Default 50 or 90, I Need Help!

I have two daughters (5 & 7) who I want to get a quad for. My 7 year old is tall for her age. I'm torn between a Scrambler 50 or Predetor 90. If I can limit the speed, is the 90 the way to go?

Help appreciated!

The main thing is just to see how they fit on the quad. You can always de-tune a 90 to keep the speed down, but you can't do much to make your kids fit on the seat and be able to reach all the controls. While it is tempting to get a quad that will carry your kids for years and years, an ATV is not something that you buy oversize to let your kids grow into.

You are much better off getting a quality bike that will be sized right and will hold it's value so you can sell it to move up to a bigger size when they are ready.

We have a pred 90 that our 11 year old, 6 year old and 5 year all use. We regulate the speed and it has the tether switch. With gear and full supervision, we have had no injuries or accidents.

As long as their fingers can reach the brake and thier feet can stay firmly planted the pred should be good....our crew is very tall to begin with.
