Bibi picked up her Giant Avail (2012 model) today and here it is.
Nice bike - I got the Shimano Click'R pedals on it for her, to give her an easier transition from the platforms she is used to, to clipless pedals. Click'R are a hybrid pedal designed for new clipless users. They require 60% less force to click in and out; and less rotation to release (8 degrees versus 13 degrees for typical clipless pedals).
She's quite excited about it - had a fit at the Giant shop and good to go. Now to get her some shoes!

Whoohoo. Nice one smiss.
That saddle looks a little, er, erect. Did she get a fit?

Cheers chaps - they gave her a fit at the bike shop, but I'm not sure how comprehensive it was. She's very happy with the bike though and took it for a little ride this afternoon. Must get her a Garmin or similar.
