Joe_Cogs Posted August 24, 2012 Share Invest in comfortable bedding Jokes aside, I got my bike for just over 3k. Not amazing but it does the job fine. So if she does not like it, you have not lost much. Then contact "slick" on the hub. He knows his stuff and does skills training courses for beginners upwards. Good luck!

blind Posted August 28, 2012 Share I agree , I wanted to upgrade anyway , and if she likes the cycling we can sell the Giant and buy her something better in 2 months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLACKvoodoo Posted August 28, 2012 Share The best thing to buy is something that's got nothing to do with cycling, that can distract her from it completely. Get her the 50 shades of Grey trilogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octavian Posted August 28, 2012 Share I have seen riding with a spouse contribute to ruining a relationship. My advise, don't do it. But if you do, dont ever tell her what to do. Let her ask you for help! Cav' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted August 28, 2012 Share Thanks for all the advice and "advice" Decided to upgrade mine and she gets to ride my Giant Thermo. So I bought this I hope that she is the same size as you? Riding a bike that is too big can put people off especially girls. A smaller bike is easier to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
