    I have been guilty before of not checking that little detail.

    Timbo80 has been waiting with bated breath since 2001 for an answer on her question as to which bike to get. Unfortunately, now she's simply too old to ride anymore. I heard she's getting a 9 speed wheelchair though....

    Which wheelchair did she decide to get? What color? I really don't want a pink one, but if it fits I'll try it. What components did it come with? Are the bars people push you with flat or have one of those curves? I heard the curves are important, but I don't know why.

    What kind of brakes does it come with? Will they fit it to me?

    I'm 5'1" and most wheelchairs are too big for me. I use the extra space to carry my water bottles. I'm pretty sure I'm not ready to go custom yet.

    Seriously, though -- AJH and GeoCam -- finding a bike as a petite woman is a frustrating problem that gets plenty of attention on this board. Just run a search, I'm sure quite a few threads will pop up.

    Good luck!
