Not to Internet bike fit her but at 5'4 I would say you would want effective TT 52 max and probably less as women can often need shorter reach, right?

There's someone on Facebook selling a 52cm Kinsesis Tripster frame (brand new) in the luminous yellow variety for £250. With a bit of forum hunting for parts you could build something up around that budget...

Internet bike fit: I am 5'8" and my top tube is 52.5cm. But that's only half the picture due to seat and headtube angles which obviously vary wildly across frame geometry. But still - it shows that height is only one metric. I have a short torso.
This is where your LBS is your friend - if anyone even has any bikes that is.

With 700c wheels, price comes to near 900, as a self-build bundle. Choosing certain components. 1x with mech-disc brakes. Would be nice to have the JuinTech but that bumps up over budget.
Can take 700x38 or so, or 650b x 42.
If one of the frames had about a 360-365mm reach, you could run an 80-85mm stem.

Fishing expedition - Have about £800 to £900 to spend on a gravel bike, for the girlfriend. Size wise she's 5'4 so 53cm effective top tube or even smaller. Is anyone thinking about selling?
