This is a special bike for my wife. A mountain bike. She is very light and rides very light. Making a light bike is one thing, getting it to flex just right is quite another.

It's going to be capable of single speed or gears. She's probably not going to ride the bike much, 'cause she likes her suspension bike so much, but this will give us maximum flexibility with just a little more weight for this goofball bike.
