RAD..Lil D is back?! I have to find the mullet pics with the horns!
That last picture kills me - too cute.
Sweet. He has a good teacher in the shred department.chunga said:
cant help you there...
Have you checked Walmart or Fred Meyer? Not sure of any actual shops off the top of my head, but perhaps Greenlake Cycles would be a good place to start.chunga said:
Got Google?
Great...I'm making suggestions so that a 7y.o. can lay ownage upon me by the time he's 10.
Nice pics!
It's always cool to see the little rippers!
But, instead of buying him a full suspension bike, Get the kid a damn helmet first!

He's gonna lay some serious ownage on me as well.
Toys R us has a plethora of kiddie bikes. Full sussers? i donno.
5 yrs ol and he can manual and do no handers? Sick.

Curious as to why you wanna put him on a fully right away. Far and away the best Mt Bikers I know have BMX backgrounds. Let him master the rigid before moving him to the next level. But who am I to talk ... I ain't hit no 45'ers.
F'ng huge props to the boy - he's gonna be one mad dog when he hits double digits.

I gotta tell ya that I've got almost 5 years and 2 kids through a $99 Toys r Us full sus bike. Just make sure you pick all of them up first. Some are real heavy.( This one's a Pacific.)
I have the older one (10) in a Kona Hula now that was a hand me down from a friend's daughter who rides.
The 7 year old is already doing teeters and skinnies and will be passing his brother very soon.
The best 99 bucks I ever spent.

Anyways, sick pics! I agree - kid's a maddog!
I Wouldnt say a BMX, becuase that isnt a mountain bike. I'd say a hardtail Mtn bike. I am glad I learned on a HT because it taught me how to control my bike pretty good.BuddhaRoadkill said:Curious as to why you wanna put him on a fully right away.

16 inch HT with a 5" fork I'd say.
Even worse...he's still going to think girls are icky and he'll be master shredder supreme.chunga said:
I'll just sell my mtb's now and go back to road riding - HAHAHAHA!!
Enjoy the progressions he'll provide you.
I agree 100%.BuddhaRoadkill said:Curious as to why you wanna put him on a fully right away. Far and away the best Mt Bikers I know have BMX backgrounds. Let him master the rigid before moving him to the next level. But who am I to talk ... I ain't hit no 45'ers.

Forget the full suspension, get him to the nearest BMX track to race 5 & under novice! The little guys pic up skills pretty quick on a BMX track and is great fun.chunga said:
