Hi,
I'm really struggling to find a frame to fit after I wrote off my old bike that fit me perfectly. I'm after a vintage racer men's frame but needs to be under 50cm on the top tube as I'm only 5"2. I bought one that I was told would fit that's 53cm and it's too much of a reach (with the shortest drop handlebars possible) (it was custom built so I didn't get to test it until it was made). I've been told I might need to get one with 26" wheels which I don't mind about as long as the bike fits!

My price range is up to £600 for the whole bike or a couple of hundred for a nice frame. I'm in hackney, and I'll consider anything.
Thanks!
Sarah

My wife is looking to sell this: http://www.pedalroom.com/bike/tokyo-fixed-dream-machine-48cm-missus-12151#photo164584

She is 5'2" as well. It'll be cheaper than your budget for whole bike and has some nice bits. PM me if interested.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
