Some women fit a man’s bike just fine. But it’s high time to extend the comfort range that men enjoy to the rest of us. Beyond anatomically-sensitive saddle shapes. It’s time for those of us with smaller hands, shorter torsos and narrower shoulders than a man, to stop punishing ourselves and start celebrating our bicycling bodies, from ankle to pelvis to head. WSD introduces women-friendly components greater comfort, support and efficiency. Cycling and Women Bicycling was originally for men when bikes had huge front wheels requiring great strength to manage. Bikes with equal-sized wheels emerged in the 1880s, and women fell in love with their agility and ease of riding. Men sneered at first, then ditched their tippy old high-wheelers. Love your bike, love the road Serious performance details combine to create Trek’s smartly-designed women’s-specific bikes that are ready to tackle miles on the road.
