My 9almost10 year old girl is already 5' tall, mostly leg. When we went to the LBS today she was obviously too big for a 24" 'kids' bike. The 26" bike they wanted to put her on was a Giant Boulder w. I like the price and it fit her well but it's heavy as a tank. The big chunky suspension fork is a complete waste given her slight 70lbs. Looking around all I see are suspension forks these days. Does anyone make a kids' or womens' specific 26" multispeed "mountain" bike without the suspension fork?

Thanks,
Don
