[QUOTE="KeltWolf, post: 467285, member: 36095"] Hey all, Our son is 6 (50# 48") we bought him a PW 50 for his 5th birthday. He rode it all over for a year. This fall he found it was holding him back. We started looking at larger bikes and were leaning toward the XR 70. But, it was pretty tall and heavy. We ended up swapping with some friends whose son (6 yrs, 37#, 43") was too small for the XR 50 he had. Now both kids are thrilled and we can't get them off the bikes. Our son is racing the XR 50 this fall and is very confident. I guess the biggest point is that if it is his first bike, the MOST important thing is that he feel really confident. The XR 50 has LOTS of options to make it taller, the XR 70 is big for these kids....and cannot be made smaller. You can always trade it in if he truly outgrows it. Bt, if he gets turned off cuz it isn't fun, it's a big obstacle to overcome. "First impressions"..... :thumb: [/QUOTE]
