I have decided to join last minute on a mountain bike ride in Haiti (MTB Ayiti) at the end of January and now must find a mountain bike.  Looking to find a 29er, preferably full suspension, for under $1,000 in the next week or two.  I am 5'3, female and believe a medium sized frame fits well.

If anyone has a potential bike for sale, any creative ideas on finding the right bike or, even better, a spare bike I could 'rent' for the week--please get in touch at any time.

Thank you!

Katie
