Hi there, I am a local reseller of second hand kids bikes. It depends on your child?s height but at four they are generally ok for a bike with a 16 inch wheel. Important to check though as getting a bike too big will put them off riding for years. The recommendations on brands above are good. Halfords do (Or did) sell some good bikes though. Carerra are ok. Bit heavier than Ridgeback. Avoid Apollo as said above. If you can get hold of a Wiggins Macon 16 then that?s a great bike that Halfords have now discontinued. You can pick them up for between ?50 to ?130 on eBay and are as light as the more expensive frog brands. High spec components too. Depends how much you want to pay, really. Ridgebacks are great and cheap second hand if you are patient on eBay. The dimension model is the lightest bike they do and again is only slightly heavier than a Frog. If you want to buy new but don?t want to spend ?350-400 for Frog or Islabikes then there are a lot of good challenger brands available now on the lightweight market. Forme and Squish Good examples and go new for around ?250 ish. If you need more advice on size etc just pm me. Thanks. Mark
