  1. Any thoughts on where I can get a kids road bike? I know they're out there (Merckx and Pinarello
    both make 'em) and there are USCF categories for younger riders, but I can't seem to find anyone
    that carries them.

    My 8 year old son is totally into road racing (knows the names of more pros than I do) and needs a
    road bike.

    Help!

  2. Felt is now making a youth racing bike. Check out feltracing.comf24.html My
    LBS actually had one of these in stock when I stopped by the other day. You might see if there are
    any Felt dealers around you.

    Cheers. -keith

  3. Check our Argon18 (based in Montreal), they have two kids bikes available. They have dealers in the
    US and shops in Canada that would likely ship over the border.

    I dont' know how big your 8 year old is, but a 24" wheel bike might be too big. The only lightweight
    20" wheel bike I know of is made by Author - <http://www.author.cz> - check out the Cosmic. It's sub-
    20 lbs, 20" wheels, and with road slicks would make a fair racing bike. I don't think it's available
    in the US.

    Take a look at www.chucksbikes.com. He sells an aluminum 24" Road bike in "kit form". That might
    work... Marvin

    YOu may want to check out the Cannondale line of women's bikes that come with 650C wheels.
