Suzanne,
Just curious - which Trek did you get? And is it a 43 cm with 650c wheels? I am also 5' tall, and I think that would be the right size for me, but LBS doesn't have any that small for me to try.

Milkbone...I just got that bike a couple of weeks ago. I like it a lot, although due to weather I haven't been able to ride all that much...just enough to know that I need A LOT of practice handling that bike! I was scared of the pink and black, but dangit...I like it!

I doubt Suzanne will reply since she has not been on the board since March 2002.

I love it, too! I took it out just around the neighborhood today for a spin, the roads are rough asphalt - so not much of a smooth ride, but it was still great. I working the night shift now so, can't wait to get back to day shift in another week and get to take it out more. Instead of sleeping all day like a vampire. LOL I need a lot of practice too, and I just love the pink on black, even got pink gloves to go with : ) Originally Posted by cyclinnewbie

5' tall and nothing at all
Just wondering if you found a good fit - and if so, what is it?! I too am looking for a bike and having trouble getting to ride because the shops don't have many in my size. That might be an issue with the time of year for me but I was wondering how you made out.

I have been guilty before of not checking that little detail.

Timbo80 has been waiting with bated breath since 2001 for an answer on her question as to which bike to get. Unfortunately, now she's simply too old to ride anymore. I heard she's getting a 9 speed wheelchair though....
