Help! Bike for petite mother

[Nem]

Hi guys, I'm looking for an electric bike, I'm not sure what would work for me, any advice?

- I'm very short (5ft), 79cm inseam to the tips of my toes.
- I don't weight much, 47kg
- I'd like to carry my 1 year old daughter with me on the bike occasionally in the bike seat on rear rack
- only leisure biking on pavements, no steep hills
- budget of £1200

Woosh Rambletta.
It's a folding bike but it feels like a bigger bike.
It has a rack which can support the weight of a child.
It has a suspension seat post adding to your comfort.
It has a very decent battery and very good range, about 40 miles from a full charge.
It is within your budget too, £849 delivered.

Thanks! That was quick! Would Petite Santana also work for me? Do you do different colours?

 

[Woosh]

yes, but the Petite sold out last month.

 

[Nem]

But there will be more coming?
Can you get these in different colours?

 

[Woosh]

But there will be more coming?

we have stopped making the Petite due to lack of space.

we have stopped making the Petite due to lack of space.

So not quite petite enough , then

 

[Woosh]

assembling in UK takes more than twice as much storage space as before when we imported the bikes fully built.
The space taken by the Rambletta is about 60% of the Petite. You see the logic.

I like the look of the Rambletta

Mrs Gaz is a tad taller than you, and has a Wisper 705SE, which she loves, and is also very good.

Thanks I like that Wisper but it's over my budget. Rambletta seems ok but I really really don't want the bike to be black

I like both of them. And they're not black are there any disadvantages to 20" wheels though?

perfect if you are small.

 

[Nem]

You don't think it's dangerous for my daughter or something like that? She'll be quite close to the ground...

 

[Woosh]

more stable when you are small and light.
You control a smaller bike (but not too small) better than a large one.
Don't buy a heavy bike though.
