joggie prinsloo Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Would you like to see more ladies specific bicycles in the market?
David #7 Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Bugger the bicycles would like to just see more ladies.
Willehond Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Are they not just a marketing gimmick? Ladies are people too you know, why do they have o be more "upright"? Can't they handle a racing position? Apart from saddles, I see no reason why they should be any different. Oh, an of course being pink is critical as well....

cyclenut Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 I bought my wife one of these . . . (upgrade from the Fuji Roubaix Pro) Full Carbon. Ultegra spec. Compact Crank.The levers are designed to be nearer the bars to cater for shorter fingers.The geometry is better suited to the female figureAnd it's purple - go figure.
Kriek Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Ai Joggie, wat try jy nou weer.Pleks jy my liewers reply op die mail wat ek jou gestuur het.
AndreZA Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Cyclenut, I saw one of those in the shops the other day and I must say it's a pity it's a girls bike because it is really a super sexy bike.
Strawberry Mama Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Wie doen nou alweer poll dancing? Of is iemand alweer op die poll?

Anyone got some cash for Roubaix Pro - 54cm - 10months old

I see Leontien van Moorsel, JaenieLongo-Ciprelli, Nicole Cooke, Kristin Armstrong ride regular frames, sowhat's the big deal? Seems like a clever marketing ploy to relieveinnocents from hard earned dollars..[/quote'] And of course red is faster... That's why my bike goes so slow...
Willehond Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 bob, you are starting to quote your own posts. Time to take a break mate!
