No....because isn't one of those in the photo your husband's anyway??Originally Posted by sandra
Doesn't it look like I need to sell one?
X- thanks for that seatpost tip. I will pass it on to my DH who is a whizz at comparing bike parts- he's my bike guru. This info is very good to know. I will check around for more info on that.
Yes I have long femurs and so I do need a further back seat than usual. My new bike will also be steel (TIG welded, not lugged), with a carbon fork- but I don't want a carbon seatpost fer shur....way too scary for me on those rocky roads I ride!
Interesting comparing inseams....
X is 5'6" with a 29" inseam.
Sandra is 5'5" with a 30" or so inseam.
I am 5'5 1/2" with a 32" inseam.
So...even though X is a half inch taller than me, my legs are 3" longer!
No wonder women have so much trouble getting bikes that fit well!
P.S. Sandra....don't ever change your avatar- I still crack up every time I see it. It's too much! :-D
