Probably not, you need a rather expensive rear wheel with a internally geared 7spd hub, which in and of itself probably would cost as much as the Raliegh single-speed. I don't know if the singlespeed would be set up with the proper cable stops and routing for the shifter cables or not either. I'd just get her a gift card from the shop and stick it in a Raleigh catalog and wrap that up or something.
