Women's Hybrid Bike Advice Please!!
Hello!
Pretty new to cycling but want to take it up for leisure/fitness purposes. I will be mainly riding either on roads (on the way to cycling tracks) or cycle trails but may go off-track (though not likely to go on bumpy tracks). I've found 2 bikes which I think would be suitable. I'm after something quite lightweight and with front suspension which i can 'lock-out' if i'm riding on roads. Please could you let me know your thoughts as to the two bikes i've narrowed it down to? Any advice appreciated! My budget is £250-£300.
Many thanks, Laura.

Neither are particularly good value, also at this price point the women's specific bikes suffer on value more than men's bikes.

My daughter is shorter than you but has always used a conventional frame.

Because the topic remains current? Because it might still be useful to new riders? Or because it's there?
