hey guys,
I saw a posting around my place for a specialized rockhopper for $50. The thing is that the frame size is 13 inches, I am about 5' 5" (I think my frame size would be 15 ")
Do you guys think it is worth it to buy the bike. I was thinking about moving the back seat as far back as possible and stuff to "make it" fit my size. my gf is about 5' 1" would it be a better size for her?
Should I get the bike even if it isnt within my size (and try to adjust it so that it wont kill me to ride the bike)?
Thanks guys.
