Bikes for daughters

[VEX]

So my two daughters are just outreach for 26" wheeled bikes.

The eldest is at the seat post limit of her 24" bike and the younger is going to he half way into a 24" straight away so to me it makes more sense to get her on a 26" wheel as well..

A quick visit to the bike come car come camp shop confirms the youngest would fit on a 13/14" frame and the eldest on a 15/16" version, but what to get.

Now they are in bigger sizes we are happy to look at lighter alloy bikes, but still only want to spend £300 each absolute max, ideally closer to £200.

What's out there, what's recommended, it's been ages since I have looked seriously at bikes.

Thanks, yes Frog and Isla look like good ones for them. And the resale helps the outlay.

Local shop is a Frog dealer so we'll have a visit there this week.

Do the main brands do anything similar to Frog and Isla?

Thanks, we all love cycling so they will get used for at least the next 4 - 5 years.

But the riding will be basic, trials, canals and cycle paths, so at the moment we don't need full on MTB's just a lot closer to the hybrid, path bashers.

Thanks everyone.

Two Frog bikes have been ordered fro Mr Corley in MK and hopefully they'll been ready to collect next weekend.

Will post up happy daughter pics when we have them.
