can anyone advise me on which bike would suit my 7 year old daughter, wanting to start trials been watching bikes on ebay and only see beta 50's or ty80. I think the ty looks a bit heavy in comparison to the beta,is the beta rev 50 around the 2003 year any different in size to the beta mini trial ? havent seen either.
any thoughts on this one would be welcome

My lad is almost 10 and is on the Rev 50, which is perfectly sized for him. I think you would be better off on the Mini-Trial rev 'n' go 50 unless she's a very tall 7 year old...

thanks thats prob the best thing to do she is about average hight for her age but is quite small framed she has been riding a little pw50 so is not used to clutch and gears, but can race around with her cousins and keep up with the boys.i guess introducing gears etc and learning a new style of riding could be alot to take on.

If you're not in too much of a hurry, the new 20" wheel OSET will out in the spring. The OSET will be significantly lighter than a comparable petrol machine.
