The bike that kitty suggested is a Boy’s bike (24″ wheels). I’ll take it for granted you are ready to step up to an adult bike. Once into the 26″ wheels, bikes are measured by frame size to fit anyone from 5′ 2″ tall up to 6′ 6″ tall. I thinking a 16″ frame for you. To know for sure, visit a real bike shop & have the sales staff suggest what they think.
You stated, “reasonably priced”. I hope you don’t mean as in a discount store – because I don’t list discount store bikes. They fall apart too quickly & are basically junk.
If you can assemble one yourself, start looking at Diamondback bikes on Amazon.com. Link below…
For a bike shop bike, a Raleigh Talus 2.0 is about $300. A Trek 820 – slightly higher. These are the most reasonably priced bikes I would recommend.
