Hey guys I'm planning to buy a fixie for my girlfriend. We were looking at the Macargi RD269 and she's ridden the 53cm and it felt slightly large for her height at 5'3". One size down is the 48cm but we couldn't try that one out. We were contacting this guy from Craigslist who has been ordering them in and selling them for $320 firm which I think is a pretty fair price based on eBay pricing.
I couldn't find this bike to be sold elsewhere locally. Now however I think we'll be buying it off eBay though because the seller hasn't returned any calls after that one time we met and tried out the bike.
Now my questions are, would 48cm be too small for her height at 5'3"?
When she rode the 53cm with the seat set the lowest, she was tip toeing on one foot while the other in the air, is this normal for a fixie?
Anywhere else I can look at to buy a fixie for under $350 brand new locally?
Sorry for asking so many questions. Tried searching but it was all motorbikes, didn't wanna make a new thread either. Hope you guys could help us out!
