I've noticed that the children of Asian immigrants often reach Anglo-American size after being raised on Anglo-American diets; don't know if this is due to hormones and chemicals or simply to meat and dairy (I'm half Asian; my 17 y o daughter, 3/4 Asian, -- Chinese, Filipina, WASP --is 5'7" with Anglo and not Asian build). And some children grow fast, others more slowly. I reached 5'7" by the time I turned 13, 5'9" before 15, and grew 1-2 more inch/es thereafter, while my brother, almost 6 years younger, was much smaller at 12 and 14, and then passed me at a 2-inch-per-year rate for a couple of years thereafter -- he's now 6'2" or 3".
Bike content: Parents and children and bicycles. My father was a B 17 waist gunner (shooting 50 calibers out of a hole in the side of the plane at 25K feet over Germany) and toured the southern English countryside on a bicycle on off duty hours. He later bought an "English racer" for commuting as a GI-bill student at GW in WDC. He bought me several bikes, but that which most stands out is the 3/4-size DL-1 clone, made by Hero, for my 11th birthday; even more, the upgrade for bday 12, with full scarlet paint, gold pinstriping, and mirabile dictu (Bangalore, 1967, twas a *total* tech backwater) a AW hub.
