Which Ti Frame ?

Look at the Merlin Camena. Melissam just bought one and she's about that height or maybe shorter.

On Sunday I found out that I'm only 60.5". I didn't even make it to 5'1". OTOH, I weigh a bit more than 95 pounds.

Anyway, the Merlin Camena XS fits me very well -- maybe a little better than my 47cm Trek 5200 WSD.

nismosr, you might have your friend take a look at Habanero bikes. They could probably make a custom titanium frame at a price within her budget.

Happy shopping!

Are you doing yoga regularly? You might make 60.75".

I'll put it on my list of things to do.

- Melissa (who used to think she was 5'2" -- now *that* was a gross misrepresentation, wasn't it?)

Yeah, and yellow thought she was the same height as I.

If so, I weigh the same as she.












I wish.

You might look into a Ti-Cycles Hyak (http://ticycles.com/TiCycles/hyak_ti.html) A non custom frame is less than $2000, a custom frame is a little over. Even though they don't list it in their specs they have a 47cm frame with 650 wheels- I have one. It's not specifically WSD, but the geometry is compatible with us smaller women (I'm short and long legged, my race bike is a Specialized Ruby).
