7 Best Bikes For Women Cyclists of 2024
From USNews.com
Finding a bike is challenging no matter your gender or sex. There’s a lot to consider when it comes to fit, saddle, frame geometry, components, and more. Julie Gabay, owner of Pacific Cycling & Triathlon in Stamford, Connecticut tells U.S. News 360 Reviews that “most brands have shifted away from women’s specific bikes, focusing instead on creating unisex models that accommodate a wider range of riders and promote inclusivity. Manufacturers are prioritizing bike fit over gender-specific designs.”

As a female cyclist and triathlete, I have plenty of experience looking for the perfect fit, but for this article, I’ve also consulted competitive and recreational cyclists, as well as accomplished cycling coaches, to help determine exactly what women should look for in a bike.
