There's also an oversized saddle bag because she wanted room to store lots of stuff. Oh and the pedals are strap, she hadn't graduated to clipless yet.

If worse comes to worst, I'll drop the money on a Specialized Dolce Comp for her since that's the bike she wanted anyway, but I'd much rather not... I am supposed to use that money for a different large purchase... but if it gets her back on the road, it's well worth it.

So now it's gone from mint condition to a used bike with scrapes and tape? Well there ya go right there, that's easliy a trailer trash target!
