Womens Bike
I am looking for a bike for my wife for her birthday.
She currently has an Unisex XS Giant XTC, but finds it a bit of a stretch to ride, and uncomfortable.
She only rides fairly short distances, a few miles mainly with the kids and generally along tarmac, with a little off roading over grass, hills, grassy sand dunes.
I have seen the Womens Carrera Hellcat in Halfords that looks okay for her needs, and have also been looking at the Liv range of bikes.
I would however appreciate any information anyone has, happy to spend £300-600, but obviously cheaper the better but want to meet her needs so don't mind going over budget if needed.
The new bike is a surprise, so can't take her to try a few.

sorted byMy concern would be, if you buy one without trying it for size, then you could have the same issue! (edited)
