I have a radical suggestion. Ask Georgena Terry. She's very approachable. Haven't looked in a couple of years but I'm sure her website is up and running.

I contacted her through it and got a nice reply from her. (I love what she did for women's cycling, I raced when women either managed (or not) on men's bikes or had an in with a framebuilder. I rode about a 1000 miles one summer with a woman who could fit decently on a stock Masi. And a year of ferry rides from Seattle with a woman on an ill fitting Motobecane. Mid-winter, she got a Terry. What a change!)

Since my contact with Terry, I've read interviews with her and heard her love of sharing her knowledge and abilities with other women. I'm sure she would both welcome the contact and have some solid advice.
