If I could have gotten away with it I would have reposted the first look with a paragraph about upgrades and a comment that Claire LOVES. this bike. She’s four.
Conversation (~) in week two of testing:
C: “Papa, do you have to give back the brown bike?” (Chameleon)
A: “Yes, as soon as I’m done the test.”
C: “Why?”
A: “It’s not my bike, I just borrowed it for awhile to write about it.”
C: “Hmmm. If you don’t give it back does someone come take it?”
A: “...”
C: “I’m not giving back my test bike.”
...
Claire’s very cautious by nature and (of course) doesn’t remember how many hours over two sizes of runbike it took to get up to ripping the pump track. She figured out riding a pedal bike quick but as I said, the pump track has been a hell of a transition (two different pedal bikes).
We’re almost there (I’m still doing a lot of running along for random stalls) and I’m really excited for when it clicks.
I’d definitely look into a taller rider bar, especially for pumping, if the stock fit is at all questionable for you.
I’m positive you guys will be stoked! Enjoy.
