Wearing bike clothes is 1/2 the fun of riding a bike!  You must get
her proper equipment.

Cervelos are overpriced.  Winning the Tour de France (Carlos Sastre
with Team CSC) and at least a silver at the Beijing Olympics (the
Danish track team used Cervelo trackbikes) along with many other
high-profile wins puts their stock up, I guess...

I'd stick with a nice Italian bike, steel for the road, thanks.

My aluminium track frame has traditional track geometry, including a
horizontal top tube:

That's my baby, with the red handlebar grips (a send of track grips is
my latest addition) waiting out a shower on the weekend whilst I was
caffeinating).
