Hi. Would the Simoncini I'm listing be too steep?

Sub £200 is going to be hard unless you get really lucky on the bay with an old Dawes Galaxy or similar.
I've had a hard time finding small size tourer myself and they rarely come up, hence sell for more. £300 is more realistic.
Or get the Simoncini for £395 with free "wow" looks. It doesn't take front loaders though. If you want that, old Dawes etc...

Only after frame and forks though so I thought £200 was a decent price.
The Simoncini looks a touch small. I should clarify I think she generally needs a 55/56cm frame but Salsa recommends a 51 for the casseroll.

Yeah then £200 should do. Touring bikes usually come up as "whole bikes" in my experience, but the CTC forum sometimes has F&F. a 55 is reasonably OK to get usually.
Happy hunting :)
As the title says. For a 5'6" ladyfriend. Would consider something similar to a casseroll though, looking for a lightweight tourer that's not too heavy and looks quite classic. Probably thinking sub £200.
Fingers crossed.
