@horatio, I agree, but I would also caution that different kinds of bikes need different kinds of fit. The cargo bike leaves her sitting completely upright or almost. That is not her goal on the road bike, not should it be, so the goal is to get comfortable, not to match the fit entirely. Here is some stuff to get used to, and there is some stuff to adjust. Finding the difference is sometimes tricky.
