My roommate is looking for a used road bike for not too much $. She's 5'2, anyone have something that might fit? Don't want to buy many parts to get going, otherwise not picky about equipment.

i've got a pretty small pugeot road bike that andre's trying to sell, not sure how it'd fit someone 5'2" but it's a good bike.

I have a terry sitting in closet. bought it for my 5'1" wife. She didn't ride it much because she doesn't have the body geometry Terry had in mind when they built that bike.

Could probably use some work on the brakes. Canti's that just don't seem right somehow. Has no pedals and no seat. Ultegra and/or 105.

Price can be negotiated.

Hi,
I'm actually looking for a bike now too and having difficulty getting something in my size.
I'm just shy of 5'6" and 49-52cm seems about the ball park. Would either of these bikes be in that range?

I'm definitely interested in the peugot... would it have horizontal drop outs by chance?

Would you know what the asking price for the bike is with a student discount? :)

I would love to build something up around an internal hub
