Just bought an Islabike (16") for my son for Christmas, only cost a £100 from eBay and I'm hugely impressed. The build quality and components are lovely (proper bearings and everything). Also lots of really thoughtful details like scaled down tubing and gripson the handlebars so that small hands can use them.
Quite a few people at work have commented how it looks like an adult's bike but small - well, the ones that didn't ask if I ridden it in (yes - 20 miles on a 16" bike.... :shock: ).
So - just wanted to spread the love really. Hugely impressed and well worth the wonga, I'd say.
