Women bicycle for the very short petite help.

The local bike shop fitted & suggested a Trek FX 7.2 15" size hybrid for my gf. She has been riding it for a couple years now. On long rides her arms gets tired and have discomfort/pain from the saddle (pubic rami region). Watching her form and positioning seems like she needs to leaning forward to reach the handle bar.

She is 4'10" (147.32cm) tall. Looking at sizing charts online shows he needs a 13" frame size instead of 15". Few others seem to suggest 650c wheel size bikes too. However, I'm having a hard time finding bikes that size. The local bike shop doesn't have any, the FX 7.2 was the smallest one they carry already.

Any suggestion/recommendation which to get?
