Wanted: tiny bike My friend has enlisted me in helping her find or build up a bike, but I'm having trouble even finding anything her size. She needs probably as small as a 47 cm frame and no bigger than a 52 cm. Any leads/advice would be appreciated. |

what kind of bike? I have a nice small mtb frame looking for new home. it can do singlespeed but i dunno about 700c wheels.
well
She's liked riding fixed, but I don't think she's super picky; although I do think she's more interested in the road bike shhhtyle.
it doesn't get much more
it doesn't get much more stylish than this but to each their own :)
Post from another list:
"I was fortunate enough to upgrade my bike and so have decided to sell the road bike I used to get involved in triathlon. It's time for this bike to help someone else now!
Trek 1000
51 cm
Blue
incl. carbon fiber aerobars
recently tuned
platform pedals
Price: $300 (I have a buyer in another state, so this price is not negotiable).
I've ridden a 1/2 IM on the bike, but will fully admit that it is an entry-level bike and good for a beginner who needs time in the saddle more than performance. "
If you're interested I can get you her contact info.

I'd love her contact info.

$300. Maybe less $250-ish if it needs cables and brake pads.
I'll try to get by my storage unit tomorrow to check the size.
tried to email you
guess your address is no longer working.
Anyway: did you get a chance to check on the size of the bike? If not, if you think it's remotely the right size, we might could meet you at the storage unit so you don't have to make a bunch of extra trips. Whatever works.

I seldom check emails other than work. Actually if its the comcast account its no longer active.
I picked up the bike today and its got the expected layer of Ga Pine Polled on it so I'll clean her up tonight. Is this for your friend with the broken foot? It should fit her.
I'm looking for something that has the size stamped on it but I dont see anything yet. Are you in the Decatur area? I can clean it up and you can take a look at it this week.
I also have a couple of other frames, wheels, and a heap of other misc parts that I need to sell. I was planning on getting everything ready at once then posting it all at once.
Oh, Willi is such a cool dog. He's the most active grey I've seen! Between him and grahams "retriever" I need to set the bar a little higher for Zeus.
well
The friend with a broken foot already has a bike and the girl I was looking for is smaller than her. But I think I found one for her, just gotta do a check to see how much effort it would take to fix some things on it. But thanks a lot! If this one falls through, I'll let you know.
I have to say, I'm pretty interested in seeing if Willister will retrieve. That was fun to see!

I'm on the lookout for a smallish frame too. If you've got something in the 49-52 range in your stash, preferably steel, please don't hesitate to contact me.

why else
would I be going through the trouble of finding her a bike?
Point taken!
I think it is an FM universal: at any point in time someone on the site is always trying to find a bike for a cute girl.

i have a tiny bike that was found in my brother's basement. it would need to be a bit of a SOPO project. it's a light pink step through Schwinn. i'll try to look for the model and size.
