My hubby always insists that he knows all (gotta love the male ego) - usually however, in my hubby's case he's mostly right. He's the smartest person I know and thats straight from the heart.

QUEEN - (and JUJU) - bike being top heavy is not something I considered nor did my DH express it in those words so it made sense to me (he never gets why I don't always follow his train of thought - must be I'm a ditz). He just kept stressing a "smaller" bike. But I would hate to give up riding because of an uninformed decision on my part.

I will look at the Rebels (or something equal) and heed your advise. "Top heavy" is not something I am used to in any department.

Thats why I love you girls - you help keep me grounded
