Considering a 16" bike for a 4 year old to race BMX. Is this a mistake? He's too short for a mini and a micro isn't gonna last long. He's currently riding a 12" hotrock at the track and having a blast but needs something more stable.
Opinions?
Please see thread about "Redline Pit Boss".

Thanks,
Eddie

Thanks.
I actually just picked up a used one and it seems pretty light. It's still a little big for him but he'll certainly be riding it before he can handle a mini.
Thanks for the interest and comparison.
