Thought I'd post a little update. I ended up finding a REALLY great Diamondback hybrid that fits her perfectly. And I mean perfectly. I got it off of craigslist for a song. It's a steel frame, and has low-end shimano components with a well-fitting youth saddle. The guy I bought it off of is a bike mechanic, so he has it tuned up nicely. Really, it was luck that I found it and had the time right then to go test it out. Luckily, the weather broke yesterday afternoon for a few hours (like many of you, we're in a heat wave), so we were able to take it out last night. The daughter is very pleased. So am I. Thanks for all of the suggestions. Actually, in looking at the Felts, I fell it love with one for myself.![]()
