    Hoping to get something in the sales for around the €1,000 mark but can't find any reasonable x-small ones. Am tempted by the Giant Trinity on Wiggle but would prefer to get something smaller if possible as that's 46.5 and a long head-tube for that size frame.

    Any suggestions appreciated....

    They'd a white & pink one on ebay not too long ago: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Planet-X-STEALTH-pro-carbon-650-frame-/110612926322?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item19c10b4f72
    Could be worth keeping an eye on that seller's page

    A clubmate who is *tiny* had to get one custom made from the US, worked out as cheap as a decent off the peg bike. Can get details if required.

    Tunney, any details would be appreciated, don't mind if I have to build myself as I have plenty of bits and pieces I could use.

    Ya the Planet X bikes have a long seat tube though. Giant do a womens version of the trinity which is available in 43.5cm which would be ideal only for the colour! Looking for a male (albeit small) bike!
