Let's see your Mrs's bike (not a metaphor)

The wife's Stumpjumper....

I tried to get her into bikes 10 years ago but she hated it until i built this for, Now i cant get her off it, She loves the simplicity of single speed and the freedom of being outdoors.... I knew i'd convince her eventually :D

Mrs Mk1Matt's early 90's Hahanna. Perfect size for her given that she's a mere 5' tall! Lots of lovely retroness, including 200GS thumbies!

Not retro but here's Mrs Archangel's bike:

After the pic has been taken, I have changed the RD to XTR M952, saddle to Selle Italia Ldy Sport and the tyres will be changed to Schwalbe's Furious Freds.

Weighs now 10.9kg and after the tyre change something like 10.6kg.
 
Think everyone has seen a pic of the bike belonging to Shamus's lady.

On a par with Stew-B in the coolness stakes!

Now that is nice. Im quite liking the Kona route so far because of the geometry.
