Hello! I am hoping for some insight from fellow sistas and thought this forum would be the best way to get some advice. Hope you don't mind my noob questions and hope it is okay to ask here!
Any other moms out there? I am a mom of 4 little ones. With my oldest just 8 and my youngest 2, my time has been focused on the family. I need do some self care and get into a new sport...one that I haven't ever tried but want to! How do I find the beginner type trails or do I just go for the parks for now and work my way to trails? Can anyone help me decide on an entry level bike? I will def be trying out what is recommended although that will be difficult bec I am 5' 1" and many shops don't seem to have this size to try out on the floor. I am on a budget ($450) also. I have tried out a 13" GT Transeo at Performance Bike but since it is the only one that was in my size, it is the one the guy showed me. Reading in here, I have read that I should go for hardtail, with disk brakes, small or better yet xsmall?
Any thoughts to help me out are greatly appreciated! Thank you!
