    My daughter <snip>
    I want to get her a bicycle for general exercising purposes,but because of her height. I cant seem to locate one.
    I think she needs a 12.5 or 13.5 inch frame with 26 inch wheels.
    I would ideally like her to be able to try the bike out before purchase, and I dont want to spend too much. Im thinking around 200euro because I want to make sure it works out before spending any more than that.
    I have tried Halfords and another well stocked local bike shop but no luck.
    I live in the <snip> region.
    Appreciate any help anyone can offer me.
    Thanks in advance.

    might not be much help, but you could try send an email to Cycle Superstore Sales, Gary Byrne sales1@cyclesuperstore.ie . He has been quite helpful to me about bike sizing.

    Dont know how much help it will be though

    Good Luck
