I have been telling the missus that we need to get her a better bike. She has a Halfrauds XC special from a few years ago and it weighs a ton.
I tried telling her it was set up wrong, but to no avail.. It took a ride out with PiperDave to suggest that she might want to adjust a few things, and lo and behold, a light shone through the darkness...
we went out today on a little pootle down to shoreham and back, but before we started she said..."could we put my saddle on your other GT and i take that out?"
a few tinkers later and the thin beam of light from the heavens became a full blown epiphany..
She has been dragged from the darkside, i am happy.
however..it cost me a bike :cry:
but i do get to replace it with another one :twisted:

Did a similar thing when I bought my Mrs a new bike years back. Made sure it fitted me, all it needs is to fit a longer stem and change her wide ass saddle.
