Bike wanted for 5'2" beginner, triple preferred

[Hollybush]

Hi, I'm looking for a bike for my daughter who has just started cycling. Probably around the 50-52cm range maybe 20-21.5". Something with drop bars and not too heavy, preferably with a triple or compact chainset and mudguard eyes would be great. Thanks, Gez.

21.5" = 55cm = FAR TOO BIG for 5'2" beginner!

48cm - 50cm(18.5" 19.5") I would say, other more expert folks may have more to say

Whereabouts are you ?

OP didn't say what height his daughter is! If any help I'm 5' 3 1/2" and I ride a 19" frame. Watch out for top tube length too - some are way too long for us ladies as men tend to have longer backs/shorter legs. Get it wrong and it's like being on arack and you don't want to put her off.

OP said 5' 2" in the thread title...
