My daughter has expressed some interest in something CLASSIC LIGHTWEIGHT ,,how do you size a bike for someone who is long of leg and arm but short in body.Looks to me like she could straddle a 53/52 but a 53CM top tube would be a stretch. Hints and tips appreciated,I am thinking a 51CM with more post showing and a longer stem or a 53 or so with shorter
