Hope you bought him the UK model ;-)

Is it the picture or is his saddle a bit on the low side?

Most definitely. The US version has the Lardass [TM] saddle.

Bit of both. New bike, high BB, not too confident. He'll get there.

Yes, actually.

Just bought a Topeak Mountain Morph pump and Topeak Alien DX tool.

I see you followed my advice :-) A nice bike indeed. And Thomas'
comment was cool, Lance rides one as well!

Did you swap tyres for something a little more slick?

I can confirm that they are pretty kid proof, although Thomas has been
trained to prop it on it's stand rather than just drop it. Stopping
him riding up kerbs took a little longer (*&*%&&^* font suspension,
never had that when I were a kid...)

Kind regards,

Daren

PS 4.5 miles will be a breeze on that bike.
