    what the standover height is on your motobecane?
    After spending a week scourering marketplace, i've probably looked at over 100 bikes. There are thousands to choose from around that $200 mark. I think bumping my budget up a bit brings me into a little better class of bike, that had a better lift it seems. Most around my mark look like they have spent there life outside.
    I talked with her today and her only preference is she wants a men's bike if it fits her. She wants something we both can ride, i don't really care either way.

    im going against the grain, I bought a Thule T2 from facebook marketplace with zero issues for over the years. Super easy to just throw the bike on and slide the clamp on top of the front tire with a little strap on the back. Plus you can find them used for 400-500 on market place.

    1up is nice but can be pricey (even used). Ive also ran across accidental issues with bikes not fitting due to lack of tools to adjust the tire size bar on those racks. Not a deal breaker, just carry tools or remember if they were adjusted for kids bikes lol.
