When the kids are 8 - 10 most want grip to help give him confidence. When they have a few years experience to go quick you need to get rid of the grip to go quick but they have the skill/experience to handle it.

This is why the Lightening is so good and so popular. But make sure everything's straight.

The Hyraulic brake is the way to go but the kids needs to stamp on it a lot harder than the mechanical brake to have the same effect.

The other essential is to not compare your boy's times to a 12 or 13 years old or a kid being run by a professional team. Even when you have your best kit and the boy sorted there will be days when you will be more than second slower than them.

Unless you want to get your cheque book out and spend a silly amount of money this is the way it is for a cadet privateer.
