No bikes for short girls

[Takemusu]

It's now 2022. In 2022, who makes bikes for 4'10" to 5'1" females with short arms? I know Geogena Terry does custom but pricey. Also, I crashed my 1999 Georgena Terry 16" Trixie (hot pink) and am seeking to buy another one in the USA. Thanks.

I’m looking through the forum and I know we did several deep dives into bikes for vertically challenged riders. I have a few of them myself. But those posts would be pretty outdated.

I’m 5’0” which normal wingspan for my height but teeny princess tiny hands. My road bike is full custom (and no longer available because the builder is retired). I also have and love a Salsa Vaja & Soma Buena Vista Mixte. If I was going custom today I’d look at Rodriguez or Terry 1st. Georgina is still building and sells some curated bikes used;

I'm of the opinion that you don't necessarily need a WSD bike. You need a YOU specific bike. That can be full custom or it can be one you've modified, adjusted to your needs. My road bike is full custom but my other bikes are stock then tweaked to meet my size and needs: shorter cranks, adjusting or replace drifters, shorter headset etc.
