Wanted - women's first racing bike c.50cm

[Natalia Franklin Pierce]

Hi all, 

I'm still looking to get a good starter racer bike for me (5'6 female) - probably a 50cm frame in case anyone has one knocking around that they're looking to sell. Budget is flexible but somewhere between £600-1400. Could be persuaded to go higher if the right bike comes along. 

Thanks! Natalia

Hi Natalia

Is someone helping with the sizing of a possible bike for you? I ask as 5'6" is not 'that' small and, whilst you'd probably be okay on a 50cm, don't rule out an e.g. 52cm frame.

Once you're sorted for size, then it's possible to pick up a reasonably good bike on ebay for not a lot of money.

Best

Steve

Hi Steve,

I gather it might depend on model and whether unisex/female model, so yeah could be open to a 52cm too...

Thanks
Natalia
