Small loaner cross bikes for youth program?

[Lister Farrar]

We had our first youth cross practice yesterday and were a bit overrun with new riders, so our loaner bikes are all spoken for, and more kids asking.

Cross for kids is like crack for addicts, so I expect loaners will be short term, and parents will buy as soon as they’re sure their kids like it enough to commit. We charge rent if someone uses a bike more than a couple times, so maybe a revenue source to justify that bike in the basement?

47-49 cm sizes needed. Also a 54cm.

I will wash and check and repair anything before returning.

Thanks all for the offers. We seem to have 49 cm sized kids covered, at least for now.

I'm still looking for a bike for 4'9" girl, (46-7 cm?, 650 wheels?) and for 5' 10" Spanish exchange student with tons of road racing experience, looking to try cross. 54 cm?
