I've always thought road bikes and high saddle/low bar hardtails were the best looking bikes, and so always had bikes like that.
However in hindsight my hobbit like short arms and torso were never really suited to them, so this time i decided to make the bike fun rather than pretty, and make it fit.
White small giant trance w from tree magnet (thanks!) and various other bits and here it is.
The stem is very short, a 70mm thomson will be my next purchase but i am doing some downhilly/techier than normal stuff this weekend…
ok ok it is a trance w, but it is identical to the blokes version, and i am comfy with my sexuality, however the wifes first words on seeing it were "oh look you've made a girls bike"…
she was talking about the low standover……. wasnt she??
it rides lovely, grin inducing bouncy, didnt break the bank.
let the mockery commence!
