    8+ months of research, 100s of hours, know what I need & want but can't find it

    I thought I said that I got a Small Turbo Vado. That's the entire problem, standover height, not frame geometry. This wasn't a big problem with mechanical bikes. All decent manufacturers made small enough triangle frames for my inseam and we could just replace the stem with a longer one to...

    Handlebars: Back sweep angle?

    Thank you for your help. I did just finish writing a more detailed post on what I'm looking for and need on the "buying advice" forum, thinking that is where I should really start.

The bike shop mechanic didn't say anything about changing the angle of...

    Ergonomic adjustment / suspension stem for Gazelle bike?

    Handlebars: Back sweep angle?

    I'm new here and I'm not sure if I'm replying to the correct post so please help me here. I wound up reading this thread because I just tried out the Trek Verve + (they only had the 2 and I am thinking of ordering the 4) mostly because of my very short inseam. I need the XS size but wasn't...
