That'd be far better than either of the Dawes ones. There's a lot of them being used in Under 8's racing.
7yr old son wants a road bike :D

I said it was quick
Oh no, just measured little one and he has an inseam of 21" - fine for standover on a 24"MTB but not enough for the little Mini Moda!
Only 20" road bike I can find is a Dawes with the handlebar mounted shifters but I'd really like to keep his hands near the brakes as this is first road bike and first geared bike! - Anyone know of any diddy ones (that aren't Viking!)

You could always adapt a bike. Find one of the right size and fit the shifters to suit yourself [or more importantly him]. It doesn't have to be expensive components - shifters cables [if they can't be altered] handlebar tape etc can all be found on E Bay at low prices [and I mean a few pounds]. Plus he will enjoy helping you build it.
That's a brilliant idea, I know he'd love that as well - i'm not very technical though, may have to talk Grandad in to taking on a project!
