lil ripper looks cool, but wouldn't fancy your chances of it lasting long in Dagger's.Quite expensive too over £200.
Love to have one of these for Harrison

Be careful as some of the 16 bikes are over engineered and weigh about as much as Josh, I've got 3 16 bikes all with different TT lengths 15.5, 16 and 17 inches

Hiya Nikki,

Matt has a Stolen Nipper as a pit bike, he'll have it at Cheddar so Josh can have a go on it and see what he thinks. Green Machine were doing good deals on them a while ago. Sure it weighs a fair bit more than his race bike, and mine too, but what do you expect they are park bikes. If I come to Hersden on Sunday I'll bring it with me there, but we've not decided if we're coming yet.

Miles.

Thanx Miles, we'll check it out but tell Matt not to say owt if u're at Hersden as we're planning it as a birthday present for Boo

Just been looking at the GT El Centro 16" as the Lil Ripper arrives too late, anyone got any thought of experience etc of the GT

If it's like Harrison's Bestwick GT will be very heavy, although I think the newer ones are lighter, that's the one with the 17 inch top tube, 14mm axles front and back, gyro, pegs the lot. Must admit the Hoffman is a good balance and think Josh has ridden it a few times aswell. Dont know where they get the weight figure from as 'H's weighed more without the pegs and front brake fitted.
