My kid wants to give a go at a road bike - problem is, he's small, and young...
They just don't make many very small framed bikes anymore - those that do, are not cheap.
I've looked around craigslist and such and haven't found much in my area (Sacramento, CA).
I love the Felt F24 (I ride a Felt) - but too pricey new.
Trek made the KDR1000 a few years back, I don't see it any more, and haven't found any used ones around.
Fuji makes the ACE, again, not terribly cheap and I don't really like the stem mounted shifters.
Any suggestions from this crowd on a 43cm/650c or 24" road bike for a kid?
