Well, I’ve finally been bitten by full suss bug (well, I think so – I haven’t actually ridden one yet!) So yep, mamadirt – you were right!
However being a 5’3 woman means the choice is definitely narrowed and so i was just wondering what STW women (of roughly my height) ride/ have ridden and like?
So far my shortlist consists of:
Orange 5 pro (14″ standard as think the diva will be too short)
Trek EX8 Wsd
Marin Mount Vision 5.8 (men’s as womens spec is only available in the 5.7)
Orange ST4 (probably 16″ as the diva version doesn’t seem to exist anywhere other than the orange website!)
Lapierre 514 L
I know they’re quite a random bunch, with some 120 and some 140 – but I don’t really know what I’m after yet. (But do have demo weekends of the 5 and Marin lined up soon)
Anyone got any of the above – how do they come up size wise? Any other recommendations?
