Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum and looking for some advice please.
I've been riding my bike to work all my adult life and don't own a car. My commute is only 5 miles, but quite hilly. For this reason I use a commuterized mountain bike as the gearing helps with the hills.
Unfortunately, I was very ill a couple of months ago and am taking some time to build my strength back up. I can't get out on my bike as I can't manage the hills.
I am lookinhg to get a bike so that I can start going about my buisness by bike again.
I would be looking for a ladies step through frame, with the capability to carry panniers.
Other than that I'm pretty clueless.
I was browsing this forum yesterday and noticed the Whoosh Sant Ana, which looks like the sort of thing I'm after. I've had an email exchange with Hatti at whoosh who was very helpful and seemed to think the bike would be suitable.
Any advice or reccomendations would be welcome, I don't want to make an expensive mistake and buy the wrong bike.
Thanks in advance, Sara_H
