Here's a photo of my WSD bike. As you can see not all ladies bikes are pink, baby blue or "girly". I had a choice of 13 colours when I bought the frame.

 

I agree about resale being an issue. I decided to buy a bike that would last me a long time for that very reason. My previous bike was a mens small and it was way too big so WSD has definitely been beneficial for me.

I discovered the frame thanks to an entry in the Bicycling Buyer's Guide.

My issue is that all Ladies specific stuff is pink or baby blue. Why don't they have a black and red LSD bike??

Well spotted HR LOLEmbarrassed This photo wasn't taken at 5am after barely getting any sleep so I was more awake and observant. Don't think I will ever live down forgetting the carrier bar on my bike now will I Big%20smile

 

It is actually an old photo and I have made other changes too e.g. pedals, saddle, stem etc.

The Santa Cruz Juliana frame is the same price as its male counterpart. When I bought my bike the Scott Contessa was a lot cheaper than the male equivalent. Don't know if this is still the case.

"had nothing else"....yeah, yeah....good excuse.... NOT! LOL Well I don't think I could have made a worse first impression if I tried. Unbrushed hair, still walking around in the clothes I slept in, half asleep and three-quarters braindead. Embarrassed At least it was a memorable meeting for both of us.
