Anyone know where I can get an isla suitable 16" front wheel. (I asked a few weeks ago)
As suggested I tried ilsa but for safety reasons the won't sell me one. They didn't see or witness what caused the original buckle but have deemed the bike a right off, quick Google seems to indicate this happens a lot.

So anyway anyone got any ideas where I can get a 16x1.35 wheel? Please.

Its going to be rim brakes and QR which will help Im guessing? All you need to know is the hub width and google for 16" kids wheels that have a QR and the right width. The only thing to watch for is that many kids wheels will be radially laced to save cost. That will reduce the strength a fair bit. a 2 cross would be stronger like this bonty one: https://www.tritoncycles.co.uk/components-c9/wheels-c126/bontrager-jet-16-kids-wheel-p40645/s107933?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=bontrager-jet-16-quot-kids-wheel-sizes-front-colours-black-sizes-front-colours-black-w332668&utm_campaign=product%2Blisting%2Bads&cid=GBP&glCurrency=GBP&glCountry=GB&gclid=CjwKCAiAmsurBhBvEiwA6e-WPN3T_VbSePcr6dq19qhHxbH9JErFjGkTYnt4nzest_5bdV__aPk7AxoCYYUQAvD_BwE
