I did my research and rode a lot of other bikes, but I bought the Diva new on Ebay without ever having ridden one. I understand my geometry stuff and took a big chance, betting that the top tube length and headtube length would be a great fit for me. I just wanted to put this out there because I'm sure there are quite a few women with similar proportions that have had the same fit problems. Also, it's hard to find a women's specific frame in a larger size.
Thinking about buying my Girlfriend a 53 Diva....short torso - 33.5 inch inseam - 5'9"...concerned about the saddle height compared to handlebar height - don't want her to be too hunched over....What's your opinion? Do you think it may fit?
