I have been looking for a new bike for a while but I have a problem - I'm very short.
I'm 1490mm high and my current bike has a stand-over height of 711mm. Most makers don't go down this low. I know I need one with a 26" wheel and I have been looking at the 'new' gravel/adventure bikes. But even so they are pretty nearly all too big (they look lovely tho). I have now narrowed it down to a small Thorn bike, either a Raven Sport Tour or a Sherpa.
I want a bike for shopping, day touring, longer touring possibly with a tent, and a bit of rough-stuff (hence the gravel bikes). I have no intention of going on an expedition. Europe will do for me but I do like to go on tracks etc (but no mud unless I have to!).
Can anyone offer me any advice?
