  Thanks @KT_Bee, that’s interesting what you say about women’s bikes assuming different proportions. I think I’m just going to have to get her on a few bikes and see how she gets on.
  Thanks again

  Hello all!
  I’m after a bit of advice.
  I’m wanting to buy my sis a bike for her birthday and although I know a bit about bikes for men I’m not sure if there are other things I should consider when buying for a woman (geometry/fit etc)?

  She’s after a road bike to keep fit, she’ll not be doing huge distances on it (probs no more than 50km). It’ll be second hand as I have limited budget (probs no more than around £500) and probs steel or aluminium for cost. More endurance geo for comfort I think.

  Any things I should consider and all recommendations really appreciated.
  Thanks all!

• Wanted: The large frames for sale thread 25" or 64cm what have you got?

  Probably a wee bit small for me (along with every other bike) but might fit one of you other vertically endowed chaps?

  @scotts aero bars on a gravel bike shit you’re brave! Haha.
  Oh thanks for the SOMA tip. Didn’t know they did a 66cm.
  I’m soooo tempted by the titanium build from Waltly that @pjhobs has. Such a great looking bike.
  Thanks for the pointers guys

  That is basically the bike I want, probably with similar geometry!
  Presumably the sliding rear dropouts are for allowing space for larger tyres?

  @pjhobs
  Ooooohhh that’s what I’m talking about!
  Who made that for you? I was looking at some custom builders. Burls look good but were a little out of my price range but £700 is an absolute bargain for the frame alone. I’m happy to slowly build up the other components as and when I can afford them.
