I'm short and I've always ridden 26" bikes, but the other day we were at one of our LBS with the SO and I fell in love at first sight with a Kona Mohala. I'm not thinking about switching my bike yet -though that Kona is really tempting me- but I was it got me thinking if it was possible for me to ride such a big bike comfortably? (since I'm slowly running out of option as more and more manufacturers choose this size for women's bike). The LBS had the Kona in only one size (two sizes bigger than my current bike) so I wasn't able to properly test and feel the bike and if it'd be comfortable for me.
These bikes look SO BIG and kinda intimidating I'm afraid to get out of my 26" comfort zone. And when I say I'm short, I'm reaaally short, barely 5'. Long legs and short arms.
So, any shorties out there rocking the 29ers?
