Wanted: Stabilisers

[winjim]

Just thought I would check before I buy new, does anybody have a set of stabilisers knocking about that they no longer need? I'd be glad to take them off your hands. To fit a Ridgeback MX16.

TIA





I am familiar with the concept of a balance bike and am also in possession of sufficient mechanical ability to be able to remove pedals/a crankset.

Cue a torrent of replies advising that having stabilisers is the wrong way to learn to ride a bike ...

I know, hence the footnote. I mean I once asked for recommendations for a shopping trolley and got a suggestion to try a balance bike so...

Fell off a few times when I first started riding in a group. They had discussions whether to buy me a set of stabilisers or not. That was round about the same time as I learnt to sew. That saved me a lot of time hanging around at A & E waiting to get stitched 😉
