Hi my name is Maria I'm looking for a women's bike with a motor can someone help prefer Schwin
The step through frame was made for women because during the time it first came out women predominantly wore dresses. This way women didn't have to lift their leg as high and possibly exposing their under garments when mounting the bike. Tradition has kept these bikes being made.Have you considered just getting a man's frame? I've never quite figured out why women's frames are missing the top tube when it's the men that will suffer the most from an impact there. Women's frames are never as rigid and strong as a men's frame. My suggestion is, ignore the entire idea of women's and men's frames, and just buy a frame that works.
I do believe the whole notion of women's frame styles arose from the old days when women wore nothing but dresses, but I'm not 100% positive. I think it was to facilitate wearing your Sunday best while riding a bike. An outdated notion that I think we could simply do away with at this point.
Welcome to the forum. There has been mid frame, rack and friction builds done on the forums in the past using a step through frame. So it can be done. You can also get women's bikes that have a standard top tube as well.Hi my name is Maria I'm looking for a women's bike with a motor can someone help prefer Schwin
