Thanks for listening to my suggestions. Apropos of your mentioning standover height, absolutely true that we need that. In my search I have tried out bikes from more than one manufacturer who listed their small size "step through" (in reality mid-step with a sloped top bar) and, even though I was well within their listed range, I had negative to no standover clearance! That's a true bummer and a waste of time and money when you have to travel over a hundred miles just to try out a bike or order it online and have to pay shipping both ways for a bike that doesn't fit!

And thanks again for great reviews. Maybe you will consider doing new reviews on Gazelle's Medeo and Ultimate models, and please don't leave out the class one bikes. Not all of us are speed demons. Wink
