That's a great retro build. I have an old mtb waiting for when my 8 year old grows a bit more. Couldn't pass up a super high end 1994 diamondback when I saw it on craigslist for $60 (even has some XTR bits!).
I will recommend looking at the Salsa kids mtbs. Rigid, 1x8, 20 and 24 inch wheels sizes that both take 3 inch tires. I think Giant also makes a plus-tire kids bike. The Salsa is a really incredible bike with extremely stable geometry. He loves how it floats on grass like a fat bike would but is still very fast on the street. I'll post a link from my computer in a bit. Brynnar Indy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
