Thought that there might be some mothers out there to help me figure out a bike for my 10 year old. She is 4'8" and her inseam is about 23". I'm looking for something that is not a mountain bike. She wants to ride on the paved trails and wants something faster than knobby tires and not fixed gear. A hybrid would be a good bet for her, but not sure if they make them in her size. I'd like something that she can grow into over several years rather than replacing it in a year or two. I've looked on my local craigslist VERY thoroughly and cannot find anything. Any suggestions before I head to the LBS? I'm willing to pay a few hundred unless it's something that will last years and years. Thanks!
