My boy is 12 and because dad rides bike he naturally has an interest.

So I have decided to buy him a bike, now the question is what bike suites him best. He is 12 and has no experience with bikes. I have decided I will be getting a small 650 to do some trail riding and he can come with.

I was looking at some second hand bikes but it always concerns me that they have been looked afer like crap, but looking at new bike prices I was at a loss, I am not prepared to spend R20k on a bike that he may ride for a week and decide it is not for him.. so I was looking at the Zooka pit bikes.. the CR125 or even the JNR100 which is only something liek R5k brand new, is this the wrong way to be going.. should I be looking at a seciond hand Yammie rather

Where do you think I should be looking
