Hi Modemmisuser,
Best of luck on your bar search and congrats to your spouse on her return
to cycling! I certainly endorse bar/stem swapping... both on the bike and
off the bike (via trades.) I have been in your scenario feeling 'meh' with
certain set-ups and previously bought some new parts
Oh yes, component specs can also certainly play a factor for anyone wishing
to adapt things further as the kids grow. Our REI balance bike frame takes
a 27.2 seatpost and 1" threaded headset with very short quill stem with
narrow diameter bar clamp (maybe 22.2 but haven't put calipers to it.)
We went from a 12" balance to 16" pedal and that transition worked out well
with one caveat - we used both simultaneously. I'd 100% agree with your
concern with quickly outgrowing a 14" as the seatpost is already maxed out
for our 6+yr old on our Trek Precaliber 16. I'd suggest checking out
