Don't necessarily need a women's bike. Just one that has a frame that dips down instead of going straight across. There are a lot of men's cruisers that feature that kind of frame now. Oh also look into making an additional kick stand that holds up the back basket. nothing worse than seeing (or hearing) your bike crash as it falls over with all your expensive gear in it. Now that I mention it I need one of those lol Good luck post some pictures when you get it!
