just won above Schwinn stingray bike. fetched it home tonight, now she's seen it my 10 yrs. old daughter wants me to check it over and let her have it as her bike so do I be a good dad and let her have it, and reclaim it when she tiers of it or stand my ground or use it as a good reason to keep looking for more???

Both.

It's simple there are a billion bikes out there, very few daughters. With any luck at all she will beat the crap out of it.

fully agree with the replies, thanks. I'll keep looking for mine, or carry on collecting bits and then one day I may find time to build for real, the bikes I have built in my head lol

I don't know about across the pond, but in the US, these are a dime a dozen. I picked up a nice one locally off ebay for $25! -Adam

not as common over here, so command higher prices. this was £50 about $85. can go for 2 or 3 times that.

Wow its funny the way the market is in different areas for the same bike.
Here on craigslist those style chopper bikes are $100-200 most of the time.
