then

She turns 7 in February. 24" wheels could be a good move.

Can you send me photos and details please? Cheers

Lucky ladies! Good to sear some positive views on J.E. James for a change.

Nice one, I just moved near Kimberworth in Rotherham, wondering if there is any decent riding locally?

Wharncliffe is good, you can get over to Ladybower from Langsett via Cutgate which is one of the best Peak rides
