Perhaps invest in a weekend "Grandpa Tune-up" involving the kid.

Are the tires good... two new tires as part of the tune-up? Other components? Updating shifters? Chain?
I wish it did, it's a 20" TMB frame, with an early suspension fork. It has an upper end Suntour system on it presently. Tires WERE good, can't say right now for certain.

She is 9 years old and 58" tall, 24" inseam... Or so her mom says. She is quite tall though. She almost fit my wife's 700C hybrid, but just not close enough to look at 26" wheeled bikes. I need to get her comfortable raising her seat though.

Grandpa time is coming. She has expressed an interest in longer rides.
