I already said you could. I just need the money first. Won't be for a few more months, maybe tax time. Then I can spend somewhat freely.
In the meantime, I will hit my bike shops and throw their ideas at you and we'll bang heads back and forth.

I need a bike for a short person.
I need shock absorbers of some sort in the front and if they make them for the back, YES, I want that too. All that hardware in my spine screams a little on the roots across the trail.

I want on/off road capabilities.
I want handlebars that are straight across and have that ram's horn extension below so I can "get down and dirty" when I need it.
I want all metal working parts, especially in the shifters.
I want goodies too like a rack like I have over the back tire so I can carry shit if I stop at a store. Saddle bags too.
I want a trip meter.
I want metal pedals, not that plastic shit.
I want a comfy seat.
I want comfy grips.

I want baseball cards on the tires
I want streamers.
I want a bell.

I don't want a pink bike but having it a little feminine is OK. Just a little.

Am I too demanding?
