Quite a few bike stores now stock 'RunBikes' (the generic term). I've seen at BSC QV and Eliz St. BikeForce Richmond. Varying prices, which thankfully in the past few yrs, have come down quite a bit. A bit over $100

I sourced mine from Aldi a few years back. $70 Knowing Aldi, if it's like their other stuff, this will be one of their weekly specials about once or twice a year. Target had some Dora ones recently.

Kids can use them from when they can stand on the saddle, flat footed. For mine, in its non-modified format, that was about 3 yrs (she's petite). However, I flipped the frame and dropped the saddle by about 10 cm (a semi-common mod, I believe) so she was 'walking on it' from about 2.
