Hi Mr. Way -
I also have a miniature wife (freakishly so compared to my 6'4). Her
legs are pretty short for the rest of her. Not to get too personal,

are selling the bike is because it is really too small for her. She now
rides a 53 cm Heron touring and will soon ride a 53 cm Roadeo (with
Albatross bars) since her legs are relatively long. Her torso is short
