So after telling me a bike Trek Lexa (£700) would be instore by early October it has now been changed to January 21st 2013. Left me in the lurch as I promised her a new bike for her birthday (August).
Anyone out there can recommend a womens specific road bike preferbly in black, but will look @ other colours.

I have looked a lot of shops are saying pickup instore based in the Lakes!

It's the LBS's supplier not the LBS (generally), as dates often get pushed later due to supply issue to them.

I think trek only allow dealers to supply via a shop, not mail order?

Yes its the suppliers cock up, Lbs have been pretty helpfull but not busted a gut!

Looking @ other models the Canyon looks a good price not to sure on size, any pointers on Canyon road bike sizing would be good!

all the geoms are available online - compare the trek to the canyon to get the right sizing
