I believe he's about 5'6", which I suppose puts him in the short adult category. I imagine he'll at least be 2" or 3" taller come time for the ride, which is May.
Thanks for the input!
Maybe go to the C&V forum here and post in the sales forum that you are looking. Give details on frame size, buy price, and what you want for equipment(modern only or open to whatever). There are a lot of posters with a ton of bikes that arent ridden- both c&v and modern. Someone may have something that would work and it would likely sell for less than what the same bike would on ebay.
