Message:	Good news bad news here. Trek's WSD is designed totally for lighter, different shaped female riders and all the girls / women I know who've tried them would nowreccomend nothing else to 9 out 0f 10 cat owners. they come in 3 spec. levels from £600 - £1000 and none of them are in pastel colours. The Scott and Giant bikes make efforts with the frame geometry and sizing but don't stretch as far as specific sized componentry. The Raleigh BoB is massively heavy and not really ripe for serious off roading. The other good news is that both Cannondale and North Wave do female specific SPD shoes, but as yet no one seems to believe women ever cycle in anything but scorching summer weather so there's no winter kit around. There are some enlightened shops out there who'll track down what you want but unfortuantely it's not as many as there should be. Why bikes in Llanrhyaedr Y Mochnant, Bike doctor in Manchester, Brixton bikes in brixton (yes really), Wheelie serious bike company (Covent Garden), York Cycleworks and Edinborough bike Co op are ones that spring to mind immeadiately. Hope this helps
