Sorry this is going to be a typical husband talking on his wife's behalf thread.....

Liz (That's her name if it helps)wants a 5. Rides a Kona Dawg at the mo. but it has a high BB and standover and feels like she's on it not "in" it.

5'5" with (apparentlty) long legs 😛 and short back. Going to try a mates 16" in a few days and also a 2010 14" short Diva.

There's a 14" short going for £800 at Bike Scene. Too short? Any ideas?

probably, the 14 short is pretty tiny. My other half is also 5'5" and rides a 14 long (which is just the same as a mens 14), she test rode a 16 but was a bit too stretched out

+1 it'll be too short, my other half is 5'3" ish and is on a 14 long, she also gets on fine on my 16" with 50mm stem. I seem to remember there only being 10mm difference in TT length between the 14L Diva and normal 16" frame.
