Bike too heavy…
Bike too heavy…
Got a big bike on finance before I finished my IBT, and although it’s grand on the straight, I’m finding ‘stop turns’ and roundabouts… any precision required turns at all really, too difficult. Anyway I was planning on just practicing but I fell off it today and couldn’t lift it up and it’s really knocked my confidence..
I’ve only been riding approx 3 weeks, occasionally, and I absolutely love it but really feel a lighter frame would be better, especially while I am learning.
My questions are, can I transfer finance to another bike (too embarrassed to ask the shop yet) and if so, any ideas on an appropriate bike for an 8 stone, 5ft 4 girl?
Ideally with both feet touching the ground and one that I could lift up if I fell again…:confused:
