My nephew is 4 this month and well into his bike. He has an 20" Islabike and loves a 5miles cycle ride of a Sunday. He's got helmet gloves and the bike obviously - what's worth buying for him (as uncle convert is into bikes it's expected it'll be bike themed)? £30 odd. Ta.

Lights . there is never a wrong time to give a 4year old a torch
He can always ride in the house with the curtains drawn.

Fox peewee MX / kids downhill top. My four year old nephew loves his. As does my four year son and my 8 year old son.

Always known as Foxy top.

Thanks for the ideas.

The jump - I had thought of making him a wooden adjustable number but a plastic job might last better - [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rampage-Mini-Airbox/dp/B000N4SAHI/ref=pd_sim_sg_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=1H9KV73QD3F4WZ4VD2Q8 ]like this.[/url]

No idea they did mini camelbaks - that might be good too.

Might save the lights for Christmas.

He is well into dressing up (and seemingly gender blind - have you ever seen a 3yr old boy, dressed as a nun riding a bike before?) so a [s]clown[/s] downhill top would probably go down well too.

It's ace having a proper bikey boy in the family - years of cool present buying and adventures to come!

Mini Camelbak went down very well with my little one. The massive absolute favourite was the Orica-GreenEdge strip - but then he likes watching road racing on TV - he insists on wearing it whenever he's on his bike.

Endura Rainbow glasses are a great fit on little faces too. Mutiple tints available - about 15 quid and come in a proper case with bag etc

cheap "action camera" so he can be the new youtube sensation?

Any excuse to post this pic of my eldest shortly after his 4th birthday:

plastic jump or a basic cycle computer, my 5 year old loves to see how far he's gone and how fast he's going.
