The ladies’ frame’s very low step-over height is convenient for stopping and for getting on and off. That’s especially helpful in town, with stops at stores and when you have your S.U.B. loaded. Women and men can equally appreciate the convenience of avoiding the Giant Leg Swing.
BUT… While perfectly capable of handling regular loads, the geometry of a ladies’ frame is not as strong as the diamond frame. If you think you’ll be carrying 100-pound-plus cargoes with frequency over the life of your bike, you should get the diamond frame. This goes for all S.U.B. models and brands we sell.
A comfy and simple entry-level SUB for shopping, cruising, and short commutes. It may be inexpensive, but it will probably be more useful than any bike you’ve ever owned. Includes a chainguard for keeping your pants clean and your calves safe.
