    Bike fit

    Good advise so far. If you pick up an ill fitting bike you will run into some pain after putting in some miles. The more you ride the more you will notice it. I rode a 16" MTB for years but didn't ride far and didn't realize how poorly it fit until I test rode a 14" Kona MTB, I'm 5'4" with a shorter torso. I don't ride off road much any more and am finding the Kona with slick tires is too long to the bars for bike path and road miles so I'm switching to a steel touring bike. The right bike for the type of riding you do can make a difference. I could have gotten a women's geometry MTB and put slick tire on it but I 'd like to eventually tour so I'm trying to think ahead.
