Re: [RBW] ISO 59cm Bleriot FFHS
How tall? My wife is 5'9 and I built her up a white 58cm Soma Buena Vista mixte (if you want to consider new). We both think it's the bomb. There's room for a taller rider in that size. Not sure if there is a size larger as well. It sure is a pretty bike. I would not say feminine but certainly not mannish.

RE: [RBW] ISO 59cm Bleriot FFHS
And there are examples of that frame being built with 650B on the web -- works well, and is quite attractive. I've thought about doing one of those myself, but I keep coming back to the Foy. -Original Message- From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of bobish Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2012 7:06 PM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [RBW] ISO 59cm Bleriot FFHS How tall?

[RBW] ISO 59cm Bleriot FFHS
So my wife who is tall (and pretty) wants a pretty bike and says the MB2 is too mannish to be cruising around the hip(?) streets of Brooklyn. She of course likes 650b since it is suddenly cool so I tried to sell her on a Sam but she liked the looks of the Bleriot so thought I would cast a net out there to see if anyone has a Frame/Fork/ Headset they wanted to part with. I will be doing the build since she likes IGH hubs for around town riding. Any condition really is fine as long as there are no dents/accident damage. I can do re-sprays in my yard with some yummy toxic paint if needs be. I know this is a long shot but if you never ask you never know. Thanks all.

Re: [RBW] ISO 59cm Bleriot FFHS
If she wants 650b, how about Vince's Saluki which was posted recently? I've seen it up close and it's in great shape. jim m wc ca On Wed, Aug 29, 2012 at 2:24 PM, Peter M uscpeter11...@gmail.com wrote: So my wife who is tall (and pretty) wants a pretty bike and says the MB2 is too mannish to be cruising around the hip(?) streets of Brooklyn.

Re: [RBW] ISO 59cm Bleriot FFHS
An admittedly stunning bike but for the amount she rides seems like overkill.
