Short and Sweet
« on: January 11, 2012, 09:22:21 PM »
Hi

I'm new to the forum!  Have been riding bikes off and on for about 15 years but still haven't got to the point of doing my test....yet...but working my way through from start to finish at the moment with my husband.  Should finish CBT in a week or two.

Then, we're going to need some bikes!!!!!

Anyone got suggestions for a short bike - something like 28cm from floor to seat off the stand.  Any ideas???

Hello  :thumb_up
Bikes don't leak oil',.... they mark their territory :o)           Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight. Growing old is manditory... but growing up...well that my friends...is OPTIONAL!

Welcome. I've obviously got completely the wrong idea about what a short bike is.

not too girly and certainly not a cruiser type with tassles and chrome everywhere or you'll end up a social outcast, this could be for you though :thumbsup
