Lol. Why not just ask your kids tailor for their inside leg measurement?
What, some people don't have a personal tailor? Pff peasants. Let them sit on the spine of a book then.

20” no suspension.So time for a new 24" for the girl as her younger brother has stolen her bike. The question is, is there any value in a suspension fork on a 24" bike? She has been on Commencal Ramones for last 2 bikes & the rigid is $750 or go for a Kona Honzo 24 for about $1000 with an 80mm Suntour fork.
Would love a midway bike from Commencal but its $750 for the Ramones to $2300 for the Meta.

Cheers Creaky, had not noticed the coil fork, daughter is a feather weight but given her brother is a bit more of a tank and will steal it eventually, becomes more of a ?If it’s a coil fork then probably not ideal on a 24” as heavy and unless your kid is on the more solid side it’s probably not going to move all that much.
Yeah, the manitou seems to be the primo one. I forget what the one on the giant xtc 24 is. The rebound damping is far from effective but at least it moves up and down!Cheers Creaky, had not noticed the coil fork, daughter is a feather weight but given her brother is a bit more of a tank and will steal it eventually, becomes more of a ?
The Manitou 24 Junit fork seems to be the fork of choice for 24" bikes but comes at a big price jump.
Possibly some sort of suntour unit, a mates son has a 24 xtc with something similar.Yeah, the manitou seems to be the primo one. I forget what the one on the giant xtc 24 is. The rebound damping is far from effective but at least it moves up and down!
It's well down the list of priorities unfortunately. Was never going to be anything pretty mind you, was planning on going the full janky route... Basic plan was/is to machine off the axle mount and make up clamp on axle mounts (including the brake mount on the LH one) then can slide the axle mount up or down to suit different wheel sizes. I think my idea is less jank than that BMW thoughPossibly some sort of suntour unit, a mates son has a 24 xtc with something similar.
I wonder how @dazz is going with the old magura I sent him to try modifying for a kids fork, he's been pretty quiet lately.
