All good points. 1. Saddle: I thought exactly this and raised it so that he's now on his tippy toes when his feet are on the ground. He continues to stand, but I do think his knees are better.
2. Brakes: They aren't rubbing, I checked. 3. I don't know how to describe the resistance i feel when walking his bike, but it reminds me of fishing. You know how some fishing rods are noisier and have more drag than others? Like that. He doesn't complain, but he is slow now and didn't used to be. He used to impress us on his little 16 inch bike as he was fast and could conquer hills. He'd tell us, "This is the best bike in the world!" He doesn't show pride or fondness for his Giant, though again, he's not complaining or identifying any problem. He's so tired by the end of that ride home. Of course he IS only a 1st grader, but I feel a little sad over it. Especially because I suspect he would have done better on the Specialized. Would it be helpful if I posted a video of how he looks on that bike? Maybe then I'd know if it is fixable or if I need to sell it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
