The 14" is a perfect fit for my almost 4 year old and should still fit him for a while yet given he is at the lowest end of the seat post. Now a couple months in, I have to say the bikes were definitely worth the money! The boys love them and the knobby tires allow them to ride all terrains.
I have yet to install the Magura brakes as I found I was able to use the Shotgun Pogies without the brakes to keep their hands warm on winter rides (see pics). I doubt the pogies will work with the brakes, but won't know until I get them installed. Would be nice if they did though as the cold is really the only thing stopping us from riding these bikes year round.
The only improvement/upgrade I would suggest is consideration for a kickstand on these bikes. I worry that the handlebar grips will wear on the ends when the boys lay the bikes down to explore by foot (which is pretty often with toddlers). I haven't managed to find…
