Afternoon all
Im trying to get Mrs houndlegs riding a bike. Over the years she's had a few bikes,always cheap hybrid type things,but it always plays her neck up. Now,toughening up isn't an option,so I've been looking at these sit up and beg things,you know the ones that might have a basket on the front.
Seen this one http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/raleigh-voyager-lx-womens-p269799 and it would fit the bill nicely.
Anyone have any experience of this bike or can recommend something similar ?
Its only ever going to be for bimbling along the canal and cycle tracks.
Cheers
I have sorted a couple of lady friends out with these:

They have been excellent bikes. Dawes Duchess
Bobbin Birdie looks lovely (retro lugged frame) and seems to get positive reviews. Reasonable too.

Do a search in the Internet for Dutch Style bikes ...
In the UK they can be very overpriced - so it might be worth trawling a few Dutch bike shops ....
