I need some 24" disc wheels for my nearly 8yo daughter's bike. Not many about in this size from what I've seen, just wondering if anyone has some ideas for some? Cheaper the better, especially with Xmas approaching.

Different bike now, I need a 165x38mm rear shock for the giant trance my 12yo son has. Found one on wiggle for £99.99 but not sure if anyone has any better ideas or one in their spares box? Don't want to spend too much as I'm certain he'll be needing the next size up bike or frame by next year. The trance will then be kept for my daughter ready for when she fits on it.

Thanks

24” disc wheels - my garage - PM me.

The shock - ask nicely round Giant dealers. Lots of people upgraded the shocks at one time and I got a swapped out one for £50

Got a really, really old Fox Vanilla Float air shock. Needs bushes, and probably a service if anywhere does them still, but yours for nowt if you want it.

that trance can take the next size up, 165X44(?), which is easier to find and gives more travel
