No bike
O
(one that had been scaled down for women), it wasn't a "woman's bike" (the kind with with the top bar dropped down so that you can step through it easily). those bikes came about when woman wore dresses. they are not so you can get your leg over easily. they only make them on cheap bikes so they don't have to make many frame sizes. they are usually lower quality and far weaker and heavier bikes. -- Knight-Toolworks & Custom Planes Custom made wooden planes at reasonable prices See http://www.knight-toolworks.com For prices and ordering instructions. |

Many moons ago, he owned a bike and backpacking store himself . He's looking for certain features in bikes that many of the lowest-end bikes don't have. In our area, we're lucky, though: There's a gentleman who owns three well-respected bike shops. The shops carry bikes in a wide range of prices and features -- not just the the highest end bikes. I'm planning on looking there next; my husband has done some scouting already. this will get you a far better bike then a crappy walmart bike. Plus one that fits and has a service backup. you will enjoy riding it far more then one that does not fit. -- Knight-Toolworks & Custom Planes Custom made wooden planes at reasonable prices See http://www.knight-toolworks.com For prices and ordering instructions. |

Anybody who would pay those kinds of prices for a bicycle is out of their minds. You can pick up a Huffy for a hundred bucks or so. Hell, at your big box stores, they have "no name" brands for around $50. try riding a hundred miles at a time on that huffy. I bet you can't. I ride 100 miles or more a week on my road bike. comfort and the right fit are critical to the enjoyment of cycling. -- Knight-Toolworks & Custom Planes Custom made wooden planes at reasonable prices See http://www.knight-toolworks.com For prices and ordering instructions. |
