Melody, have you looked at Terrys? They come in a 16" size, which is actually a 40.6" frame. A gal in our bike club rides one, but she is more like 4'11". I am 5'2" and ride a 44 or 46cm frame, but it all depends on leg length. Good luck, and I hope you find something! Fit is #1, though, so you're doing the right thing. Don't let anyone sell you a bike that is too big for you!
