excuse me for hijack but I have a used musketeer trike like this if anyone interested. Only thing wrong with it is front basket bit bent (braking took a while to learn). I'm after £100 and you'd need to collect (herts)if you're interested.

what size child do you think it would suit? I'm looking for a trike for my son for christmas.. he's the size of an eight year old.

Was looking for trikes when I found the other quad bike thing

Ds is now 8 and it does fit him though with the seat right up. He used it from about age 4 and can now cope on bike with stabilisers. I think they do one a size up for older kids. If you're anywhere near you could pop round for a look or measure his inside leg and I could measure it against the bike IYSWIM.

just had a look at the others they do...my one may be too small as ds's new bike is 20" wheel and this one is only 14 so quite a lot smaller.

Thanks for checking, I checked the website and I think he would need the bigger size! especially as he's got an overgrowth thing going on and on top of that growing is his hobby ! wow aren't they expensive !

where did you get yours?

I ordered it online can't remember exactly which site but I think the prices are pretty much the same everywhere. Paid £250 for it- extortionate like many SN things but he had a lot of enjoyment from it. I rather liked the look of the bmx one if he'd still needed a trike but that is really very very expensive!
