a 559 up front would bring the front end of the bike down considerably, unless she runs a fat tire, in which case she'd likely run into clearance issues and fender issues. Plus, she'd have to go brakeless unless she swapped the fork for something with disc mounts. Of course, now we need a new fork, the disc caliper, likely a new lever unless she goes with a "road" disc caliper, plus the disc aerospokes cost more... At least the 700c version can run with the existing fork and levers, and won't effect the geo noticeably...
Regardless, the fate of this project seems murky...
