Maybe a bit of a silly question, but anyway…
Friend of mine is wanting to get a new bike through Cycle2Work, think it will be mainly for road use but she wants a mountain bike (think it might get some cyclepath shredding etc), so she’s asked me for some advice.
Think she can get through Wheelies, Evans, and Halfords, and has a budget of around £600.
So question is as title really, do we need to limit ourselves to ladies bike? She is of fairly “standard” female proportions (ie not particularly short/tall/large/small), or will a small mens bike be fine?
What are the main differences normally- frame geom, fork stiffness, saddle?
Ta, Duane.
